Timeless window into man's soul,
By aspiring saint "TATITTLE" (in the moment zone) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)
This is the Jorma album that stands the test of time best for me. His playing is spontaneous and driven by feeling rather than technique as it usually is. Songwriting is divinely inspired. It is not unusual for artists to create masterpieces during turbulent times in their lives...perhaps because we are closest to God in weakness, and the best songwriting involves powers more mysterious and elusive than logic, education, and technique. Unfortunately my copy was lost during a turbulent period in my own life! It is worth the money to replace it.

Great album from one of Rocks classic guitarists! Jorma is smokin' on this one... On par with Quah, his first album.

This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)
This is one of Jorma's best albums, solo acoustic there is so much feeling in "Ice Age"or "Radical Sleep"you can almost feel the pain comming of the guitar strings.The original version of "Too Many Years"is here too.It has all the feeling of a live preformance.If your a Jorma fan get this if you think Jorma is just OK get this

Odd recording.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)
It is not so much the material (Ice Age is a classic) that sabotages this recording as it is the guitar work. Normally, Kaukonen is one of the most gifted of acoustic blues guitarists but here he sounds as if he is in need of drug-rehab. His natural warmth and fluidity is lost to some of the coldest and choppiest playing of his recorded career. It was if he hadn't picked up the guitar in ages. Quah and the two Live At Stillwater disc's present Jorma in a much better (and acoustic) light. Give this one a pass...Simon

This CD will get you into it,
By christian bergman (Sweden) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Too Hot to Handle (Audio CD)
It can't get any better than this!Best on the CD is the beautiful "Too many years" and the more bitter "Ice Age". If you're not familiar with Jorma Kaukonen's style, this CD will get you into it. |
