Quah - Blues Guitar masterpiece

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Jorma Kaukonen was the "engine room", driving such great bands as Hot Tuna & later Jefferson Airplane. His musical abilities are brilliant and they are showcased on this album - absolute mastery of the blues guitar genre - well worth having.

A stones throw from Hot Tuna.

 Album Rating: (4 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: If you like blues, and you liked Hot Tuna, this is a CD you want in your collection.

Where's the Jacket?

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: One of my first girlfriends embroidered her jacket with the cover art from this classic. I met her in a van going to the old Palladium in NYC to see Hot Tuna - she was dating my bud Charlie at the time. This music is timeless and beautiful. If any one who was in that van reads this you can find me on the web - drop a line.

AND BREATHING FELT LIKE SOMETHING NEW

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: A kindred spirit sent me the Quah cassette a few years ago. I recall playing it for the first time alone in my car, and feeling swept away in what I can only describe as a hynotic swirl of transcendence.
A mystical, gentle, sensual, erotic and loving piece of musical brilliance.

A record you should own

 Album Rating: (5 of 5 stars)

Review Comments: Because you certainly will find some good moments, a lot I want to think, to listen to it. Alone or together with your best friend, or girlfriend. Music helps us to give colour to particular days and then those experiences use to remain in our minds linked with the music we actually listened in the period. I have to say that I know, I can assure you that you will want to link some moments, some experiences of your life to the music contained in Quah. This album is special it has a melodic quality that is very tender, very warm, very human. Is is so warm to listen to Jorma and his guitar, playing their hearts out in this record from the seventies. This music is great. It is so american in a sense. I really love it and Jorma play great arrangements on the acoustic guitar. It is one of the acoustic guitar albums I love the most, together with music by Michael Hedges, Leo Kottke, James Taylor, Jim Croce, Ralph Towner, Pat Metheny few more. I perfectly know how different could sound James Taylor and Michael Hedges,Jim Crose and Ralph Towner but the acoustic guitar put them in close relation to me and I enjoy them all. I did buy this album in the eighties when I was a growing musician, a young guitarist hungry for flashy things and so at that time it didn't impressed me that much. I listen to it just once then I forgot about the thing. Now I have bought the remastered cd edition and I find a marvellous album because now that I passed some bad things, I know the beauty of tenderness. Maturity is a nice thing sometimes. Best to you all. Buy this record.
