1. This was the typewriter tape,no?

Jorma Kaukonen is solid, and, damn, Janis Joplin had had some pipes!

[OAITW r.2.0]

2. You are correct!

It was the whole tape that I posted Listen to Janice doing ?Down and Out" she was right there with Jorma....

3. We should tip a glass for Chet Helms for having the vision....

to see what potential Janis Joplin had, and drive out to the Bay area

Inventing a Time Machine is on my bucket list so I could go back to the Red Dog Saloon in Virginia City, Nevada and witness Janis joining Big Brother and the Holding company.

4. so when you invent that time machine, make it at 2 or 4 seater.

i'd pay to go see this (not a lot, I'm not rich, but could pay some). Janis is the bomb, the major real deal and I would have so loved to see her in her younger days and that would be a date I'd definitely pick. i'd also go see young Jim Morrison on a semi-sober night in LA, back in the beginning.

Edit - fixed typo

5. It's gonna be a bus, Baby!

6. Good answer!

7. We're scheduling two stops at the Whisky a Go Go

We're dropping in the night Jim Morrison got The Doors fired. Jim was totally whacked out on LSD that night, but it was an epic ad-lib performance of the 'The End'.

We're also going to catch Janis Joplin's last public appearance. She wasn't performing, but kinda celebrating because she was finishing up her studio work on her first solo album.

8. I so approve of this message.

9. Where can I get a copy of this?!

Two of my faves jamming! I'm in heaven!

10. Not sure it was ever released commercially.

I stumbled across a copy of this years ago...maybe on Napster? It's out there on Youtube and Google music.
Recorded in 1964.

11. 1964!

Jesus, I thought for sure this had to be '67 - '68, and then I saw the date.

Thanks for the tip off. I'm now on a quest!

Best wishes.

12. Fun little Jorma Kaukonen factoid

Jorma never has, and never will yodel in public. When he plays Jimmie Rodgers standards, with the request yodels, he plays them on his on his sweet Martin.

Believe it or not, that's Louis Armstrong's trumpet at the beginning!

13. Dylan yodeled at the behest of Johnny Cash

during their 1969 jam.

It weren't pretty.
