Hot Tuna- 25 Years & Runnin' / Live at Sweetwater
Executive Producers: Hot Tuna, KQED-PBS
Produced & Directed by Jesse Block
Production
period: 1992
Many years before MTV utilized the "Unplugged"
formula to showcase musical acts in acoustic settings, Jorma
Kaukonen and Jack Casady travelled a similar path, diverging
from their respective roles in the Jefferson Airplane group
to create an acoustic alternative that would be known as Hot
Tuna. Exploring a twenty-five year legacy, this concert documentary
is the first of two programs to focus on Hot Tuna, using the
intimate Sweetwater Saloon of Mill Valley, California as a
backdrop for their story. Octalouie director Jesse Block created
this program back in 1992, utliizing Octalouie partner Eric
Predoehl on handheld camera for this intimate portrait. Produced
in conjunction with San Francisco's PBS affiliate station
KQED, this program is widely available on both DVD and VHS.
