These previously unreleased 1965 recordings, recently unearthed by Jorma’s wife Vanessa in a long-forgotten family attic box, offer a unique glimpse into the early days of Jorma Kaukonen—just before Jefferson Airplane. Restored from the original master tapes, these tracks capture the folk spirit of a young man searching for his voice. To celebrate his 85th birthday, Jorma finally shares them: an intimate, raw, and precious journey into the heart of a formative era.
