Welcome to Fluxedo Junction! Each episode we bring you the best music of all genres from throughout the world, and this week we'll be speaking with Jorma Kaukonen & John Hurlbut, who have a new album together called The River Flows. John Hurlbut and Jorma have been friends since 1984. After working together in the late ’80 and early 90’s, including shows where John opened for Jorma or Hot Tuna, their friendship solidified largely based on musical interests and shared talents. Being close friends and neighbors John and Jorma have done and do a lot of spontaneous picking with each other. Jorma loves to provide lead flourishes backing up John’s signature vocals and rhythm guitar. So, while “staying in place” at the Fur Peace Ranch Jorma and John were able to capture their friendship on vinyl!Now Culture Factory USA has released The River Flows by Jorma Kaukonen and John Hurlburt on red splatter translucent vinyl, in a gatefold package with a booklet that includes an interview with Jorma & John conducted by Paul Epstein (Owner Twist & Shout Records, Denver, CO)! The recording in all formats, vinyl, CD, and album download, will be available December 25! The River Flows was produced by Jorma at his Fur Peace Ranch in Ohio and engineered and mixed by Justin Guip, three-time Grammy winner and Hot Tuna drummer.
