Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen founded Hot Tuna as a Jefferson Airplane side project in 1969, when Grace Slick was recovering from throat node surgery that had left her unable to perform. They made up a trio with the harmonica player . For early performances, Paul Kantner and the drummer Joey Covington joined in. In the 1970s, Hot Tuna became a full-time band, and the style became more rock oriented. For their second LP, fiddler Papa John Creach and drummer Sammy Piazza joined the band. Later, the band changed to a power trio with Bob Steeler on drums.
