5 out of 5 stars Two Great Hot Tuna Albums On One CD.......2007-06-28

YELLOW FEVER/HOPPKORV features two great Hot Tuna albums on one CD. The former shows the band in all of its hard-rocking, blues-based glory, whereas the latter displays more of a pop direction while still featuring hot guitars from Jorma Kaukonen and top-flight bass playing by Jack Casady. The cover of Buddy Holly's "It's So Easy" here beats the dickens out of Linda Ronstadt's desecration of the same song two years later. Kaukonen's and Casady's advocacy of sanctions against Indonesia in retaliation for that country's trumped-up 2005 drug-smuggling conviction of a young Australian tourist makes this CD an essential purchase for both your ears AND your conscience.

5 out of 5 stars HOT FREAKIN' TUNA.......2007-06-09

From about '73 to '77 (high school) I saw Tuna about a dozen times. Yellow Fever captures their "Live" 3 man band, and Hopkorv juices it up with a couple of extra parts. Key tracks: Sunrise Dance w/ the Devil and Jelly Roll Blues from Fever, Watch the North Wind Rise and Wish You Would from Hopkorv. Great Covers include Jimmy Reed's Baby What You Want Me To Do and Muddy Waters' Can't Be Satisfied. Great idea to put these two albums onto one cd.

5 out of 5 stars "At least you got to try this time.".......2007-06-08

As the author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" and a former radio disc-jockey, I am often asked to write and or discuss various recordings from the 60's and 70's.

Hot Tuna's second of three releases during the Metal Years according to Jorma (the others being "America's Choice" and "Hoppkorv") is pulsating in its delivery of pure rock and roll.

Starting the record with two cover songs "Baby What You Want Me To Do" (Jimmy Reed) is the definitive version. Jorma's guitar explodes through the speakers and Jacks thunderous bass and the always underrated drumming of Bob Steeler is right there in line. "Hot Jelly Roll Blues" brings down the tempo a few notches but not the enjoyment. The lyrics seem to come from Jorma's heart and it's four minutes of good time rock music.

"Free Rein" is a tornado destroying anything in the way. The emotion of the players and intensity makes you feel part of the studio.

"Sunrise Dance With The Devil" doesn't let you recover. It pierces the armor with ferocious force.

During "Song For The Fire Maiden" you are sucked in by the pure five alarm warning. Jorma once again playing tasty licks as the frenzy unfolds.

"Bar Room Crystal Ball" softens the assault. Well crafted lyrics and music played in gorgeous style.

"Half/Time Saturation" breaks the sound barrier. It will resonate through anything fortified.

"Surphase Tension" ends the ambush with Jorma's guitar sounding perfect with its unique sound. At a shade under four minutes it would have been superlative to resonate double the time.

When I spoke to drummer Bob Steeler for "Take Me To A Circus Tent" I had inquired why Jorma brought in the services of an outside member John Sherman to play some guitar on the record. Bob told me "If Jorma did some overdubs it would still be Jorma playing and adding layers of his sound." For those that have always thought the San Francisco albums of the 60's and 70's were nothing more than an excuse to go on the road, they obviously don't know Jorma and Jack.

Enjoy the music and be well,
Craig Fenton
Author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent"


5 out of 5 stars A MUST!.......2006-02-15

Jorma and Jack are solid electric on one of their finest and superbly crafted recording endeavors on Yellow Fever, one of my absolute favorite Hot Tuna albums, from the first moment I heard it. Their guitar and bass communicate to each other beyond what words can describe-only your ears will understand how well they collaborate and weave in and out of each others realm with their skillful tightness. Their music is in a category of their own and totally unique in the history of rock (and roll). Their talent and abilty to take blues and spin it somewhere else has always amazed me. This album demands listening and sounds just a fresh today as it did wihen it was first released years ago.

5 out of 5 stars Their Best Studio Album.......2005-12-22

Jorma anymore is known more for his ragtime blues playing. However if you have ever seen him play electric, you will realize that while he is an excellent ragtime player, he is a very unique and unbelieveable electric player.

Next to Double Dose, unavailable on CD as far as I know, this is as close as it gets to Jorma's very best feedback psychedelic super heavy jamming. The first song alone will knock your socks off and is worth the price of the album!!

5 out of 5 stars A POWER HOUSE.......2003-07-27

This is one of Tuna's best electric and 1 of the best Rock/Blues album ever produced. Super guitar work on all the releases. Many thanks to these guys for keeping the Rock/Blues so great.

5 out of 5 stars Awesome.......2002-07-13

This is Jorma's best effort in acid music. It is melodic and shows alot of his style. It is a must in any music collection.

5 out of 5 stars Ultra-lounge take on the Yellow Magic Orchestra.......2007-05-08

Want to be happy? Want music that reminds you of Arthur Lyman's "Quiet Village",and Yma Sumac, the Peruvian lounge diva of the '50s? Remember Ryuichi Sakamoto's Oscar-winning soundtrack for "The Last Emperor"? Then Senor Coconut's "Yellow Fever" suits all these purposes...including music to accompany cocktails.

Senor Coconut's "Yellow Fever" is the ultimate ultra-lounge take on the Yellow Magic Orchestra,just as "El Baile Aleman" was the ultra-salsa lounge version of Kraftwerk. Senor Coconut brings his masterful,kitschy,retro treatment to new wave of electronica..and succeeds again. There are even Japanese cymbals and gongs added to his Latin orchestra. He transforms "Simoon" into a laidback tropical anthem, perfect for a tiki room. "Yellow Magic","Pure Jam" and "The Madmen" sound like they come from "The Incredibles" soundtrack. There are interludes, as if it were a radio show,such as the funny "Mambo Numerique" and "Coco Agogo." "Yellow Fever" is the perfect soundtrack for reading, writing, resting, drinking cocktails....it's cheery music!If you want to feel happy, come down with the Yellow Fever!

5 out of 5 stars Another great album from El Hombre de Coco.......2007-01-27

A different feel from his earlier albums, but definitely in the same genre of latinized goodness. This album will lift you up on a bad day; lots of humor and good music here. If you're a fan, buy this immediately. If not, give it a shot, or try Fiesta Songs (which is a little more accessible). Observant Towa Tei fans will hear the disctinctive sound of his favorite digitizer.

4 out of 5 stars Yellow Magic Orchestra Gone Bananas (in a good way).......2006-06-27

It was a couple years back that electronic music producer Uwe Schmidt (aka Atom Heart) decided to take on the music of Kraftwerk and rework it through the focusing lens of cha-cha and meringue music. The resulting El Baile Aleman was much more fun than it really should have been (at least, coming from a fan of the originals), and Schmidt managed to create some more fun music in the same style on further albums (which were mainly comprised of original compositions).

Senor Coconut & His Orchestra are now back again with another batch of "electrolatino" songs, and this time the group is covering another seminal group in Yellow Magic Orchestra. To make things even more exciting, he's joined by all three YMO group members on the release (including Oscar and Grammy winning Ryuichi Sakamoto). The result is another album of insanely detailed music that is easily the most developed work done under the pseudonym yet.

At twenty one tracks in length, the album is broken up into shorter interlude pieces that more or less gather together prime guest spots into random bits of filler, while longer YMO covers actually form the real backbone of the disc. "Yellow Magic" opens the disc and features some maniacal vibraphone workouts (as most tracks do) along with some blistering horns and vocals from Jorge Gonzalez that lift the track into delightful territory. "Limbo" is even more tight, rolling together breathy vocals, punctuated rhythms, and horn bursts into a three and a half minute package.

Not afraid to stretch out a bit, "Simoon" (which also features contributions from Mouse On Mars) is a laid-back track that melts some wah-wah horns over a softly swaying island hammock backdrop. On the other side of the coin is the hyper-fast "Rydeen," which pulls together vibes, vocals, and rapid-fire horn bursts together in a way that sounds almost impossible to not be programmed. As mentioned above, there are short (usually about thirty seconds or so) interludes between every single track on the album, which feature contributions from everyone from Towa Tei to Akufen, and the pieces (which contain everything from glitch to field recordings) sometimes provide an odd and satisfying breather while at other times feel completely out-of-place. Fortunately, the songs that comprise the bulk of the release more than outweigh any unpleasant pieces, and there's always the skip button.

4 out of 5 stars Nice contrast.......2002-09-11

"Yellow Fever" is definitely a more accessible album, more directly linked to the mellow, hypnotic Nigerian highlife/juju pop style, while "Na Poi" is more of an experimental, difficult-listening album. It's interesting to hear the two different versions of the song "Na Poi," both extended Fela-style jams, but with radically different approaches... give you a pretty good sense of the kind of stylistic range these guys had. I agree that "Yellow Fever" is more fun, but hey... as long as they're gonna throw an extra album's worth of material on the same CD, I ain;t gonna complain. #8-)

5 out of 5 stars Better than Jason's Review Suggests.......2000-07-02

This CD has all the rythmic subtlety of Fela's best recordings. Anything with Tony Allen's drumming deserves four stars!

3 out of 5 stars Pretty good overall.......1999-12-21

Yellow Fever is very good and catchy, typically excellent Fela. Na Poi is one of my least favorite. It's ok, but nothing really reaches out and grabs you.

      3 out of 5 stars Disco Mann.......2003-07-24

      Both of these albums came out within two years of Herbie Mann's disassociation with Atlantic which began in 1960. While "Super Mann" is listed as being released in 1978, according to the liner notes "Yellow Fever" came out in 1972. I don't know who came up with this date but it is definitely false. I believe the correct year was 1979.

      Be that as it may, the reason Herbie Mann left Atlantic was because he was being pressured to reproduce the kind of successful formula he had with the top 20 hit "Hijack" from 1974's recording "Discoteque." It would appear that "Super Mann" and "Yellow Fever" were the result of the afore-mentioned pressure. Taken at face value they are not bad disco albums. If you really like Herbie Mann and if you really like disco, then you'll probably like this two-CD set.
