Editing Hot Tuna (section)

=== Hiatus and return (1978–1989) ===

During the hiatus, Jorma Kaukonen released several solo albums and became involved with 
the [[Fur Peace Ranch]], a guitar camp and retreat in southeastern Ohio that he and his 
wife Vanessa would establish in the 1990s. Jack Casady performed with various artists 
and briefly re-engaged with the Jefferson Starship lineup.

The two reconvened Hot Tuna periodically through the 1980s for reunion performances, 
and by the end of the decade had re-established the band as an active concern. 
The reunion era found them returning to both acoustic and electric formats depending 
on the setting.
