C123666, Papa John Creech was not part of the original Hot Tuna. Hot Tuna had been through many incarnations by the time Creech had come along. Please check out the book "Got a Revolution" by Jeff Tamarkin. It's a must read for any fan of the Jefferson Airplane and it's many offshoots. What Fillmore are you referring to in 1988? I thought they had both closed by then? If your saw a band featuring Jorma and Jack and Paul and Grace and Papa John I would say you saw the Jefferson Airplane. This band had Johnny Barbatar(sic) on drums.
Another band that featured the violin prominently was Caravan out of England. Their albums" In the Land of Grey and Pink" and" For Girls who Go Plumb in the Night" are very good. Two band members then broke off and formed Hatfeild and North another band which featured the violin .
Gatemouth Brown was a blues guitarist who also played the fiddle. Not quite a rock guy, and his heyday was in the 1950s, but he was around the rock scene in 70s, too.
I think Roxy Music's Eddie Jobson turned up here and there for other bands, too.
