This is my go to tribute song to my late wife...speaks to me in a profound way and always bring the tears..beautiful song.
May she rest easy....
Amen 🙏
I believe I was 17 when I bought Quah. This song got me through a lot. Just love the way he plays. Never gets old 50 years later.
This is pure genius, passion, wisdom and talent. What a gift he is to the world - and what an enchanting piece he has created. Thank you, Jorma!
Thanks to Johnny Depp and the movie Transcendence and me watching it back in 2014 when I was 24 years old, I found this masterpiece. I’m going on 32 now and haven’t stopped listening to it since. What and amazing musician and a timeless masterpiece.💙💯
I saw that movie. It was in the very beginning of the movie. Ahhhhh! Transcendence=Genesis pretty clever !!
Have been listening to this gorgeous song for over 40 years. It still gives me shivers. Thanks, Jorma!
What album did it first appear on?
Jorma !:! Beautiful, Astonishing !:! Jorma wrote this beautiful spiritual song ... weaving magical guitar and whispering lyrics to feed my soul.
Love him, and I’m so happy to have actually met him.. 40 years ago❤
I still remember hearing "Genesis" on a local small radio station. I called repeatedly for months to hear it. Then I found "Quah". These are events that are etched into a young brain forever. Bravo!
Sends chills up and down my spine. I'm 19 years old again!
it makes me wish I was born to live those years..!
exactly... 17... a visceral memory.. summer nights in Harvard Square, coming of age..
Jorma's singing on this song is more refined now than it was when I first heard it - in the early 70's. I wasn't more than 15 feet from him , those were the days.
Dylan once wrote...a song is anything that can walk by itself...this song will always be the most beautiful ever written
probably you're right.. but there are other shades of music that can bring me without words somewhere else this song cannot take me to.. let me know if you want about
"Boards Of Canada - Seven Forty Seven"
"M83 - Noise"
"brian eno invisible" (the first result)..
clearly totally different things but everyone takes me somewhere.. and also Brian Eno composed one of the best songs of all times, "Just another day"
I love to watch old rock stars age gracefully. He was and is great.
Jorma has socks older than most of usa
I saw him in concert a few years ago and totally agree!
Such a beautiful song. One of my all time favorites!❤️
Thanks, Jorma. I'm 66 in 2023, and I've been... not following exactly, but appreciating your guidance since I was 15. I would love to come to FurPeaceRanch, but I've got these cats to feed... I've never looked away. And you have helped.
Jorma's voice , tone and notes are like no other . It touches one soul , it brings tears to the eyes .
Yeah, I easily cry listening to this song.. I like to write, I like to create melodies with my guitar, but I cannot even imagine the state of inspiration he must have had to combine both in such masterpiece..
The midrange tones of big, rosewood Martin guitars are quieter than the bass and treble ranges. Jorma uses this to perfection here. He sings right in that pocket of beautiful fingerstyle. What touch!
Amazing-I felt like crying too-so very soulful yet peaceful-there’s a super old version-that’s even better clearer-I know but haven’t found it yet
I remember when I got my first good acoustic guitar. A Martin DCX1E, which is behind me on its wall rack. I knew I had to make this the first song I learned on my new spiffy geeetar, lol So that is what I did. One problem is that while I have the tune down on the guitar note for note, easy now.(was not that easy way back then) but I can`t sing and play at the same time.If I tried to do that way back....?
So so glad I watched transcendence or I'd never have come across this beautiful song
One of my favourite Kaukonen originals since the release of the Quah album in 1974.
Quah was such a fundamental album....... this song brings the same feeling back each time its heard.......perennially beautiful.........
I still listen to Jorma or and Jack they calm me down during the pandemic
"And though I'm feeling you inside, my life is rolling with the tide..."
Beautiful Jorma ⚘
Absolutely one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written and recorded! A true masterpiece 🤩
Our lives have been enriched and blessed by you being there. Happy birthday Jorma, from Greg and Julie Moon, Los Angeles/Long Beach. Thank you.
My father had Lewy body dementia. A secondary Parkinson's dementia. He had fallen into total numbness, into the most irremediable rigidity. He then he took the guitar, sang this song. And the agility of hands and mind magically returned.
The human body is something indecipherable, mysterious and, in some ways, fascinating.
I HEARD THIS SONG ABOUT 40+ YEARS AGO AND LOVE IT TODAY MORE!
I will always love this song...and he sings it just as perfectly as he did 40 yrs ago!! GREAT!!
The time has come for us to pause
And think of living as it was
Into the future we must cross (must cross)
And I'd like to go with you
And I'd like to go with you
You say I'm harder than a wall
A marble shaft about to fall
I love you dearer than them all (them all)
So let me stay with you
So let me stay with you
And as we walked into the day
Skies of blue had turned to grey
I might have not been clear to say (to say)
I never looked away
I never looked away
And though I'm feeling you inside
My life is rolling with the tide
I'd like to see it be an open ride
Along with you
Going along with you
The time we borrowed from ourselves
Can't stay within a vaulted well
And living turns into a lender's well
So let me come with you
And let me come with you
And when we came out into view
And there I found myself with you
And breathing felt like something new
Along with you
Going along with you
He's changed the wording here. He never asks, "let me....". Instead he says, "I'd like to.
.."
It's very sweet.
Thank you for your lovely comment. @@elissaaleph
This song is beautiful and brilliant. 😮an all time favorite of mine 😢please play on brother
One of the Great Master Acoustic Guitarist going today.....Great Lyricists....What can you say about Jorma except Genius.
Jorma is an underrated guitarist. He has always been an excellent musician. Top rated guitarist with a unique sound. From a generation of individualists.
Amazing! His voice is much softer and velvety-like than in the 80ies. I Love Jorma. His music has always been a part of my life
An underrated song master...his music belongs to the ages...
i love you Jorma, Thank you for a lifetime of music. Thank you for the pleasure you have given me and so many others. the real, feeling, caring world loves you,
I do agree...poetic, noetic Jorma
Going back to about 1970, I learned more about guitar from this guy than any other. A master.
Gonna see Hot Tuna in 6 days!! Im going to be on cloud one million when jorma plays this. Im 27 years old and have dreamed about the day I get to see Airplane, and since Im sure that will never happen Hot Tuna will do just fine!!! Extremely happy I get to be a part of such a great time in music. Forever Tuna forever Airplane!!
+june21stgem so how was it?
Sorry if I am too late but he rarely does this song live. You would think it was a staple in his set...but I have never seen him play it live. Let me know how your show went. I know you saw a damn good show, Genesis or not!!!
JORMA I FOLLOWED YOU SINCE THE JEFF.AIRPLANE DAYS AND NOW AT FPR. YOU ARE TRULY A AMERICAN ICON,A GREAT MUSICIAN,Guitarist,SONGWRITER,JACK CASSIDY,JOHN H,WILL ALWAYS REPRESENT,FREEDOM,LOVE ,THE PRECIOUS EARTH AND OF COURSE MUSIC HISTORY AND TO ALL OF YOUR FAMILY,s I TRULY WISH YOU ALL THE BEST IN LIFE 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶✌️😎BOB.
You Still Got It , Jorma!!🎶🎵🎶...
I'm going to pick up this song... on my guitar...thanks again
And now, one year shy of 50 years. Unforgettable!!!
This guy just keeps getting better every year. And he was excellent 50 years ago.
Such a poignant, beautiful song! Always brings tears to my eyes.
Never gets old.. Thank you Jorma..
Takes you right along with him, thanks.
Last night I was surprised to hear Genesis on the radio (WFUV). It's a song I could hear forever with my wife at my side. My hat's off to Jorma Kaukonen.
A gentle giant of a guitar player. Beautiful song straight from the heart. One to one communication.
I HAVEN'T HEARD THIS IN 40 + YEARS!! WOW- MORE THAN I WANT TO ADMIT. THIS MAN IS BETTER THAN FINE WINE! HIS VOICE IS A PURE AND SIMPLE GIFT ! WHICH HE PUT TO GOOD USE!
Last night in Portland ME Jorma ended his show with this beautiful song. ❤❤❤❤❤
Yes, indeed, music of a timeless quality!
Pure joy, peace and sunshine. Where I'd like to be. Sweet peas. :) Smiling.
Brought tears to My eyes
One of my greatest concert experiences was sitting backstage of the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago and watching Hot Tuna doing an all acoustic set. I was about 20' for Jack and Jorma. Fast forward 37 years and I have tickets for Hot Tuna at the Bijou in Knoxville. Ninth row center, and I am thrilled.
Dude's still got it. Thank you, man.
The first concert I ever saw was Hot Tuna in 1972, and Jorma has remained one of the most important musicians for me ever since.
Right there with you...
Always so new and fresh.
Truly beautiful..
I'll always remember my dad and his friend jamming on their Gibsons, working on learning this, and just jamming in general. Both have passed over ten years ago, and I still feel the draw of the guitar.
May all the guitar masters pass along the knowledge/talent they have when they can.
Among my favorite songs. Just beautiful. No one like Jorma on this planet!
Jorma, you haven't lost a beat or a note in all these years, your voice is just as I remembered it from your days with Jefferson Airplane......each note as if it were from the original recording! Jeez........you're still so good, don't ever stop the music..........
surreal song, amazing, the softest shit combining all the most badass folk guitar and singing
Freaking me out. I cued a number of tunes on the "watch later" feature yesterday and a couple of hours ago I had listened to five of them and then stopped to watch the movie "Transcendence" which we had just bought earlier today...
...and this video, which I had cued next on the list, followed by the 1974 recording, sung and played by Jorma, is throughout the movie...
...most would call it just a random coincidence... I know better.
Here's two things that have aged well: Jorma and "Genesis"
The time has come for us to pause
And think of living as it was
Into the future we must cross (must cross)
And I'd like to go with you
And I'd like to go with you
You say I'm harder than a wall
A marble shaft about to fall
I love you dearer than them all (them all)
So let me stay with you
So let me stay with you
And as we walked into the day
Skies of blue had turned to grey
I might have not been clear to say (to say)
I never looked away
I never looked away
And though I'm feeling you inside
My life is rolling with the tide
I'd like to see it be an open ride
Along with you
Going along with you
The time we borrowed from ourselves
Can't stay within a vaulted well
And living turns into a lender's well
So let me come with you
And let me come with you
And when we came out into view
And there I found myself with you
And breathing felt like something new
Along with you
Going along with you
Thank you Jorma. You, and your music are timeless. So comforting in our time quarantine. I learned this when I first started finger picking in 1976, and still struggle with that A7 pinky bend. It’s those little details that separate the great players from the rest of us.
Jorma, il musicista dei miei sogni, divenuto realtà una sera d'estate del 1986 alla Rocca di Cesena...❤...love you forever...
This song now takes on a new dimension for me, having the good fortune to have read an advance copy of Jorma's book "Been So Long" that comes out in a few weeks 8/28/18 . And like a bonus track, I learned that it was our mutual old friend, the late great Mallory Earl , a recording engineer and idea man extraordinare, who suggested the strings on the original recording on "Quah" . Listening & Reading = Learning
makes me cry every time
What an amazing performance!
A gift from Heaven.
please play this at my funeral
Into the future we must cross...
This song nestled into my soul in '74; still lives there like an old love.
On Double Dose álbum, really super top! Thanks for share.
That is as beautiful now as it was the first time I heard it , .........More so than then !
Remember songs with emotions and people who could really play instruments? This one's a gem by Jorma.
Love the lyric + progression + what a great touch. Does life get much better than this?
I always liked Jorma's music - the stuff he has written - above and beyond the classics that fill his sets. I've been out of touch but wonder if he has ever done of a show of just his compositions. His lyrics show the depth of his genius. Genesis is so beautiful.
understanding is a virtue hard to come by
shivers......
Where is the love button?!?!!!!
Or the AWESOME button. Discovered Jorma when I was 15 and starting to learn guitar. I'm 42 now and still hold him as a personal musical god.
I was late coming to discover him, though Embryonic Journey stood out and blew me away when I was very young. What a perfect mix of voice, instrument, and writing. Awesome indeed.
I just received Jorma's book "BEEN so LONG" and in the foreword by Grace Slick she mentioned "Genesis". So here I am on UA-cam for my first listening and I'm not disappointed. Thank you
Jorma for for the music from Jefferson Airplane and the "Embryonic Journey"...now back to the book.
GOD YES! now I have something to watch and listen to learn this song.. tabs are not for me.. but this is The Thing, man, thanks for the upload!
OMG, Jorma, you are so special. Thanks so much for singing your classic.
Two things, 1) this is a masterpiece. It's everything I want in a song. Jorma is getting us, and if you get the chance see him. The right answer to the question "how many times did you see Jorma"? is every chance I could. 2) how did 21 people dislike this song enough to give it a thumbs down? Sad.
Jorma, your music inspires me on a daily basis. You truly are a master of folk music and showing that you can do it yourself in a way that defies expectations on this day and age.
THis album open up the world of ragtime guitar to me. Eternally thankful!
Beautiful!
i saw you do this in Trenton NJ in the late 70s or very early 80s. Thank you. My heart was full then and is full now with you. We love Captain. We always will. Love Wayne and Cindy.
I love it, I love this music you play Jorma, and to share that, thankn you so much >3
Loved your 4-5 hour shows in the mid 70’s in Passaic NJ. Great memories. You still sound great. Thx
When breathing felt like something new 🎸🎸🙏🙏
Beautiful guitar and singing! haven't seen Jorma in concert!
J'avais 16 ans et elle 21 et cet incroyable album Quah et je me souviens de mon premier amour...
Salut à toi Valerie Abadie... il y'a 40 ans déjà.
Ta petite jupe verte en eponge, ta peau comme du cuivre et douce comme de la soie.
Pascal
Timeless Jorma. I bought Quah when I was 15 and have loved it ever since.
One of my long time fav's...artist and song.
Thanks John for "The Old Homestead" - I love that tune! Joel from "Brush"! Jorma, terrific as always!
Amazing ! Beautiful !
always loved this song so beautiful!!!
One of my favourite songs. I play and sing it since a long time..❤
Wow. Please send my best to the Producers, stage, sound and post production editors-producers for this absolutely PERFECT musical Journey. Stunning. Genesis indeed....
Great music !
This is so beautiful
fingerpicking magic!
Master piece, there is so much love inside
Beautiful song. One of my favorites
Just saw Yorma at the Grand in Wilmington DE. He is still the great guitar master and sounding good -- 10 years later (longer beard and whiter hair).
