Too Hot to Handle is a Jorma Kaukonen acoustic solo album recorded live at the New Haven Symphony Hall on July 20, 1984, and at an unknown location on November 18, 1984. It was released on Relix Records. Kaukonen's wife at the time, Margareta Kaukonen, composed some of the tracks with him and is credited as "Malles Meje."
