Standing In The Rain acoustic demo excerpt
In early 1973 Tommy Bolin approached his friend Michael Drumm, and asked if he could co-sign on a loan for a sound on sound reel to reel deck so he could record song demos. Michael had credit - Tommy didn’t and without a moment of hesitation he said yes, and Tommy then was able to create his own mini recording studio in his home that turned into this demo and so many others that wound up being released by the Tommy Bolin Archives which Michael was the cofounder of with Johnnie Bolin in 1995. More recently he created this video with found super 8 film footage from Boulder back in that era.

Tommy Bolin’s guitar solo from Burn - Deep Purple at Budokan in Tokyo! I am sorry for all the haters of this. By Tommy’s playing in Buddakan, his arm had pretty much recovered - when I listen to this I hear a guitar solo - I hear something that does not sound like what all the comments always say about this show - people are buying a myth - hearing a story and they can’t even hear that this is ...

Tommy Bolin Archives has released dozens of songs that were a reflection of Tommy using the reel to reel sound on sound deck he had to put down ideas - flesh out arrangements - and get familiar with a song idea so when he went to the studio he would really have a clear idea to what he wanted to. Tommy, of course, had no idea that he would pass in 1976 and that demos would wind up being released...

This is exciting stuff! It is April 1971. Tommy Bolin had met avant-garde jazz flautist Jeremy Steig through Eddy Kramer during the recording of the Zephyr - Going Back to Colorado album in New York City. They struck up an immediate connection based on exploring the far corners of their musical minds. Tommy had not yet turned 20 years old. He had Jeremy come to Colorado to do a series of gigs i...

    Deep Purple management did the band no favours. After 30 concerts in the US. Instead of having a break they did a short tour of England. The band were exhausted. No wonder they fell out amongst themselves. Lord and Paice made the decision to disband. Coverdale who was very upset left the band unaware of Lord and Paice decision. Hughes was in a mess and took years to sort himself out. Sadly we lost Tommy in December 76 aged 25. A very talented musician was lost at such a young age. I like Deep Purple but prefer the line up with Coverdale on vocals. The guys in the band today are only interested in their own history.

    A great atmosphere at Wembley. Deep Purple MK4 was a good band in my opinion. Its a shame they didn't take a break and go again. They just split up after the tour.

    What I loved about music then was the band would take you on a drive down the road of escape from your place of distress or happiness......it didn't matter you were just riding along..... Rare Earth, Grand Funk,Iron Butterfly, T. Rex, ELP, Beautiful Day, Jimi, Big Brother and Janis, Grateful Dead....... I could go on forever because they were inspiring and they were good for the BRAIN. I want to add a band not many people know about but well worth checking out....MARK ALMOND... seventies Frisco band

    Deep Purple seemed to be well received in Aus and NZ. New line up promoting a new album. Indonesia was a disaster losing a roadie. The rest of the tour was hit and miss. Band became messy with overdoing the solos. Shame as MK4 could have taken the band forward. Deep Purple today is an Ian Gillian tribute band. I prefer David Coverdale's contribution to Deep Purple and this is when I became a fan of the band.

    Terribly underrated, ripped off by many "name" players even down to the way he looked. Joe Perry for one, should pay royalties to Tommy Bolin. Joe Walsh felt so bad about ripping him off he suggested him to the James Gang ( probably because he stole part of Tommy's brilliant band ENERGY) and still to this day he's million times better than ANY player today. The Ultimate....indeed
