Tommy Bolin was truly a worldwide gift to rock music and guitar enthusiasts everywhere. There will never be another Tommy Bolin, a guitar genius who continues to enthrall generations of aspiring musicians and music lovers with the many fine recordings and concert performances he had made during his short time on Earth.
Tommy developed all types of rock, jazz, blues, folk, and progressive sounds from his guitar and in his writing with his all of his solo works as well as his hard driven artistry with his membership in bands like Deep Purple, James Gang, Zephyr and Energy.
As Tommy Bolin was really building himself and his new band The Tommy Bolin Band into new and exciting territory, Bolin was able to capture a lot of his live and studio workings into the rare collective known as The Tommy Bolin Archives, and this leads us to the long anticipated first time official deluxe remastered compact disc of his amazing 1976 Boston concert “Northern Lights.”
Remastered impeccably by Joe Reagoso (Jeff Beck, Yes, Deep Purple), The Tommy Bolin Band’s “Northern Lights” will truly become one of the most important and historical guitar rock reissues in quite some time.
Noted for his stellar guitar work, pretty much introducing new ways of using technique, distortion and effects to a whole new generation of guitar players, “Northern Lights” is truly a primer for a ton of rock and blues artists.
Check out his dynamic prowess on hits “Teaser” “Post Toastee” and the hard rockin’ “You Told Me That You Loved Me.”
Never forgetting progressive roots, Tommy and the band exell on the Bolin classic “Wild Dogs" as well as his rock and reggae classic “People People”, showing a glimpse of what this superstar was capable of and the promise that he truly had before his untimely death in 1976.
Friday Music is no stranger to the music of the legendary Tommy Bolin, with his arsenal of fine recordings already on our label.
