In the spring of 2005, noted LA producer Greg Hampton trudged through a heavy rain shower up the steps of a single story warehouse on the outskirts of Orange County. He had gotten a tip that a gold mine may be inside. "I just found them in a warehouse. They were there by accident. A mutual friend told me about them, because we were looking for the Teaser masters. It was a pouring down rainy day, and I was absolutely soaked to the skin. But I couldn't believe it when I pulled down the boxes from the top of a shelf. Over 20 reels of tape no one had given a second thought to for years."
The tapes tell the story of a brilliant musician who has much left to say, and still demands to be heard some 30 years after his passing.
In early 1975, the American music scene reflected new dreams and attitudes of the nation's youth.But it was the recording contract signed by 23 year old guitar prodigy Tommy Bolin that really had the music industry buzzing. Everything about it invited mystery. Would the album be rock and roll, or fusion-jazz? What band would he work with? Who would sing on the record? A Who's Who of musicians lined up to take part.The late Jeff Porcaro(Toto)on drums.Phil Collins on percussion.David Sanborn on
sax. Pianist David Foster took charge of sessions that required charts. Tubes drummer Prairie Prince was eager to sign on. Tommy remembered Prairie from an all-night jam session in the Arizona desert.
When he arrived in LA fresh from the mountains of Boulder, Colorado, a life-journey began that would take Tommy from one end of the country to the other, and across the ocean to England and back before it was through.
Tommy was no stranger to a recording studio. His first session at Jimi Hendrix's Electric Lady studio with Billy Cobham was a 6 day tutorial. When the James Gang hired world-renowned producer Tom Dowd for the Bang and Miami albums, Tommy was paired with one of the the all-time masters.
"The first time I heard of him was when I was working with the James Gang.Joe Walsh had left,and that was the first time I encountered Tommy. He had an unusual sound, unusual equipment, and he he could play like a fool (laughing). Really! And I was thinking, boy this is pretty wild, because he's not the ideal fit for the James Gang.But I thought about it, and realized he's not a replacement for Joe Walsh. He's another accent. Then I started thinking maybe this is exactly what they were looking for. Something
fresher.A new sound. A new change."
While Tommy's prowess in the studio continued to amaze his supporting musicians, things were less than idyllic in the control room. In a 1976 interview, Tommy couldn't hide his disappointment:
"Originally, it was recorded terribly. It was my first attempt at a vocal album. I owe alot to Dennis MacKay, who saved the Teaser album."
Dennis MacKay had apprenticed under Beatles producer George Martin. Now he received a call from the States asking for help.
"Studio management called me one day and said, 'Dennis, there's a guitarist from America coming over. He's got a multi-track, and would you mind demonstrating your ability to engineer in the re-mix suite?' So I put the tape on, and I started writing out notes from the track sheet where it says one to 24. And I wrote notes for each track, like
bass, bass drum, toms, keyboards... And then it went from track 8 to 24 which was all guitars. 17 tracks of them. I turned around to Tommy and jokingly said, "Excuse me, you must be the guitarist, right?" Which he thought was hilarious, and he started laughing.
"I like to get everything as bright and clear and unmuddy as possible. Instead of just coming out and blowing your cookies, I like little interesting things in every tune."
Tommy Bolin
"You cannot dismiss his contributions to our current culture. Not to be sensitive to his music and not to know it is a cardinal sin."
Tom Dowd
"I was struck by what a lyrical player he was and how fluid he was. That's what really impressed me about Tommy."
David Sanborn
"With Tommy it was pure art and feeling. And that's where his influence really shines. Around 1973, Tommy Bolin took the guitar and moved it ahead another 10 years."
Jan Hammer
"Anything he could do to make the music...otherworldly. Like Hendrix would do."
Narada Michael Walden
"We were in the studio about 4 in the morning, and Tommy started doing these guitar overdubs on "Wild Dogs". We were all completely floored by his sound and technique."
Prairie Prince
"There's a type of understatement in the way he sang. He was hitting you with these little, very simple things. And then coming back and playing this murderous stuff on top of it."
David Brown
"Of course I idolized him. He'd sit down and play guitar for me and my friends, and it would be like, stump the band. We'd tell him a song, and he'd play it for us. We'd be totally amazed. He got a big kick out of that."
Johnnie Bolin
"It is just beyond belief what this guy was capable of. When you hear this stuff the record companies didn't allow to be heard, there is no restraint. He had so much depth in his vision, I don't think they could accept it."
Greg Hampton
