His career trajectory was a rapid ascent through the ranks of rock royalty. After stints in the early bands (with vocalist Candy Givens) and his own project Energy in the early 1970s, Bolin's profile exploded. He was recruited as a session guitarist by legendary jazz-rock drummer Billy Cobham for the landmark 1973 album Spectrum , performing on classics like "Stratus". This led to a role in the James Gang , where he helped revitalize the band on the albums Bang (1973) and Miami (1974). In 1975, he accepted the most daunting challenge in rock: replacing Ritchie Blackmore in Deep Purple . With the band's Mark IV lineup, he recorded the album Come Taste the Band and embarked on a world tour, all while battling a growing heroin addiction that had begun to plague him.
Includes demos for Tim Goodman (1973), rehearsals, and various live electric jams. -Extra Quality- Tommy Bolin 1966 1976 Fever Box Set 15 Cdsl
