    These guys were supposed to tour this summer...this is how we're going to get to see them now that Fleetwood Mac has taken a break so Neil can work with his own band again

    Loved the Smothers Brothers show as a kid and stumbled on Jim Stafford...what a genius comedy guitar virtuoso! Enjoy!

    another oldie pulled out of the archives. This group may sound familiar to fans of Iron Butterfly as lead singer/guitarist Mike Pinera started Blues Image and then left to join Iron Butterfly.

    When listening to this track, close your eyes and then tell me this doesn't sound like Janis Joplin and Big Brother and the Holding Company. Zephyr featured a very young Tommy Bolin on guitar who later went on to James Gang after Joe Walsh left and then on to Deep Purple with David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes also joining.

    I knew Tommy Bolin's little brother when I was a teen...he went to school with my girlfriend at the time...Tommy was playing with Albert King then I think. I saw my first real Gibson guitars at his house...an SG and a Melody Maker...never forget that...I had a mail order catalog EKO Italian strat copy that actually was like a Fender Mustang more than a strat...had only 2 pickups

    Awesome story. He had a great future but unfortunately drugs took him too soon like many others.

    I once went to a Smothers Brothers concert in Portland when I was about 16.

    Tommy Bolin’s best work was on Billy Cobham’s Spectrum album in my opinion. Incredible.
