SANTA MONICA, Calif. , May 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- In the annals of rock history, Tommy Bolin occupied a brief, but shining stint as a brilliant guitarist who wowed those in the know with his mastery of many genres—rock, fusion, funk, reggae and heavy metal among others. Along with a much lauded solo career that, pushed the boundaries of rock/jazz fusion, Bolin played with The James Gang and Deep Purple which set him up for major solo guitar stardom which was cut short by his untimely death in 1976. Not to be overlooked, there's been much written about the guitar wunderkind and now a top notch roster of players have signed on to pay tribute to Bolin on GREAT GYPSY SOUL. Produced by Greg Hampton and Warren Haynes , it's a remarkable project that brings together major players who actually perform alongside Tommy Bolin 's playing and vocals from the recording outtakes to his solo debut album "Teaser." Peter Frampton , Warren Haynes (a key supporter of the project), Nels Cline , Steve Lukather , Steve Morse , Brad Whitford , Joe Bonamassa , John Scofield , Derek Trucks , Glenn Hughes and Myles Kennedy all contribute to this amazing project. GREAT GYPSY SOUL was released on 429 Records on March 27 in a single CD format and digitally. The deluxe version was available as an Amazon exclusive and hit #1 on their rock chart. The deluxe double CD with bonus tracks will now be available physically and digitally everywhere on May 29th . Read More
