KN> Some of Bolin's stuff was really good, IMO. My faves are
KN> his playing on Billy Cobham's _Spectrum_ album and the
KN> playing he did on Alphonse Mouzon's solo album. They were
KN> both famous fusion drummers and it was a suprise when
KN> they chose Bolin rather than a jazz or fusion player.
KN> Bolin carries it off well in both cases. Like Paul Kossof
KN> from Free he had an unerring instinct for tastefulness
KN> and played the instrument lyrically, infusing his
KN> phrasings with something very much like vocal inflection.
I'll have to find those titles on CD. I'm really a Deep Purple fan but when
Ritchie left DP and they brought in Bolin I was totally amazed! Have you had
chance to check out Bolin's solo stuff?
