SET FOR WIDE RELEASE SEPTEMBER 4TH ON 429 RECORDS

SANTA MONICA, Calif., July 23, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Rock guitar legend Tommy Bolin will be honored with a box set release of his lauded solo release "THE DEFINITIVE TEASER"--a 3 CD collection featuring a re-mastered version of his classic album along with 2 CDs of outtakes and alternates. The project was produced by Greg Hampton and Johnnie Bolin. 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. Along with the 3 CD TEASER BOX SET, 429 Records will release a 5 CD set, "THE DEFINITIVE TEASER COLLECTOR'S EDITION" which will also include the 2 CD Deluxe version of GREAT GYPSY SOUL--a collection of Bolin songs recorded by a top notch roster of players who signed on to pay tribute to Bolin. 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 "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. "THE DEFINITIVE TEASER" and COLLECTOR'S EDITION will be released by 429 Records on July 31(st).

Tommy Bolin was the quintessential guitar prodigy who focused his talents within the burgeoning rock/metal scenes of the early 70s as well as mastered a highly lauded jazz fusion technique catching the attention of rock tastemakers and guitar legend peers. It was just a matter of time before Bolin was making a name for himself playing on projects as diverse as Billy Cobham's "Spectrum" project (considered one of the great jazz fusion recordings of all time), replacing Joe Walsh in the James Gang, playing session work on seminal fusion projects by Moxy and Alphonse Mouzon, to replacing Ritchie Blackmore in Deep Purple. With the release of his second solo album "Private Eyes," what should have been a red letter moment for Bolin, opening up for Jeff Beck in Miami, sadly turned tragic as Bolin was found dead of an overdose shortly after the gig.

Says Warren Haynes: "Many of the guests added after the fact have a close personal connection to Tommy--all share in acknowledging his place in rock history. Watching (and hearing) it all come to fruition some 35 years later was a journey of its own--well worth the travel."
