Savoring each frame that is available to present here. Not much to work with....

Thank you. Tommy's spirit has had an inexplicable affect on me for the longest time. I'm from Minneapolis and played around the Twin Cities area while his brother Johnnie was there in the early/mid eighties. I had a few conversations with him then and it was just a joy to see and hear the love he had for his brother. Regardless of the demons that haunted Tommy, he has left a very real spirit and warmth with those of us who really felt and continue to feel his spirit. God Bless ~

I went to Tommy Bolins grave two weeks ago. I wanted to take home a momento from the occasion. There were guitars picks down the vaseholder hole in his headstone that many fans who visited his grave left for him. Those were sacred and couldn't be touched. I looked over to right of his grave and saw a thin cigar like the ones he smoked and took that home as a remembrance.

@twiggygil No my friend, next time leave two picks, but remove one. It's like getting to soul jam with a brother you never met! Both of your appreciation and discerning ears led you there. He should be celebrated, and what better way than to swap a pick with another dedicated soul, that you can take home and think about for years to come as you also continue the path of self discipline and dedication. Jam one out for Tommy, man!

I wish I could see him operating his echoplex ...

@twiggygil It would make my love for the man and his music complete to be able to visit his grave and leave a pick from one of my gigs, I am going to research and find the location thanx for the post and warm words about the player of a lifetime that he was, I would sell every vintage fender,Jackson, and even my E.S.P to have one of those one hundred Dean Teaser sticks from the Namm show...Hear um howl.......R.I.P. Tommy

Hands down the artist I most wish I had been around to see in action. Absolutely amazing.

@Abaris11 Tobacco is an ILLEGAL drug (not legal to POISON people, no matter how slowly you do it) which helped KILL LOTS of great musicians like Tommy.

BAN THE ILLEGAL TOBACCO DRUG, NOW AND PROSECUTE THE PUSHERS!
