5.0 out of 5 stars ANOTHER HEALTHY SERVING OF THE MAN, March 5, 2000

Just as From The Archives Vol 1. left off, From The Archives Vol 2. picks up. Another great and excellent quality collection of Tommy Bolin songs to feed all those hungry fans druelling for more. In between Vol 1. and Vol 2. the Tommy Bolin Archives released about 5 other Tommy CD's exculsively through the fan club so check that out. On this release we have the same pattern as on before, 5 acoustic numbers being the highlight odf this collection. Alexis, Celebration, Slow Driver, Love Home and Gypsy Moon show Tommy's nakedness with just him and a guitar. Beautiful songs by the way. ANother treat are some early demos Tommy was recording to fetch a solo deal and these songs wound up on his first solo album Teaser. The title track, Dreamer and The Grind are presented in raw and rockin' form. A unique song on here is a James Gang instrumental demo called Journey, and Tommy does a demo of another future James Gang song, called Alexis, another fine piece. This is another great collection of unreleased Bolin stuff. Long Live The Man!

5.0 out of 5 stars Tommy Bolin's basement tapes, July 14, 1998

What an outstanding job the Tommy Bolin archives has done in presenting this material to the public.The follow up to archives vol I delivers such tasty moments as an in your face reading of "teaser", an acoustic version of "alexis", a James Gang demo preformance of "journey" which later became "marching powder" and much more.This material has been on the shelf over 20 years and we know somebody is smiling up there now that its finally available.

5.0 out of 5 stars A collection of gems, June 13, 2005

This is a must have for all Tommy Bolin fans. The album has quite a few acoustic demos which are raw and realy display the lovely voice and natural guitar ability,

Some realy rocking numbers are there as well. Even a couple of his jazz rock 'Zypher' alternate takes are there.

One realy great album with all songs showing the talant of Tommy.

Not to miss this one as good as any of his best.
