VIVA MIAMI
The 2nd James Gang album with the legendary and deceased Tommy Bolin on guitar. It's not as strong as Bang but it has it's moments. Songs like Do It, Crusin' Down The Highway, Spanish Lover, Red Skies and the little ditty Miami Two Step are among the best this has to offer. The reason it's not as strong and compelling as Bang is because Tommy was distancing himself from the rest of the band. Disinterested and wanting to go solo he soon departed after this recording but still managed to deliver some awesome songs. Ron Kenner's voice is great and Tommy did collaborate with Roy on writing a few songs but at least half of the songs were written with Tommy Bolin and Jeff Cook, the singer of Tommy's former band Energy. A great "lost" 70's album.
Strong James Gang effort featuring great Bolin Guitar Work
This album, the followup to the acclaimed "James Gang Bang", is a strong and somewhat overlooked album. The record features Tommy Bolin on Guitars, and Roy Kenner on Vocals. Bolin plays a variety of styles, from his trademark, searing slide guitar on "Wildfire" to some nice acoustic work (and his lead vocal) on "Spanish Lover". I particularly like "Summer Breezes"...great song and Bolin plays some great slide work, particularly on the beautiful, melodic ending. If you like any of the James Gang's work, or are a Tommy Bolin fan, you've got to add this to your collection!
I'm not a James Gang fan, per se...
...and only recently discovered Tommy Bolin; much to my loss! This album and "Bang" are two incredible gems of music that I've stumbled on thanks to the critiques on Amazon's Reviews. 70's style rock music with great songs, played by great musicians, seemingly having a great time! If you're a fan of the genre, looking for something you might be missing from your collection than "Miami" is it. Enjoy....
