          Gary James' Interview With Johnnie Bolin Of
          Black Oak Arkansas




          Johnnie Bolin traveled the world with Black Oak Arkansas for over thirty years as their drummer.

          And of course his brother was Tommy Bolin, who played guitar for both The James Gang and Deep Purple until his untimely death at the age of 25 in 1976. We spoke with Johnnie Bolin about his career with Black Oak Arkansas, his brother Tommy, and the business of Rock.



          Q - Johnnie, I may be one of the few writers who can tell you I saw your brother in concert with The James Gang at the Onondaga County War Memorial in Syracuse, N.Y. in February, 1974.

          A - Wow!

          Johnnie Bolin was a younger surviving brother of early '70s rising star Tommy Bolin.



          A - It's kind of like Tommy (Bolin). If you're interested in the band, you kind of follow 'em. This is me too. This is anybody in the music industry, if you're not really interested in 'em, and I really wasn't, (laughs) s
