Debuutsoloalbum, uit 1973, van toenmalige drummer van Mahavishnu Orchestra, mmv. Mahavishnu-collega Jan Hammer (kb) en vloeiend gitaarwerk van Tommy Bolin (later in Deep Purple). Energieke jazzrock, iets rockier dan de moederband.
"After performing in a variety of bands since the late '60s, Bolin released his first solo album in 1975. Teaser is an impressive display of the guitarist's prowess and range, and is a natural progression from the previous Bolin-dominated James Gang albums "Bang" and "Miami", and his work with drummer Billy Cobham. It features heavy doses of jazz-rock fusion (furthered by guests Jan Hammer, Dave Sanborn, and Michael Walden) in the instrumentals "Homeward Strut" and "Marching Powder," and straight-ahead rock in a.o. like "The Grind." Bolin was always equally adept at subtleties, and the ballad "Dreamer" and the exotic "Savannah Woman" (with percussion from Phil Collins) represent this stylistic range here. Overshadowed historically by his guitar dynamics, Bolin's understated yet strong vocals are another selling point. This is Bolin's signature work." (Rob Caldwell, Allmusic) Deze 2011-editie bevat de complete takes van de twee slotnummers. Die duurden op de LP zo'n 4 minuten, nu dik 11 resp. bijna 14 minuten!
