BUY THE CD NOW!
DEMOLITION BALLÊ was the last studio album recorded by TORME in 1993.
TORME virtually became London's legendary MARQUEE club house band during the mid
80's, packing the club out so many times that the MARQUEE eventually paid them
the compliment of paying an even higher percentage of the door take to them than
that paid to famous mega names like PHIL COLLINS and ZZ TOP.
On DEMOLITION BALLÊ singer GARY OWEN had replaced PHIL LEWIS as front man: PHIL
LEWIS had left TORME to join the LA GUNS.Ê GARY OWEN had come via SAMSON and ex
AEROSMITH guitarist JIMMY CRESPO's solo band.
In the course of his career as a highly rated guitarist Bernie TormŽ has played
with some of the b
iggest names in rock, including ex DEEP PURPLE singer IAN GILLAN's band GILLAN,
and ex BLACK SABBATH singer OZZY OSBOURNE's BLIZZARD OF OZZ.
Bernie was Ozzy's first choice to replace guitar legend Randy Rhoads in BLIZZARD
OF OZZ following Randy's tragic death.
Following his stint with OZZY, Bernie returned to the UK to release a solo
album, TURN OUT THE LIGHTS, which charted in the UK top thirty.
Bernie had originally joined GILLANÊ in 1979 at a time when Ian Gillan's career
was in the doldrums. GILLAN with TormŽ on guitar, however, quickly established
themselves as a major international rock act, touring extensively and with great
success throughout the UK, Europe, Japan and the USA, and releasing many hit
albums and singles.
Bernie has also played with ATOMIC ROOSTER, appearing on the albums HEADLINE
NEWS and LIVE IN GERMANY.
During his years as a solo artist and with GILLAN,
Bernie TormŽ has sold more than 3.5 million albums and singles worldwide.
Bernie has also worked with U.S. metal legend DEE SNIDER in his post TWISTED
SISTER line up DESPERADO, and following that writing for DEE's WIDOWMAKER and
sol projects.
This album also features two previously unreleased songs from 1992.
