Patsy Collins and Jim’s brother, Paddy ‘the Plank’ Callaghan, served as security. The band also hired Neil Slaven, a former Trapeze producer, as Glenn’s assistant. While Glenn was on tour, David Bowie stayed at his place.
It was the start of a chain of events that would eventually lead to the band’s disbandment four months later.
It appears that your request refers to a specific event or unique term associated with Deep Purple and potentially Tommy Bolin.
However, I couldn’t find a recent or notable news piece using the phrase *”roaring with Bolin in the black chair.”* If you’re talking about Tommy Bolin’s tenure with Deep Purple, he played a critical role in the band’s transformation when Ritchie Blackmore left in the mid-1970s. Bolin joined Deep Purple in 1975 and made substantial contributions to their album *Come Taste the Band*.
His distinctive guitar approach added a new, experimental dimension to the band’s hard rock sound. Unfortunately, his time with Deep Purple was cut short due to personal issues, and he died tragically in 1976.
Could you perhaps clarify or provide more context for your request? I’d be pleased to tweak the information any further!
