The Grind (Tommy Bolin)
Tommy's terrific, irresistibly catchy, opening track from his memorable 1975 solo album Teaser, composed in collaboration with Jeff Cook, Stanley Sheldon and John Tesar, and performed with a little help from his friends, including Sheldon on bass, David Foster on piano, and the late, great Toto legend Jeff Porcaro on drums! "I walked all day tryin' to find me work, I must have knocked on one hundred doors, would have swallowed my pride for some money, and be satisfied sweepin' the floors, Mister Broken Glass, Mister Silver and Gold, Mister Bustin' My Ass, Mister All You Can Hold! I spent last night asleep on a park bench, 'till a cop came and moved me along, told him I wasn't botherin' nobody, yes, he told me, I was dead wrong, Mister Broken Glass, Mister Silver and Gold, Mister Bustin' My Ass, Mister All You Can Hold, everywhere, I get the same kind of answer, "Not now" or "Maybe then", well me time is runnin' out on me people, yes, me people, if you're down and without a good friend."!! A daily grind, indeed!!
