Hello, thanks for your interest in Symphonic Slam - Timo Laine all these years later. The club you are thinking of was the Beverly Hills Motor Hotel , The Hook and Ladder Club. Slam played there April 14, 15 & 16, 1977. We had two popular bands as our opening acts. Thursday & Friday was Brutus and Saturday night was John Lovsin & His Invisible Band. It is always nice to hear from someone who remembers the band from back then. Hope you enjoyed the album after seeing the band live. I always thought the band was much better live than on record (although the record is excellent), because it was impossible to record the power and dynamics of Symphonic Slam. Thanks for sharing your memory.

Hi Dominic, thanks for your interest in buying Symphonic Slam records. The first 2 albums were re-released by Musea Records in France on CD, but I don't think they are available anymore. The others were only released by Timo's label Monotrim Music. They use to be available by mail order but Timo has shut down Monotrim. The first 2 albums/CD's (I know you have the first one) are usually available used from EBay (.com or .ca) or Discogs (.com). Sometimes they are available by independent online record stores. It is pretty much impossible to find anything but the first 2 LP's or CD's. Sorry, I wish I could be more helpful. But you can always listen to all of them, including music that was never released, here on this website.

Hi Rob, so glad you liked the website. For all the people I've talked to about SS you are the first to mention Timo on JMC's album. That's pretty kool. The purpose of this website is to keep alive Timo's music and correct all the misinformation on the www about SLAM/Timo. Thanks so much for your kind compliments. I hope you enjoy listening to the other albums.

Thanks Pete for the incredible compliments. They are especially appreciated knowing you were there for the concert at Massey. I'm thrilled you liked the video. I only wish we were able to have filmed all or even part of the concert. Too bad cell phones weren't invented 20 years earlier!

Note from SS Admin:  During the rebuild of this website I have deleted the '45th Anniversary Presentation' Pete refers to. Funny, but the day I did this just happens to be the 46th Anniversary of the Massey Hall concert

Thanks so much Tim for your comments. I'm glad you found the website and were able to discover more of Timo's music. Glad to see you've been a fan for so many years!
