Couldn't really get on with Bolin's solo stuff but when he was in James Gang he was magnificent! Check it out:
When Living Colour released Vivid I must have worn the vinyl to a membrane. One of the best debuts ever I reckon!

Not that familiar with Tommy Shaw's solo stuff but here's some of him doing his day job
