Tommy's amazing solo project under the name Radioactive has earned him a huge reputation around the world and the list of guests on the 3 albums he's produced is hard to match for any artist in the world with names like Jeff Porcaro, Mike Porcaro, Steve Porcaro, David Paich, Steve Lukather, David Hungate, Bobby Kimball, Fergie Frederiksen, Joseph Williams, David Foster, Greg Phillinganes, Dean Parks, Michael Thomspon, Yngwie Malmsteen, Tony Franklin, Jason Scheff, Fee Waybill, Michael Landau, Neal Schon, Andreas Carlsson, Alex Ligertwood, Bruce Gaitsch, Janey Clewer, Randy Goodrum, Vince DiCola, Neil Stubenhaus, Abe Laboriel, David Diggs, Vinnie Colaiuta, Tom Keane, Steve George, Dave Boruff, Tom Saviano, Steve Overland, Robin Beck, James Christian, Gary Barden, Philip Bardowell, Kelly Keagy and many many more!!!.....
Here you will find all the info you need about the 3 great albums, "Ceremony Of innocence", "Yeah" and "Taken".



CEREMONY OF INNOCENCE
One of the most unique albums never released!!!
Recorded with Jeff, Mike, Steve Porcaro and David Paich in Los Angeles back in 1991 this was originally meant to be a solo album for Tommy.

Due to differences with his label back then, Tommy bought the tapes back and over the last nine years the album has changed from being a solo thing to a duo group to what it is now...a one time only life project for Tommy.


It is also most likely the last recording to feature the core of Toto members before Jeff's sad passing in 1992, it was recorded right after Toto's "Kingdom Of Desire".
The style on Radioactive is like a mix of Toto's ISOLATION, Giant and Fee Waybill's READ MY LIPS! and among the song writers you'll find Richard Marx, Bruce Gaitsch, Bobby Kimball and Fee Waybill.

The album features more true super stars from the westcoast/AOR scene than any other album in many years and has already been labeled a modern classic.

YEAH
How do you follow up an album that over 10 years became a modern legend?
The idea was always to only make one album and move on but since the first album sold so well and created such a buzz around the world it would only be stupid to start something new under another name so Tommy decided to keep making his albums under the Radioactive name.
The first one was mostly written when Tommy was 20-23 years old so he felt very inspiered to show a new and more advanced side of him plus some of the few negative remarks about the first album was that people wanted a few more heavy rockers.
This album delivers in every way from song writing to performances to production and it was voted as one of the top 5 best rock albums of the year in most magazines and websites.
The cover was painted by great German artist Rainer Kalwitz.
The line up is again really strong with names like Fergie Frederiksen, Steve Overland, Bruce Gaitsch and Tony Franklin and Tommy still thinks this album has some of his very best playing ever!!!

TAKEN
Having done the second album it now felt very relaxed and inspiereing for Tommy to make more Radioactive albums so the 3rd one called "Taken" was the most creative of them all and absolutely the one that defines Tommy as one of the worlds best writers, producers and musicians in this style.
The line up is truly amazing with top names like Jeff Porcaro (RIP), Steve Porcaro, Steve Lukather, Neal Schon, Yngwie Malmsteen, Bobby Kimball, Fergie Frederiksen, Gary Barden, Robin Beck, James Christian, Vinnie Colaiuta, Kelly Keagy, John "jr" Robinson, Abe Laboriel, Michael landau, Michael Thompson, Dean Parks, Greg Phillinganes, David Diggs, Tom Saviano, Tom Keane, Andreas Carlsson and many more....
The whole booklet is done by the great Andre Beckston and follows the mood perfectly of this very adult and well produced masterpiece.
The album is also released as a limited Gold CD + DVD edition and as always in Japan with a bonus track.
