Tim Gorman
Tim Gorman is an American producer, composer, arranger & keyboardist born and based in San Francisco. He has worked as a session musician from the 1980s until the present, his most notable collaborations being with Duane Eddy, Paul Kantner, The Rolling Stones and The Who.
Gorman took part in the recording of The Who's It's Hard and the subsequent tour in 1982.
In 1984 he was the keyboardist in The V.U. (sometimes called The View) Phoenix Rising album together with Kevin Chalfant (vocals), Ross Valory of Journey fame (bass guitar), Prairie Prince (drums) and Steff Burns (guitars), all of them musicians whose complete list of acts in which they were involved needed another specific page. Valory and Chalfant later joined again in The Storm which included other former Journey members plus Josh Ramos, a guest guitarist in the The V.U. album. Phoenix Rising songs are dated 1984 but the album never saw the light till it was rescued and published by Frontiers Records in 2000. It's a classic 80's AOR masterpiece being the song If I Had You Back an absolute gem.
