Tommy Guerrero carved a languid arc across the 1980s as the loose-legged skate rat who owned the hills of San Francisco. He made history in the Bones Brigade and is still pushing things as a company man with forever-legit Real Skateboards. Defying time is Tommy’s forte – especially in sound. His new album, No Mans Land, is a tumbleweed of trip-hop funk straight of a jazz-club taqueria.
Here are some diverse Tommy tapes from the archives.
Bones Brigade – The Search For Animal Chin
Legend Award – Transworld Skateboarding
No Mans Land – Tour Video
Real Skateboards – Non Fiction
