Biography
Born Michael Bolotin, Feb.26,1953,
in New Haven, Conn.
A screamer on the New England
hard rock circuit for years, Bolton split for Los Angeles to concentrate
on songwriting and was churning out emotional hits for others before someone
noticed he had a pretty stirring voice himself on those demo tapes. With
long hair flowing and a strong chin, he became a middle of-the-road matinee
idol, a Fabio for former Barry Manilow fans. His over the-top style (and
penchant for re-making classic soul songs) earned him sneers from critics
and swoons from his fans. He got kudos from Ray Charles and Otis Redding's
widow for his soul re-makes, but the Isley Brothers successfully sued over
the similarities between Bolton's 1991 hit "Love is a Wonderful Thing"
and one of their 1966 songs. Bolton still resides and records in Connecticut,
where he spends a lot of time on charitable activity. Source: Music
