Nardini spent the late 60’s and early 70’s doing covers and learning the ropes. In 1971, while living in Boston and attending the Berklee School of Music, Nardini spent a week playing guitar for music legend Big Mama Thornton and George “Harmonica’ Smith at The Jazz Workshop.

In 1975, as bass player for rock band “Diamond Reo”, he got his first national release and toured extensively through 1978 performing on shows with Ted Nugent, Aerosmith, Canned Heat, Kansas, Rush & Kiss. It was a great education. After two more releases, 1976’s “Dirty Diamonds” on the Kama Sutra label and 1978’s “Ruff Cuts” on Mad Dog Records. Norman left the band to start “Norman Nardini & The Tigers”, his first shot as lead singer, lead guitar and chief song writer.
