[@lespaul5628]

Yea, I remember people not knowing back then that Robin was not the singer. My cousin got downright irritated with me when I suggested it. We were looking at the photos on the "Robin Trower Live" album. He was like "what do you think he's doing right there" pointing at his mouth. I said "making a funny face", which is what Robin did often. I said "where's the microphone? and then pointed to a picture of Dewer singing in to a mic on the back. "Well he doesn't sing on all of them, then". I said "I only here one voice, I also here at the end of one of the songs 'Thank you, James Dewer vocals. I'm the musician here, BTW I know these things. Boy he was pissed at the whole idea and just wouldn't accept it.

for the lifelong fans with Robin Trower. the second time met him backstage was not in a building!! it was in a 1968 Winnagago Motorhome after his show. no long black limos or private jets! for All us Lifelong Fans who wanted to speak with Trower. he remains a quiet and gentle man. walking in the room to meet him just felt kinda numb. Trower made that go away. kind and gentle man.

[@tomitstube]

he also had a nice trick of making slides sound like bends, like a slide does, fantastic hands too, he cranked the amp but played each note and chord with precision, there was no clumsy strumming or banging of chords, robin played like a surgeon, the combination of these things gave him his unique sound.

He was not a Hendrix imitator. He was his own talent. Completely !

[@electrix6751]

You're 100% correct. When I hear Robin I hear Robin Trower and NOT Robin Trower trying to imitate Jimi Hendrix. Only simple minds would think that. Having said that, Robin's playing _is_ Hendrix-esque without sounding like he's trying to imitate Hendrix. Does that make sense? It does to me.

[@JohnnyNation]

But admittedly playing Strats, Marshall amps, Univibe and wah pedal only furthered the comparisons to Hendrix/ but I love Trower !!!###

[@nkv47]

I feel that Robin never really got the credit he deserved for carrying on the Hendrix sound long after Jimi had died.Robin is a great Guitarist!.

[@comiconworldccw4687]

Norm Vance Agreed ,_ I would like to add that I see them as completely different animals and I don't feel it does tribute to this great band to compare them to another band just because they use strats , marshalls and electric blues. The Trower band is the magical combination of the 3 special musicians that happens so rarely, much like Cream . Love Jimi, especially his rhythm guitar comping style . Jimi was a great and colorful unique character and an innovator though also a guitarist faking his way through the vocals and his album cuts could be inconsistent and spotty . I much prefer the song writing , lyrics singing and albums of Trower. Bridge of Sighs is an album masterpiece , much like Sgt. Pepper for the Beatles. The band should have stayed with that producer and recording studio as they really know how to work with Trowers kind of band.

[@nkv47]

Come to think about it SRV kept the Sound around too before his untimely Death..Who knows SRV might have been just as good or even better then Hendrix if he had lived.

[@shamrockrancher7673]

+Norm Vance Arguably, he was. Personally, and with all due respect to Jimi, I find SRV more palatable. I lived in Austin back in the early 80's before SRV was discovered... he was a local. My ex and I used to go see him just light it up. You could see him two nights in a row and he wouldn't play the same set and if he played the same song two nights in a row, he played it differently. SRV ruined live music for me. With one or two exceptions, every musician I've seen live since has let me down. SRV was the best I've ever seen and I've seen a lot.

[@samoneil9600]

+Shamrock Rancher right on. SRV is untouchable. he has some peers, but not many. check out the UFO album called FORCE IT...Michael schenker is a fucking shredder. jimmy page had his moments. check out Adrian belew, formally from king crimson. also Robert fripp. the list is endless, but SRV sits atop it.

I can't begin to describe all the emotions that come rushing back to me, 40 years later. It makes me sad, though, as this was such a Beautiful time span, and I miss it so. A gorgeous decade free from war, the struggles of the 60's, and the relative meaningless of the 80's and beyond. I'm so grateful to have enjoyed this time, and wish I could live it all over again. Sweet, simple and honest. Bare to the bone - where Soul was reborn and freed to take flight to skies filled with sparkling stars.... Thank you, Robin Trower, for bringing so many Souls through to raw, pure Joy and ecstasy. Your obvious utter Joy and true humble appreciation of bringing pleasure to every person in the audience through your music is unequaled. I hope to meet you someday....

AS I AM WRITING THE "COMMENT", it is May 23rd of 2015; and on this day 40 years ago, I attended a concert in Birmingham, Alabama , which featured as its headliner The Robin Trower Band, with opening act Golden Earring. Earlier that Spring, Trower had released his "For Earth Below" album; and my fondness for the radio-"hit" entitled "Shame the Devil" from that album had persuaded me to see the band in concert. I came to this posting this evening to relive that concert. ~ "Thanks" to KZbin, and "Rock on TV" !

A true Stratocaster master and master of the wah wah pedal. Nobody uses it better. He puts every fiber of his being into his playing and we are the beneficiaries. His bandmates were great too. Dewar was one of the all time great singing bass players.

[@billydefeo3501]

I was 17 years old the first time I ever saw Robin Trower one of the greatest concerts ever seen such a talented fantastic spirited guitar virtuoso when I say that it's because I have seen every musician and band that anyone could name I was 12 years old when I started going to concerts it became a part of my life I've seen everybody with a few slight exceptions and that concert just blew me away he doesn't get the credit that he deserves he's a guitar god a wizard a genius what else can I say we all take it easy

[@jesusyou909]

WHEN DID ROBIN TROWER START DOING SHOWS???

[@mczappa]

All three musicians were fantastic, but I have a special fondness for James' voice.

[@AnOldGuitarFan]

Simply awesome! First concert was Robin Trower opening for Humble Pie. Trower came out playing Bridge of Sighs with his wah wah peddle. It was quite an experience I won't forget.

[@markhunter8554]

Nobody - NOBODY has better guitar face than Robin Trower.

[@carlanderson906]

I was at that concert what a gig. There was so much marijuana smoke in the air that I was high without actually smoking any. The crowd was rowdy and the practically knocked the barricade over in the front then a lot of event security guys came up there and righted the barricade. It was sooooo loud that to me, in the front, I could barel;y make out the songs they were playing. I was thinking they sucked and went out of the main auditorium to the foyer where there were bars and was shocked that I could hear it perfectly and it sounded awesome. THAT IS LOUD!

[@hammerhead2325]

It was such a thrill to see this show. I was 16. My first concert. Pablo Cruise and Journey opened the show. I was just in awe. All that sound and Bridge of Sighs was riding the rock charts. Magic!

HH…I was there too!! What a time, never again!!

Robin Trower, the most underrated guitarist ever?

[@rorysteele4943]

damn right he is.

[@dorsharabi7594]

He is not that good , i think jimi is better

[@rorysteele4943]

Jimi was better but trower is a great guitar player.

[@rotorhead58d]

I don't think RT was underrated at all. He is was and always will be one of the best guitarists to grace our time on this planet.

[@MrLinki1212]

The thumb down was for your incompetent comment.

[@gustavonmesquita70]

Hendrix, Trower and Gallagher.. the guitar Holy Trinity !!

[@diddlytube]

+Gustavo Mesquita I don't throw around words like "best" when it comes to music, because to me whatever's "best" is what hits the spot at any particular moment. But I keep coming back, over and over, to the same three guys you mention. Certainly they were three guys who could bring it, chops-wise, but they were also three guys who consistently stuck to their styles, and played with a sort of musical honesty that gives what they did a timeless quality. I'm slightly too young to have seen Jimi, but I saw Rory 3x before he died, even getting the Rory "handshake from the stage" one night. Hoping to see RT for the 3rd time (after several missed opportunities) when he rolls into town a few months from now. I never would have imagined, when I first saw him in the 1970s, that he'd still be out there, still creating and releasing new material, after 6 decades of doing it to it.

[@ampsplus]

+Kurt Goff Yes, he is great, but do not forget, Albert Lee has had many. many years to hone his craft. Jimi had from his teenage years to 1970. A finite span, with many, many accomplishments in there. It is the same argument with Eric; he has had many, many years to hone his playing. It is foolish to compare.

[@stratman457]

+ampsplus that is it right there...when you look at what Hendrix accomplished in a short time frame compared to many, is out of this world and Jimi is still at the top of the heap. And then you look at how many musicians have lived long and wasted their time and talent.

It is the end of 2018 Robin is on tour as I write this, go see him if possible. An experience you will never forget. I have seen him 4 times this time will make 5 times when he comes to Portland in May 2019. You won't be sorry.

[@DeepLayers]

'Robin Trower Live' blew my mind. I listened to it for months endlessly. Went to sleep to it every night. I was naive when I first picked up the album. I assumed that Robin Trower was the guitar player and the singer. I would later find out that the singer was James Dewar (the bass player), easily one of the greatest rock/blues singers of all time,.... of all time. I mean no disrespect to Lawrence but the band was Trower and Dewar. Together they wrote and performed some of the greatest music ever performed.

[@charleswilson9654]

+Curt Thurston Absolutely. Jimmy Dewar was one of the greatest R'nB', rock singers you ever heard. He definitely resonated with me. Fantastic voice.

[@michaelgasiciel9317]

Just saw RT 3 shows in 3 cities 3 days in a row Ft. Wayne,Ind./K'zoo, Mich./ Royal Oak,Mich. in May. Great shows . But back in'74 when I was 17 I thought the same thing about Trower being singer/guitar player 'til I read the album notes and credits.

[@barrygoe9719]

BACK IN THE DAY WE ALL FOUND OUT THAT ROBIN WASNT THE SINGER.....THE FIRSTTIME YOU WOULD SEE EM THEN YOU WOULD KNOW

[@RedGibsonsRock]

I love how James turns his eyes toward Robin once in a while with a look that says "I'm hangin' right with you, brother. " Like at 1:17:10. Playing bass and singing that well at the same time is not as easy as he makes it look.
