Robin Trower Shame

Shame by Robin Trower from the Guitar Speak 2 LP. A rare track unknown to the average Trower fan but well worth listening to! This video is a mix of high definition images that blend perfectly with the dreamy mystical sounds that only Robin Trower can deliver. This is just a taste of of the many masterpieces that Robin Trower has created.

[@bluffcreek9768]

Keep coming back to this....rare track, used to have the casstte lol..even Spotify doesn't have it....Trower along with Travers tragically underrated and overlooked....and both still putting out greatness...so thanks....🤘

[@aintmanyofusleft]

two of the greatest, you were in the know.....like me

[@tipple58]

Tasteful, atmospheric, face-melting guitar. Beautiful.

[@eddiebazan6411]

“Atmospheric “..that’s a great term for what I seek in music these days.hood sounds to take me away from the b.s. for a while.trower does it with his chops and cool funk and Marshall amps.peace and long life to you all.

[@eddiebazan6411]

* oops I meant good sounds not hood sounds. Obviously.

[@torellidude]

As I've said before the greatest guitarist alive. PERIOD

[@saliacobucci268]

I'm with u there...

[@mesch368]

9 years ago your post, and oh so still true! RT, A unique and truly mezmerizing sound. It is his, and no one else..you recognize it right away…and he never fails to give us his mind, total emotion and body..He is still proving it…Today….💜.

[@mikemascow8316]

Great video put to this tune... If you never heard Robin Trower, you've never heard the guitar being bent. This guy has so much talent and soul. He makes the guitar sing. Anyone who calls themself a guitar player HAS to have Trower on their playlist. Listen to the soulful sounds come forth from his Fender. It is mind-blowing. I have listened to his music for 37 years. It is timeless. Kudos Robin...and those who are fans.

[@Scanzaa]

what makes Robin so very special is comments from people in the know. My five year old son said one day when Robin was on that "NO-ONE MAKES THE GUITAR CRY LIKE TROWER" (out of the mouths of babes) and then the amazing Robert Fripp who said that what makes Robin so great is that 'every note matters'. Just two of many in the know.

[@ed345]

He is simply the best.

[@stratdave1]

can't get enough of Robin Trower. He sets the mood. The greatest. Enjoy Life! Keep Jammin!

[@yurigabrilovich2190]

Reaches heaven and beyond

[@Dixiedude66]

This is a fantastic track, my first time hearing this one. Robin's guitar prowess can't be compared with any other guitarist, alive or dead. If Jesus played guitar I would imagine he would sound like Robin.

ROBIN THE GREATEST TROWER ❤ MISS YOU JIMMY 😢

[@jerrycross4766]

Music you can feel as well as hear, sweeeeeet

[@jokkergar]

I was in the mood for this type of jam, this one goes so hard.

[@riverman1949]

Brilliant track. Thanks for posting. Trower is "The Man".

[@teresitapatriciagarzaespin8303]

I agree with you he is amazing!

[@Serenaluv17]

So beautiful I can hardly stand it!!!!

[@ChristopherGreen-gw5nh]

Mystical as always

[@markkendrick7547]

I've seen Robin Trower live 3 times....The first time was in 1976 with Jethro Tull, Rory Gallagher, and Starcastle at the LA Colosseum.....The 2 other times I saw him was at The Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana in the early 2000's.....The man is an amazing Legend......

[@dianebenson665]

Thanks again, Robin , ñ for Strato ...excellance.

[@jimjacobson8758]

Listened to robin since the 70s! He gets better all the time. Definitely on all my mix tapes.. Sorry, meant my you tube mixes! Mind blowing music!

[@eddiebazan6411]

I was blessed and fortunate enough to see him jam at the longhorn ballroom (no less)in Dallas Texas many moons ago.the year escapes me.of course.🙃

[@Dominic591000]

Robin is Bad Ass!

[@judyprince2784]

I want everything Robin ever did. Too bad I got a broken back and can't go to the mailbox. He makes my pain go bye bye.😊💋💔

[@glennvanderbusse4137]

I am sure you will find his best work available on the net.

[@trevorgwelch7412]

I broke my back at the mail box in winter , fine now .

[@dianebenson665]

This song, as are all of Robins instrumentals, is light years ahead of their respective times. Despite having a falling out with him, I can only pray him my finest as the Gem god made him & gifted him as unto us all to enjoy and his music to cherish. Remember the statement Dave Mason said to me regarding a prevailing comparo twixt Robin & Stevie Ray ( Robin is closest to Hendryx, style wise, Not as a copier of Hendryx but rather as "A conceptual futurist". Lets remember, Trower is Stll around. Lets honor him for what he is.....The Stratomeister!!!

[@dianebenson665]

+FURDOG1961 Missed your question until just now. I know, love &respect Frank as" my brother from Canada.". Frank, Robin, Stevie Ray & A late, super cool player, the Great Ronnie Montrose. Theirs are the faces along with the stylemaster, james Marshall Hendryx be the faces on Mt. Rockmore. As go Frank his path is more purer Hendryxesque. Robin is more akin to Ronnies style of play. Melodic, emotional &conceptual. Thanks for asking. Brian.

wow! i need more music like this in my life

[@dennishinklr9906]

Been a fan since procol harum days he never did a bad song but didnt get the fame he deserves

[@bdavis7981]

Then again, maybe that's for the best. He hasn't been plastered everywhere, he hasn't been burned out from the pressure, and he's a purist having fun doing what he wants to do. Lucky for us.

[@kurtstolpa616]

I'm glad I stumbled across this. Thanks for putting out there.

[@BLP-BrianLucasProject]

I'm a life long Trower fan and thought I had all of his material until I came across your video. I was lucky enough to find a Guitar Speak II CD Amazon. Thanks for posting this video!

[@greenmo6156]

You're right. Great song. I never heard this song before!

[@Trower22]

C'est tellement Robin Trower sur ce morceau il y a Night, Caravan To Midnight le son emblématique! Excellent titre qui figure sur la compilation Guitar Speak 2

[@shelliewerner5624]

very nicely put together...great jazz type blues from Robin TROWER....love it....

[@walterbridgewater6574]

Just good music to free your mind.Visuals are great too

[@frodehylland9366]

This guy is a wizard. I love the clean sounds that he makes in the background, that comes and goes in the beginning, like they are waves. I rediscovered this song recently from an old MP3 player i have not used in ages, and forgot about this, so glad to hear it again and so glad for this post. pls more tunes like this.

By the way, no disrespect to Jesus but Robin has a talent and style that is just so incredible that mere words cannot do it justice. I can only believe that it is God given. Just hope nobody was offended. If anyone was, pray and you'll get over it. Peace :)

This one appeared only on the guitar speak vol. II album. The guitar speak albums were guitar instrumentals by various artists.

LOVE THIS INSTRUMENTAL .. BUT THEN I HAVE YET TO FIND ANYTHING BY RT THAT I DIDN'T LIKE ..!!!! I AM 53 AND BEEN ROCKIN RT SINCE1977 .. ROCK ON RT ... ALWAYS!!

[@gregc9596]

slow it down with soul !

[@geraldmoreno9593]

If I knew how to play guitar, this is what I would sound like.

[@geraldmoreno9593]

I do hope. Between the styles of Robin Trower, Frank Marino, Joe Satriani, and Alex Lifeson. That is what I wish I would sound like

[@patrickmcmeen379]

Yep, you can learn to play the guitar relatively quickly but you can spend your whole life searching for the right tone.

[@Stevek552]

Gerald Moreno .. You have the love right there buddy :-)

The love perhaps, not the talent.

[@guitarwired]

PRE CBS FENDER Hey Thanks for posting this song. This has been my favourite Trower song since early 1990's. I like this song "Shame" because the tune kind of makes me shameful and introspective and make me really think about life. Robin is a brilliant player

[@meritman1]

Email me at [e-mail] if you want a copy of this song in MP3 format. Or any Trower song for that matter..I have everything he ever recorded.

[@forearthbelow]

@0marigolds My favourite fellas are ladies, Jo!! I thought stellar was the stars, cosmos a bit bigger maybe? ;-) It's kind-of where I think of RT in the musical fermament. I'm in the UK and getting to see RT twice in Sept: he's touring stateside next year, so hopefully some place near you. Have seen him about 7 times in the last few years - he's getting better every time. A true guitar god, imho. See you also like Santana: lost count after 36 concerts... Kindest regards, Tony

This sounds good, but very modern. My favorite Trower instrumental song is Islands (1983)
