[@scottstreet5796]

Trower was the quitarist for Procol Harum {"A Whiter Shade of Pale", "Salty Dog." etc.) for their first four albums, then went solo in the early 70's. He's performed in a trio ever since, with various bassists and drummers over the years. "Bridge of Sighs" was, as far as I'm concerned, his best album with his best lineup -- Reg Isidore on drums, and James Dewar (pronounced "dewer" or "doer") on bass and vocals. Dewar had previously played with a Scottish band called Stone the Crows (whose lead singer, Maggie Bell, can be heard doing backup for Rod Stewart on "Every Picture Tells a Story," and should, like Dewar, be much better known). Dewar sang on all of Trower's albums from 1973 through 1983, and played on all but two, then suffered a series of debilitating strokes until jis death in May, 2002. Trower himself is still rolling at 78, and his latest album. "No More Worlds to Conquer," was released in 2022.

he's one of those guitar players that never really hit it big..But has a fanbase that will fight you over his talent.but has a catalog as deep as that groove..and one hell of a live show always..100 people or an arena full he gives it all

[@michaelwhalen7991]

I wouldn't say he never made it big... He was known by all in the early 70's. But there was SO much talent and great music at that time, he maybe just got lost in the rush. He had devoted his playing to the loss of Hendrix. And people were moving on to other types of rock. Like country rock. Allman brothers, Skynyrd, Zzz Top, or groups like YES, pink floyd , Bowie etc. He was a "Victim of the Fury" as one of his songs said.

He also has his own custom peddles which gives his unique sound. As a guitar player he does things that wouldn’t make a lot of sense or wouldn’t sound right if anyone else did it/without that unique sound/his peddles and the way he can wah so effortlessly. “Wah at will” as I say lol Most can’t pull that off.

[@mhlevy]

This is an incredible album, and another really fantastic song on this album is "Day of the Eagle." After Hendrix died, Robin Trower (and also Frank Marino of Mahogany Rush) were named by many to be Hendrix's successors. Both of them certainly followed Hendrix's style, with Trower specializing in the dreamy side of Hendrix, while Marino went toward the incredibly frantic style of Hendrix. BTW, Robin Trower was also a member of Procol Harem. For perfection of the Hammond Organ sound, check out "Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harem!

Yes, they sound similar because the used the same tools ( Stratocaster, Marshall Amp, Uni-Vibe, Wah Wah ) but they‘re different animals. Hendrix was much more creative with his sounds and effects in his studio work.

Back in the days when the bassist/drummer knew how to play in the pocket and didn't overplay.

Love me some Robin Trower, saw him back in the 77 I believe, one of the all time greats!

Finally got to see Robin Trower and his latest trio a couple years ago - Have been a fan since late 60's Procol Harum days - They opened with this song - great stuff every song

Robin Trower. " Too Rolling Stoned." Was my favorite tune in High School. Big Big thumbs up.

Jamal it was a treat to see this video. I love Robin Trower! My father and I saw him live several years ago, and at his (Trower) old age, he still brings the house down. Appreciate you brother, keep rockin’ out!

This CD was my road trip music for many years!! Can listen to these guitar centric tunes for many miles! Troyers' for Hours!

I saw Trower live about 12 years ago in a small club in San Diego. He looked like an old grandpa, but that cat could flat bring it on the guitar! OMG! He only plays the guitar he doesn't sing. Great show for sure!

[@sonarpos47]

Robin plays the guitar the bass player sings i believe his name is James Dewer!

[@joconnell8145]

Dewar...R I P James!

[@andrewmccallum9943]

Love Robin Trower. You gotta do some Johnny winter (rock me baby) or Rory Gallagher (million miles away),

My first concert! Robin Trower, Journey, Pablo Cruise 1975 Winterland Arena, San Francisco 👌

[@justineapril7922]

FINALLY!!! I've been calling for Robin Trower for about 2 years, Jamal!! This entire album is worth listening to! Robin is the guitarist, James Dewar on bass and vocals, and Bill Lordan on drums!! Just a power trio. I first saw them in 1975. Second time was in a small theater (about 400 people) in 1999. My friend and I stood up for the entire concert. We were less than 15' from Robin!! Incredible guitarist!!!💚💚💚

[@justineapril7922]

Oops. Reg Isadore on drums. Lordan played on later albums

[@oktony61]

Listen to that title track. Bridge of Sighs, It is a real place
