Just came acroos this, Before he made it big, Davie used to play with his band every Sunday in an Hotel in Paisley Scotland. I have heard sing often, I have actually played one number with him. He doesn't know me at all but my friends in the audience knew i played the organ and they started shouting for the band to have me on the stage. They called me up, they chose the number, it was Green Onions. I can tell my friends that I have been on stage with Davie Pattison, even though it was just for five minutes.

Absolutely great perfomance, Miss Ronnie in more ways than you can imagine.

That was an incredible night, Davey's voice was out-of-this-world. I was channeling a little Y&T "I believe in you" at the end of my solo ;-)

[@johnl4206]

And so they should be, greetings from this Italian-Englishman Londoner who has been a fan of Robin Trower for 50 years and counting

👏🙏 Fantastic.. Bravo!!! Incredible version of a incredible song!! Nice to hear a different version of the song. Davey's voice is as beautiful and strong always!! Thx for sharing!!

Even at a head banging 16, this was my fav song off G1, although the whole album soars. God Jesus, Davey is AMAZING. 40 YEARS LATER !!! I heard him sing Wish I Was in 1979. He is spot on, such perfect control and smooth vocals. I love GAMMA'S take on Mickey Newberry's song, I love Ronnie's guitar work, but I REALLY DIG the Bluesier take in this live version. Especially Tommy your slower ( aside from the runs ) more bluesy take. Can't believe I newer saw this b4. I now have another favorite version of this killer song. Thanks !!!

Fantastic solo intro of "Willow Tree". Davey has a unique voice. Looks like he uses different band members for different venues? Gamma has always been a great band. Saw them once.

Anything is possible in a country where women are rougher than men and men have no manners
