UNMISTAKABLE ROBIN TROWER guitar tone and somewhat sad, lamenting tunes with sexy, bluesy interludes . . . really enjoyed this . . . my only wish? James as vocalist . . . ❤
Yes,I too listen to these cuts afterwork and reflect on my many missteps and losses.but his sounds groove me forward and seem to convey that all is fine and better fruit is ahead.☮️
@@eddiebazan6411 Eddie! Thank you for your wise response! I have had far too much bitter fruit as of late, so some sweetness forthcoming would satisfy my palate❣️🍓 Thank you for your kind words. ❤️
I remember back in the seventies when he was dismissed in the music media as just another Hendrix impersonator, but to me he always had his own distinctive style. I still play Bridge of Sighs now and again. I think he was a member of Procul Harem in his early career, not sure about that though.
Yes, Robin was a member of Procol Harum - I heard an old interview when he was asked why he would want to leave such a successful group, 'they were a keyboard heavy band, wasn't much room for me to play the stuff I was increasingly writing'. Mind you, what we got when he went solo I honestly don't think anyone would have expected. Was a fan of Procol and have been from the late 60's till now: the man now 79 played an excellent concert Tuesday this week 28/05/24 in Islington, London, he played 5 tracks from this my pal Alan tells me as this is one of the albums I don't have. About to put this right!!
I remember the comparisons to Hendrix but Robin has always done his own thing. No offense to Hendrix fans, but Robin Trower is my favorite rock guitarist.
@@TheRootsMan It's all a matter of personal taste I suppose and there were many good guitarists in that era. Page, Clapton, Beck, Hendrix, to name a few. Robin Trower was and is as good as any of them but somehow remains comparatively unknown, not commercial enough I suppose. My current favourite is Mike Slamer.
We always talk about the big three...Page,Hendrix and Clapton but others like Robin grower ,Alvin Lee, Dave Gilmour and others need to be mentioned also..😇

He played 5 of these tunes on Tuesday this week, on 29/05/24, in an excellent concert he did in Islington, London. For me of the whole show, which of course included some of his classics, I thought 'Wither on the Vine' was quite stunning
@hannibalspice, not the same, I know, but this is the next best thing I would suggest. ua-cam.com/video/Ybr0GIszgRg/v-deo.html A PS to my comment above/below: I thought the final encore 'Birdsong' was another stunning track: how Robin gets quite so much emotion into 5 simple well spaced notes is [for me] quite mesmerising. LOVE the man's music
The recording engineering/ production doesn't fo this justice. Maybe what Robin wanted. The jammin in a room sound. But the spaces he leaves, his style deserves better. Great songs but this sounds like a demo.
@@Maxid1 it comes down to personal preference. I like the red hot guitar and solos vis a vie Bridge of Sighs. Not the slow balad type in his later stuff. The same with Joe Satriani, his album the extremist is great, his later stuff is not worth the money.
@@swi9945 It is preference. Not a Satriani fan, but I like Robin Trowers entire catalog. That said, I go back to Bridge of Sighs far more than any of his other work. It's been part of me ever since my first listen. If there was one album, or even just one song I could listen to for the rest of my life, it would be Bridge of Sighs.
Listening to Robin Trower´s "unique" present guitar playing is provoking a non-stop listening habit !
Hey man,at this era in my life(almost 60),these jams are perfect for a lonesome, bewildered,rock and roll lovin ,carpenter type from Texas.☮️💪🏼🇺🇸
The real guitar hero! Robin has stayed true to his musical vision from the very start of his career.
"All the greatest ones are dead"? Nope. Not only not dead, Robin Trower is still in it as he ever was.
Robin and I share a birthday. Couldn’t think of a better person to share it with.
Happy happy b-day you guys!
@@johndiantonio1850I share a birthday with both of you. March 9, 1958 for me.
I share a bday with Donovan and Bono, 5/10

Best guitarist for my money still astonishing and with out the late great Jimmy Dewar may he rest in peace

Great vocals on this album but too much slow material!

Nothing compares with Bridge of Sighs. This album needs more blazing guitar solos!!!!!!!
We age with grace and so does our guitar solos......
Bridge of Sighs is truly a seminal event. I'd even go as far as to say a pillar of existence, but you need to expand your horizon. Mr Trower has.
