Imagine a world where Robin Trower, Led Zeppelin, Pat Travers, UFO, The Who, Sabbath, Rush and so many other greats were blasting over the radio airwaves. I lived in that world and it was fricken awesome.
I know exactly what you mean👊
I fully agree! It was the best...
YES.....Yep, it was called, my entire Teenage existence. Although UFO sadly got zero ariplay in Detroit. You left our YES, ELP, Kansas, ELO, Super Tramp, Queen and Mohgany Rush..but you were close! haa...
Oh man they HAVE to do Rock Bottom live from Strangers in the night
@@Jaggedknife11 Ehh, live version is overrated and too long, studio version of R-Bottom WAY better....I say "THIS KIDS" or Shoot Shoot", Studio versions from Force It.
Say whatever you want but my generation owns the best music.
RIP James Dewar. Fantastic voice. Talented bassist. This is a great album. One of the best. Play the whole thing.
Front to back, one of my favorite albums from the 70s
His voice is similar to Paul Rodgers.
You know I hadn't thought about it but you're right!@ZEPnALE
I wore that fucking album OUT!
Right! Finally found the cd a few years ago.
Preach!
You guys should of grown up in the 70’s you would have loved everything about it! Good reaction 🎉 come on 30,000!
I agree, they would fit right in!
Takers get the Honey, while the givers sing the blues. A life lesson in that one.
So cooI…I quote that line often. Great to hear how someone else appreciates that simplicity and truth.
"Little bit of Sympathy" is the one that get's me. The whole album is superb..
Agreed. Day of the Eagle is another solid song I come back to hear. But I agree with your choice too.
Yep, the whole album is worth a listen or three.
I agree. That one is my favorite. The last 2 minutes are just amazing, but the whole band just smokes from beginning to end.
Try "Bridge of Sighs" - Brilliant as well....
That whole album is badass 👍🤘
Mando Mendez is a badass name
@@janishaldeman3339 hhhmmm🤔🤔,u ever thought about moving to Texas???😄😄😄JK ok, but thanks for saying that,my real name is Romando but everybody calls me Mando for short
James Dewar on vocals, Robin Trower on guitar.
I just love Robin Trower ❤ Thanks guys
One of the greatest albums ever. Every track a masterpiece 🙌
Trower was billed as the UK’s answer to Jimi. A fine musician!!! But James Dewar….wow….❤️😎
When the great soulful voices of rock 'n' roll are all tallied, James Dewar had better have a place of honor. One of my favorites.
"Little bit of Sympathy" would be another GREAT one!
Robin Trower is my absolute favourite guitarist . Mid 1970's was his best years . James Dewar is the vocalist and bass player ( Born in Scotland ) Trower born in England .
@trevorgwelch7412 - Scottish, Ah, I didn't know but that makes perfect since. And, at the time I didn't know that it was not Robin Trower singing. 👍
*Gonna Be More Suspicious* is my favorite Robin Trower song...it's Wah-Wah Wonderful!
This has to be one of the best blues rock albums. Long time RT fan.
Imagine cruising in your ride with some good bud, listening to all this good music, what a time to be young!
James Dewar was of Scottish and African heritage.. He has soul in his voice and excellent bass Player. How Robin found him over there I dont know, but he was perfect for Robins guitar style.. Rock/blues genre.
As soon as I heard his voice my head turned to Dewar. Trower is excellent, of course, but Dewar was it for me….☮️❤️
Scotch drinker? 😅
Lady Love is my go to on this lp. Favorite Dewar vocal is on Daydream
WOW interesting! I do know that he was in "Stone the Crows" before hooking up with Trower.
@@mr.snicker-doodles7081 Jimmy McCulloch also of Scottish descent who played with Wings also was in Stone The Crows.
I saw Robin Trower a couple times I believe both during the eighties. One song was so good experiencing live that took me to another place was “Daydream”or some called it Spellbound. I call it magic.
Robin Trower = Strat God
This entire album is fire!
I remember when they first started playing Robin Trower on the radio, it was _so wonderful._ It was as if Jimi Hendrix had come back to life in
the body of Robin Trower, so faithfully did he reproduce Jimi's "sound" in new and thoroughly enjoyable ways.
Robin has aways been Accused of being a Jimi ripoff!
He was not!!
Obviously a Fan of the, 'Man '!!
But has aways taken it his own way!!!...

To me trower IS the best hendrix inspired artist, no other guitarist comes close
FYI, Robin Trower is the guitarist; the bass player is the singer!
That Isaac Hayes sound from Trower's guitar reminds you of Charles "Skip" Pitts from "Shaft." The master of the scratchy "wah-wah" effect. Trower was the second guitarist in Procol Harum before going solo. Very under-rated in his time. At the time, he was mostly compared to his idol, Jimi Hendrix. Nice to hear this again, fellas. Thanks.
Hitting the great stuff today. Trower absolutely killed it 20th Century Blues one of my favorite albums. Hard rocking blues
Bridge Of Sighs. A phenomenal album. To me, his best. I still play my vinyl copy to this day.
Robin Trower is the former guitarist for Procol Harum ("Whiter Shade of Pale"). The 'Bridge of Sighs' album is his sophomore release.
The vocalist/bassist is James Dewar (RIP) and the drummer is Reg Isadore. This entire record is FIRE! I saw Robin in 1975, 1999 and 2009.
Except Robin joined Procul Harum after Whiter Shade of Pale.
@Gary King I know but it is an easier reference than to explain all
Nice, Trower was my FIRST concert.. When I saw him Bill Lordan (from Sly and the Stones) was on drums, Great show!
I saw him in 2019 and he was still so great! His later albums are really good, but I really miss Dewar. Very special singer. It must've been cool to see him in 1975, probably peak popularity?
I think his first. Album. Was Trower
Trower's first 6 albums are stunningly good and never leave my playlist.
Your faces reflect exactly how it makes me feel, great reaction! Thank you men
As a bass player myself, I’ve always said that you can say a lot with just one note. James Dewar shows us that here. Playing that pulsating and hypnotic “C” without any deviation, to me says a lot. Some might disagree, and that’s cool. And Robin is STILL rocking today. Well into his 70’s, but he can still bring it!
Dude, great point. Back in the 70s, I heard this song, and that lone "hypnotic C" caused me to pick up the bass.
This is a great album, I hope you dig into it more.
I used this amazing, underrated album to escape reality back in my high school days! 😎🎧🎸🎹 Great guitarist! 🎸
Me too. We used to turn this up at high volume while cruising the streets of our small town, among other recreational activities. 🙂
Such a great album. Every song a hit.
Yo, guys..."Day of the Eagle" is FAR AND AWAY *the* cut. Please don't miss it. ❤️
Robin Trower song Bridge of Sigh is a must for you gents. I really believe you will Love it. Keep on keeping on Gents❤
They reacted to the live version which is really good but in my humble opinion just doesn’t compare to the studio album version. 😞
So glad you guys stumbled your way in. Robin still tours i think hes 969 yrs old or something. He is the goat of strickly blues/rock in my opion of course. I heard this album for the first time at age 11 ive been a fan ever since. Saw him in a bar in Detroit around early 80's. Do the whole album its great. My personal favorite song is "Day Dream"
Masterpiece album! For me, it's a STORY album- start with first song and play album through to the end! It has a Flow that takes one on a journey. Love, love, love it ❤ ! Enjoyed your enthusiastic reaction.
#Music Monday👍🏻
"I think I'll just sit this one out" 😊
A magical play on words , a rolling stone gathers no moss, a stitch in time saves nine, too many cooks, etc a fantastic band followed trower since procol harum 😉🇬🇧
I turned my son onto this album when he was around 19. He loved it.
Another Excellent album today.. Though a few of his songs were played on FM Radio, he was never a huge sensation. Every song on this album is a great listen.
James Dewar. What a voice! Robin. What a guitarist. Reg with a fab backbeat always. Pure Gold!
This was great. Monday morning and I feel like I just stepped out of the Time Machine with Michael J Fox! Day Of The Eagle (from same album) has the same structure. Last time I saw Robin, James’ son John was on bass and lead vocal. Bill Lordan’s cymbal work was always special. Or perhaps it was Reg Isadore, I forget the order. There weren’t as many toys for guitarists back in the day, but Robin made maximum use of the Wah and MXR Phase 90, then100. Phased cymbals on their recordings was a nice touch, as that became a thing. Anyway, the live album (the stadium concert cover) is a must. It’s a crime that Trower, Tull and Toto aren’t in the R&R Hall of Fame. And that’s just the “T’s.” This is must own vinyl guys! Thanks for another nice reaction, keep em’ coming. 🤘😎
Robin Trower did not get his just due. This is a fabulous album. As always fellas I am impressed with the music that you are reacting to. Great reaction fellas. Much appreciated 🙏
I remember when this record came out. It drew me in much the same as it did you. One of the great complete albums of that era. And its the bass player on vocals, a Scottish dude named James Dewar who was in line to inherit a Scotch fortune before he passed away.
I like this lane of soulful blues rock that these three men occupied (Trower from Procol Harum, English guitarist) Aruban drummer Reggie Isadore (who also recorded with Rick Wright of Pink Floyd) and Dewar from Scotland.
The entire album is awesome.
So glad you found TROWER, man... or HE found YOU😁 either way here's a few apples for tha road...
Day of the eagle
Messin the Blues
Midnight
I Can't wait much longer
(Gonna be more Suspicious)
Shame the Devil
The Fool and Me
and absolutely "Little Bit of Sympathy"!!! happy trails✌
Hey fellas. So glad you're reacting to Robin Trower! I still have this album on vinyl. Another great power trio that I always enjoyed listening to. That's Robin on Lead Guitar, James Dewar on Bass guitar and Vocals and Reg Isadore on drums. Also check out "Day OF The Eagle" from this release. Enjoying your reactions as always. Peace.
Arguably, the MOST underrated and unappreciated guitarist in music. An OG Strat-God...dude is a real tasty guitar player. A large and excellent catalog of material.
I saw him open for King Crimson in 1974, and all these years later it’s still one of the best shows that I ever went to.
Trower is a great guitarist.
But, Reg Isidore (drums) and James Dewar (bass & vocals) deserve some credit, too.
RIP to them both.
There's a live recording of that I think
This is definitely one album you could do a deep dive into because the whole thing is gold. I'm sure I probably requested the song that sometime or another but I'm so glad to hear it finally! Robin doesn't get half the love he needs or deserves! Peace!
I’m a 61 year old white guy. I respect you young men very much. Long live rock and roll!!!!
We appreciate you!!
Another great reaction guys. Robin Trower is a fantastic guitarist. He was heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix. Nothing like the sound of a soaring, wailing cry of a Srat. Check out this and any other song on Robin Trower Love. Superb!
Robin Trower is the guitarist. It is his band.. James Dewar (RIP) was the bassist and vocalist. and the drummer I believe was Bill Lordan.. 3 piece band that brings us the pure rock/blues.. much Hendrix influence in Trower playing.. Simply my favorite back in the 70's!!
Drummer, Reg Isidor.
@@russellmorgan5611 good call, Billy started with Robin on "For Earth Below" (75).
@@russellmorgan5611 yes, thats right.. and then Bill Lordon replaced him..
Saw him in a club in Atlanta in the early 90s with my hubby and his brother. The atmosphere interesting club was lackluster until Trower and the band took the stage. The crowd was electrified from 1st note until the last reverb faded and we continued to call for more. RIP to Trower and my brother-in-law.
It's early to say RIP to Trower, no???? RIP to your brother in law -- glad you have that memory
It was James Dewar the bass player that passed
Mr. BARRON is spot-on "Little Bit of Sympathy" is where to go from here!!🔥
Robin TROWER 👉 bad to the bone marrow 🥴👍
Saw him in an almost empty Amphitheater in the 70’s it was great
Empty ?
That's surprising! Wonder why? Maybe it wasn't publicized well enough.
@@garyclark9618 yeah and wasn’t as well known back then but a few of us knew!
@@flogg8635 he wasn’t as well known until after the Bridge of Sighs then started getting attention
@@Caseydog3 , hard to believe. I thought he was amazing learning about him in about’73/4 ? You’re a lucky one. Never had the chance/ money to go to too many concerts. Thanks for your reply.
An absolutely legendary & iconic MUST HEAR/OWN album,, Excellent from the 1st track to the very last..TRUTH!!
This whole album Bridge of Sighs is excellent. I forgot how much I love this song. In 2009 I took my son to see Robin live at The House of Blues in Los Angeles (gone now). The only problem I've had at shows like this is there always seems to be somebody from 1969 in the crowd always causing a disruption. This hippy who had been drinking started talking to my son like he was too young to know anything about this music and my son who was a 9th grader was about to go off so I stepped in and explained to this hippy that we were there to see Robin and have a good time, leave us the hell alone. He went on to bother some other people.
I regret not seeing trower, i was always into his guitar sound. Hendrix must have really influencd hin...
whoa, this and Aerosmith Lord ... magik Monday!
One of the best albums of all time, would be one that I would have to have on a deserted island .
6.12.23. The Superlative James Dewar’s singing and on Bass, Robin Trower on the Strat! & I believe Reg Isadore on Drums. OTH…”Off The Hook”
Thanks Steven. We appreciate you!!
That’s what I get for re-editing instead of proofreading, I deleted some of my own comments❗️KMFA
R.T. is such a respected musician and songwriter. He still jams in clubs all over the place. The Fool and Me is rippin'. I believe that was a favorite of both David Lee Roth and Eddie Van Halen. Day Of the Eagle is also fire! Great channel, fellas. New sub. Keep them toes a-tappin'! Mr. Ken 😎👍
Thanks Mr Ken!!
LOVE James Dewar's voice.
One of the best, and most creative "in the groove" guitar solos...it takes you on a journey...nice choice gents
To me Robin had heavy Hendrix influence in his music from riffs to pedal usage. A killer guitar player who doesn’t get much conversation. Always enjoy some Robin Trower!
Trower was and is an all time favorite for me. He plays guitar, Jimmy Dewar was his great vocalist back then in the 70's. Dewar has died since, RIP. His voice fit Trower's music perfectly. Trower was hugely popular for a few years, arena headliner. This album Bridge of Sighs won Guitar Player's album of the year back in the day I think. Day of the Eagle from it got some airplay, great song. Little Bit of Sympathy is a great song, one of my favs, Trower still closes shows with it to this day (still kicks out albums every year or 2). Trower is also famous for slow ethereal songs like Daydream and For Earth Below, check out those sometime. And Rock Me Baby from his first album is the best version of that old electric blues I've ever heard. Back in the day, my mom would sing around the house bits of Caledonia or Man of the World choruses from my albums just cause they were catchy and she thought Dewar was great singer.
Trower just killing it on the Strat!
Saw Johnny Winter blow him off the stage in Memphis in 88.
If RT could play to match his facial contortions he'd be unstoppable.
Bridge of Sighs? I have 2 lps and a cd. Damn great lp.
You are right, this song is killer, and it's even better LIVE!! 🏆
A great choice, men! The whole record is fantastic.
OH MAN y’all have chosen A JEWEL❤️
Yeah Robin and James doing their thing. Why they are not in the Rock & Roll Hall of fame is a crime!!!!
James Dewar was one of the greatest Rock Singers in History, RIP!!
Love this song & album! Great selection. 👌
Robin Trower - Too Rolling Stoned
💜 💜 💜 Also great reaction from you guys! Thx.
Saw Robin in the "70"s , Another SICK ASS GUITARIST to SEE LIVE!! 😍😁🔥🎸
So great, you guys are cookin' with Steam NOW!!
Best music reaction video I’ve seen…Trower Power! So appreciate how you guys listen and don’t make it about you…respect🙏. The few comments made were spot on. Thank you.
Thanks for rocking with us!!
One hell of an "outro." Dude was a guitar master up with the best of them.
Live album in Sweden...."I can't wait much Longer"..TOTAL jam..
TROWER POWER!!!!!!!!! Let the man take you to the outer reaches with that guitar.!! We used to call this "Head Music". So underrated.
Some of the heaviest blues you'll ever hear...when that freaky guitar kicks in I get the goose bumps. I was a smokin tokin teen when this came out. I love it as much now as I did back then.
One of my favorites ever...great tune
Love em , day of the eagle, rocks , daydream, slow and beatiful, my favorite 2 songs they do , shows their versatility
Thank You !😊
I am so thrilled y'all gave this band a reaction, as I'm sure you enjoyed it.
How could any person not love it, I mean for real, right?😉🤗😍
I used to cover this in a couple of my high school bands... I LOVE Robin Trower. Some stuff to check out are his albums with Bill Lordan on drums... Later on, after James Dewar left the band, Robin and Bill Lordan teamed up with Jack Bruce from Cream for two albums.
Wow! You guys are doing Robin Trower! Love it! He’s one of my all time favorites and is one of the artists that produced QUALITY music in 4 decades. His 2000’s albums are quality! He didn’t just do it in the 70s - I celebrate his entire collection with the exception of a couple albums in the mid/late 80s, the rest is good to great!!! Like you guys on your reactions! Fun, funny & insightful! Always enjoy it, don’t think I’ve seen another reactor(s) since you guys!
One of the first albums I ever bought…1975,when I was 18 Still have it !
Ah, that takes me back to my high school stoner days.
I saw Robin Trower 3 different times, once in the 70's then in the 80's and the 3rd time in the 90's and all 3 times he sounded the same, l would see him again if he came back around, for sure 👍🤩
I love Robin Trower. The two songs I can't do without on my playlist are,
NO TIME and GONNA TEAR IT UP TONIGHT. The combination of rock and bles is simply too much to resist. Listen and enjoy.
I really love Robins guitar style so uniquely bluesy rock.❤
Saw Robin about 6 years back in his 70s and can still jam!❤
I got to see the Robin Trower power trio with bassist/vocalist James Dewar in 1977. I will never forget it, plus Sammy Hagar, recently departed from Montrose, was the opening act with his debut album, "Nine on a Ten Scale". My ears rang through the next day. Bliss! James Dewar, such a great blues voice!
I love watching you guys your love for music is heartwarming. As 68 year old guy who loves all kinds of music I really appreciate younger people trying different music thank you both keep it up!!
The Robin Trower Band was a very good band when it was Robin,James Dewar and Bill Lordan.This is one of the best albums from the mid '70's.Thanks for doing this one guys!
This entire album is a masterpiece. Take a trip and never leave the house! Yeah I’m that old! Love to watch your reaction and growth!
Great album , great musician, he's not flashy just good solid blues . Really down to earth live.✌️
Robin Trower has had several lead singers during his career (26 studio records to date), but his best records, in the 70's, were produced with JAMES DEWAQR as his lead singer. You won't find many people who would argue that point. Great reaction, TY
