I hear Trower and Dewar and first I smile and then I just laugh. So masterful. Unique. Magnificent. I need a constant dose.
James Dewar voice was perfect for Trower's music.
The guitar playing of Robin Trower was so exceptional and Jimmy Dewars voice was Angelic and mesmerizing.! Mystical magic!
I saw Robin six times in the early- to mid-'70s. Three with Procul Harum, three solo. The last performance I went to, in Flint, Michigan, was mind-blowing. I worked my way right up to the stage. Daydream was one of the songs he played when I was up close, and at one point in his solo the audience was dead silent, and Robin took it down to a whisper; I swear you could have heard a pin drop on the stage. It was the most beautiful moment I've ever experienced at a concert. Rock on, Robin!
I think I'm gonna cry...just too beautiful!!!
@@leahdaugherty4376 same 🥲
hot damn, I am jealous of you. Musta been an incredible show. You lucky dawg !
We were spellbound
We're the flowers kiss the sky.
Jimmy Dewar, the Pavarotti of rock.
James Dewer had the sweetest singing voice. Full of heart.
Mr Dewar's voice fit perfectly with Robin's guitar work. There will never be another.
I so major agree with you...they have been my favorite for decades..they spolied me and I cant even listen to blues bands in my city anymore, they bore me lol..Robn Trower, the King of blues.
You got that right. Robin alway had such a great tine to his guitar and nothing had such a smooth tone as Jimmy Dewar’s voice. None of these older songs from Bridge Of Sighs era sound right without Dewar’s unique voice. I really miss that golden voice. Luckily we still have Trower’s awesome guitar to enjoy, but damn it ain’t the same without Jimmy. RIP Jimmy.
Match Made In Heaven!!!
They were a perfect pairing I was too young to catch him with Dewar but I have seen Robin several times since the 80's there will never be anyone that can replace James not that Davy Patterson was not a great substitute and his latest bass player is very close however James will always be the greatest imho. Robin just keep getting better I wish I had a tenth of his talent and his tone.
@@threalismaradona9899 Hell ya,This shit's illegal
Robin Trower had such a tone and touch and soul...one of my favorite players ever. However, Jimmy Dewar had one of the best voices in rock and will forever be the unsung hero of that great band. Great song...
R. I P. JAMES . .. D.
Sir robin is in MY OPPO. The GREATIST GUITAR hero songwriter on planet 🌎 earth of COARSE so is my other guitar star mr FRANK HANNON CHECK HIM OUT DIG IT .
.
Nobody has ever dialed a Strat’s tone better than Robin, it’s perfect.
And James’s voice, the dude could sing the phone book and it would still bring me to tears.
I saw you guys in Md in75 it was my first concert I was just 9 years old the best show in my life
Dewar was great, that's right.
Oh James Dewar if only you knew how AMAZING you were, so sorely missed xxxxx
My husband, gone now 17 years, turned me on to this song. Love it!!
This is one of the best performances ever, really just superb. I don't think words can capture its beauty.
I wish I had the people of my generation who could understand this music and we can jam to this together. 😟For now, I only have my Dad to enjoy this music with.
I get you. My brother was only 3 years younger than me and he and his mates hated Trower! It was generational mostly but the only thing I didn’t like about my brothers mates!
Forgotten glory... What a voice and the guitar is perfect
There is a petition to get Robin Trower into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame I signed it and I suggest if you love his music as much as me that you sign it too, so far it only has 71 signatures which seems like a bad joke to me
I'd sign it in a heartbeat
Seen these guys in the early eighties incredible band
Where do you go to sign?
Where can we sign it ?You mean he is not already in it..wtf
He’s too good for that garbage
James definitely was one of THE voices of R&R. Fantastic stuff !!!!
"Robin Trower Live" 1976 was one of the records I listen the more at this period.
Great player, fantastic feeling and tasty notes !
This is truly one of Robins most purest, Cleanest and Soulfulness than any other recordings,& Robin improvises, greatly, what are the most underrated guitarists ever !!!
I was at this show !! Robin was showing of his new 50,000 watt system ... hell yeah
Yep
Robin and James had a musical bond made in heaven! RIP James...
Total joy and even awe at Trower and Dewar. I mean the tonality!!!
My favourite drummer with Robin and James. Respect to Bill.........
This performance is so beautiful it brought tears to my eyes.
One of his best go robin
And it always brings me to tears. Precious Wonder years. And Robin’s guitar 🎸 Oh mee oh my my
This song ruins me everytime...Love It
I still miss James Dewar.
All I can say is..why doesn't this have millions of views! An amazing performance and inspiring track to listen to. Such space between his notes creates another level to this experience.
David Apanah because its a hidden gem
I agree, how could it not? You can't get any better than this fabulous BEAUTIFUL excellent song. We should consider ourselves blessed because we hear it that way! Those who are not here weren't.
I called the local radio station and requested this song, they told me it was too old to play. WTH! Unbelievable Lousy excuse!
The tone is such a feature that you need to experience it at least once on good to great quality speakers or headphones ( or even better, live) to fully appreciate and know what to listen for. great without, outstanding next level with. Some people when hearing it for the first time on low quality speakers might think it's too slow.
I don’t understand why there isn’t more subscribers. Why some people don’t subscribe when it benefits your feed on media. You will always have more interesting choices when it knows what to feed you. Support our Forefather’s of Rock n Roll ..channel.
seen trower play this in a small club. later in his life. it sounded frozen in time. it captivated my soul. were did all the guitare slingers go. thank god for you tube.
We're out here.
It's coming full circle. I have a feeling that things are going to come back around. To everything turn turn turn.
Ive been playing guitar since I was a kid and always kept to my blues based rock and soul roots and have never compromised. I never cared about pop music in my time so far and I just knew someday things are gonna come back to how it was in the 50s 60s and 70s.
Now I feel it's actually coming to pass!
So hold tight just a little bit longer.
We have a few greats out there now and mark this down on your calendar brother. MIKE DAVIS IS COMING TO FULFILL A
ROCK'N'ROLL PROMISE.
I don't mean to sound arrogant.
I just know it.
As a last note. All the guitar companies are really stepping up their quality control and coming out with instruments just like the originals to accommodate the need for this renaissance of quality guitar music that's on the horizon for this century.
Not to mention the amplifiers.
Peace love and soul brother!
Dewar's honey voice was a pure compliment to Robin's guitar mastery...
The best in soul music get them robin
magic. pure magic.. Robin is the best!
Dewar's vocals are so effortless. He's so good it looks like he's not even breaking a sweat.
I’m 15 years old again when I hear this tune and all the memories and feelings come back
The same for me, Bill O. 😊
Seriously. A commercial in the middle of Robin's solo? That's damn near sacrilegious!!!
Hate it, but so glad a I was just introduced, by a neighbor, who this man is.
Trower's a given but Dewar's voice is as smooth as blue silk. Kids don't normally like their parent's music but listening to this with my dad on a crappy cassette tape in my childhood home kitchen switched something on inside me.
This is just Fucking Incredible!!
Right on!
This song has me spellbound!😱
1974 first concert of my life..... Robin Trower opened (not) certain but I believe
sly and Family Stone in Omaha at the old Civic auditorium. Trower should have been the headliner! Those were great times! Still have the ticket stub
Can't quite explain how weird it is to see this. I was there as a 13 year old. Just about to turn 14. Remember this vividly. Just saw Robin in Petaluma sadly without James, but still a fantastic show.
I could listen to this over and over !
Same here
I REMBER LISTENING TO TROWER AND OTHERS ON AN EXTREMELY SOPHISTICATED STEREO--GIANT ALTEC VALENCIAS-YAMAHA CA 1000 AMP TECHNICS TURNTABLE WITH MY BROTHER DARRELL AND BEST FRIEND RANDY CARTER R.I.P. BOTH OF THEM AND JUST MELTING ON THE COUCH TO THIS SONG AFTER A FEW TOKES 1976 ! UNREAL !
James Dewer.. what a haunting voice, there will never be another like it...
10:12 He was even so overwhelmed by his own performance that he was left without words himself!
That was good
HE HAS THIS GUITAR ON FIRE.
James Dewar was a very powerful vocalist. Very emotional which I think is what music really is! Evokes feelings beyond words. I don't think most people knew that the majority of the songs were written by Robin himself. He was my first real music influence as a teenager in the 1970's. I must have listened to " For Earth Below" at least 15 times a day! The last " Procul Harum" album has his initial first tribute to Jimi Hendrix, although I don't remember now the title! That song is his own vocals. I saw him play Tampa Stadium in 1976 when " Robin Trower Live" was issued and right before " Long Misty Days" came out which I loved! I always stayed with him but let go a little when all the major people began to go disco! Most powerful music influence of my life!
Agree on Dewar. One of the odd things that I came across was that the original idea was a trio with Frankie Miller singing. That would have been very interesting as FM voice was similar to Dewar's. Also saw him in '76 @ Winterland in SF (Tommy Bolin opened the show) and this song was the highlight. I think the Procul Harem song is "Song for a Dreamer" (the LP is "Broken Barricades". Last time I saw him - 5 years ago - he was doing all the singing.
This song brings tears to my eyes of love lost in the past. We were
When I see Robin Trower, I think about my band days and how I was so influenced by his playing. I remember the first time I heard "Daydream", I interrupted my friends that were near me, pointed to the radio and said, "Who is that? THAT's how I want to play guitar"!
I was at this show as a kid. Sat in the line all day but ended up sitting in the balcony. I loved it. I seem to remember multiple encores. My favorite Trower track and Mike Bloomfield told he it was his as well. He had respect for Trower.
This is the first time i have allowed myself to listen to another
version of this beautiful song .. (and feel i picked the right one)
Trower and early Floyd ....do you need anything else?Robin...the guy that can bend a note around a telephone pole and bring it back clean 😎
That's some creative writin' Michelle
telephone pole..perfect
Best description ever!
Never gets old, top 10 songs of all time in my opinion.
Trower one of greatest strat players of all time , the tone of his strat through the Marshall's as the other guy said,is phenomenal.
Alot of Daydreaming going on during the endemic, this song brings comfort
Winterland was such a great place.Alot of sweet air and sweet ladies.
What an absolutely killer player. He was so awesome back then, still rollin' along today & sounding as good as ever, really. That power trio of him, Dewar & Isidore was untouched.
I love all kinds of killer newer stuff, lots of modern heavy stuff etc., but nothing now compares to this killer era of guitar blasting....it was just a regular thing, to see musicianship of this calibre back then; even though guys like Trower were at the top of the heap.....
I started playing guitar the next day...43 years ago....
Masterpiece!!!
That guitar and that voice old-timey man I love it. Oh I'm a dinosaur too
I will NEVER forget this show! RT makes exquisite music.... and I love these lines: "We were children in the Garden, where the flowers kissed the sky. And the birds sang out in wonder, as the days went sailing by"... so, SO good!! Particularly LOVE Robin's smile at the end of this song!! Such a humble man, happy to be making other folks happy by doing something he was born to do.
Lucky you getting to a RT show. Never managed that myself but just love the music. So underrated but I think these 3 were a perfect rock band. You sure put up a lovely comment Carol.
Namaste, Don Nicoll. Gratzi for the compliment on the comment!
Those smiles are the best. He's letting us know he's enjoying the event as much as we are....
Epic and he still plays this well. Jimmy has/had no equal. Winterland times were the best. Thank God the memories are still clear! lol
Didn't get a chance to see Robin until 1990 at a small beer joint in Memphis. Can you guess. Ya think Robin blew the doors off of that place that night? Lmfao
I was there for this! I took my little brother with me it was his first concert we had a blast!!! he brought 40 tons of music with him, That was what the advertisement was all about before the concert. The man can play a guitar and that's a fact..
We're was this Tom Adams?
San Francisco California
What a solo ! Tears were flowing from a grown man 👍
One of the all time best guitar works ever. EVER!!!
Trower ,,!, this band is. A 😊 very special man in those days.🎹🎶🔊🎸🎸💪🏼
Wow. Emotional music and thoughtful lyrics. Such a sharp contrast to most of todays music where the singer often sounds like they are reciting the recipe for baking a cake.
I was so lucky to be at Winterland inSF to experience Trower and the Trower band!,Iwas definitely spell bond 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎶🎶🎶🥁
Dewar-- late great blue eyed soul man
Great playing and great singing by this trio. Such a great great song...
Trower is amazing. Love the space and emotion he puts into his playing. So soulful. He such a nice, humble guy too. Jimmy Dewar had an amazing tone to his vocals too.
Just saw him in Milwaukee and his solo was about ten minutes lt left me spellbound... I told my wife that'll likely be the best guitar solo you'll ever hear
I love you, that is excellent 👍❤️
JFC, I've been listening to Trower for decades, this is the first time I've heard this recording. Holy hell, what a display of raw talent. This is a virtuoso, this man. That level of natural ability is just amazing to me
What a great band! Seen them in 78, mesmerizing and hypnotized by the sound of his guitar and the lead singer!
Hot damn...one of The best performances I've ever heard of this tune...
Saw them 76 or 77. Simply the best concert I ever attended
Power Trower_+_+_+ There is more to this man than meets the eye.
CHANNEL THE POWER TROWER!
15, my first concert at Winterland. Journey was incredibly good (before Steve Perry) Robin Trower was even better. Thanks for posting this!
He's blowing out my speakers with those Marshal Amps
Absolutely agree....1 of my favourite voices of all time
Dewar💜💜💜
Hope he can return to touring…never disappointed …seen him every chance i’ve had since..1975…RIP..J.Dewar
I So LOVE This! Robin is one of my very favorite guitar players. Magnificent!!!
thanks for the wonderful vid my friend.... James was possibly the best kept secret in rock history!
One of my fave Trower songs.
I'd have to say this song is my kind of Rock and Roll! Music that comes from the heart. Not meant for radio but would make me tune in.
Only one singer could compete with James... Paul Rogers.
Perfect rendition of one of the penultimate "hippie" anthems of the '70's, my fav by him. Play on Robin!
Trower is a legend
My favorite Trower song. Great version. He goes places I've never heard him go before.
This is pure
Thinking about all our spellbound times long ago,...in those gardens where we would meet to sit in the moments,..watching the whole world from our garden,..living our times,...an eternal echo now,...from that garden.
I miss my garden and those times,....But I am still SPELLBOUND.........................................................................................................................................
One of my all time favorite songs ever! "where the skyes and the ocean meet"
+JRoberts1260 Me too...right up there with Stanley Clark Lopsy Lu.
Forgive me for I cannot help myself. Its, skies. Not, skyes. That's all😁, my work is done.

"And the day went sailing by"
@@lauremurkuns7059, not quite. You need to work on your punctuation.
That was absolutely hypnotic. Peace
Oh My God!!!!
The most beautiful tune in Trowers catalogue. Dewars vocals are iconic.
My God...what a celestial song that is. I prefer to listen to it while I'm alone with no distractions...I close my eyes, and I actually FEEL the music touch me n literally transport my spirit out of my body! I can look down at myself, eyes closed n just getting off on it...a total mind f__k when music can physically touch you and take you away...
I hope you have some nice , studio-quality headphones. Made for a tune like this
A friend and I saw Trower at a small nightclub back in the 80's. While waiting in line to get in, we saw some roadies hauling equipment through a nearby side door. We asked someone to keep our place in line for a bit, and went into the club through that door. Trower was on stage, playing some licks, adjusting his equipment, playing some more, etc., and we were like 8 feet away watching this, and there was like nobody around to hassle us. We were both in bands at the time and loved his music, so we were just digging it. We finally dragged ourselves away and got back into the line, just as they were letting everyone into the nightclub.
I grew up listening to Trower and I attending many of his show back in the 70s and early 80s and I will admit I took for granted the greatness of James Dewar's voice. I am sorry James , RIP
I was at this most memorable concert in SFO, as a young college student. Never will forget James Dewar's voice, and Robin of course was unbelievably amazing!!!
Feeling of space and stars listingin to Robin trower ✌🙏✌🙏✌🙏✌⭐⭐⭐⭐🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈
I will make it simple for everyone...The most soulful vocals ever heard....The greatest guitar emotional ever of all time
We were laughing in a daydream
With the world beneath our feet
And the sun smiled on the water
Where the skies and the ocean meet
We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound
We were listening down a rainbow
As the leaves fell to the ground
Whipering as we tumbled
And the wind laughed at the sound
We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound
We were spellbound
Ohh spellbound
We were children in the garden
Where the flowers kiss the sky
And the birds sang out and wonder
As the day went sailing by
We were spellbound
Spellbound
Ohh spellbound
Spellbound
Ohh
So beautiful
Ethereal
The best lyrics. This song is forever
wow that guitar is speaking through him. He is the BEST EVER! as was Jimmie DeWar.
Guitar and him where one !
Close to perfection---And Live!!!
Dewar sends shivers down my spine, Compounding Robin's reverberations in my soul...
