Thanks guys, one of the greatest blues rock albums of all time. Trower is shamanistic in his brilliant guitar playing. James Dewar was one of the greatest blues voices if his generation. RIP James
For me... this is one of the greatest albums ever cut! This song flows right out of "Bridge Of Sighs". It's awesome that you plan on getting it in vinyl:) Every track of this album deserves a reaction because this is an album you can play from start to finish and not want it to end. This is a great album for those cold rainy winter days ahead.
I love Robin Trower, one of my favorites and the older I get the more I like his music! Hoping he gets out on the road once more because I never saw him Live. I celebrate Trowers entire collection!
Every instrument is in the groove and the vocals are stellar…. A Scotsman singing the blues with that deep voice. This album is great from start to finish.
Trower did a few albums with Jack Bruce (bassist and singer for Cream) that are superb stuff as well. "Into Money" is a short but sweet jam you should NOT miss.
Oh yes....this album is essential listening! Robin Trower is a fantastic blues guitarist and James Dewar has that signature voice. I highly recommend you guys do a deep dive into this one. 👌
I saw Robin Trower in 1974 while he was touring in support of this album, he opened for King Crimson. All these years later, it’s still one of the best shows that I’ve ever seen.
**** This song, especially the vocal by James Dewar reaches into my soul. I first heard it around 1978-9 after I went through a very painful divorce. The emotion of the instrumentation, words and James's tone touches so many areas. A truly perfect song and performance. James (RIP) was gone way to soon.
I listened to this album over and over when I was Freshman in high school just because it was different at the time. Trower is so under rated and overlooked...and James Dewar's voice is so soulful...the perfect match to Trower's guitar stylings.
One of the best albums ever made. I heard his live album in 1978 and has been my fav guitarist ever since. Seen him many times and he is such a nice humble person also. He can play such beautiful, haunting music and then the next one will melt your face off.
Hey La & Che, so to help give you a reference to who Robin Trower is, he was also a founding member of a very popular band called "Procol Harem" which was a very big deal from 1967-1971, and then again as a bandleader of his band "Robin Trower Band." For more than six decades Robin Trowers career has known know bounds and at 78 he's still out there performing. He released a new studio album called "No More Worlds to Conquer" on April, 29 2022. Here's a song from the album, if interested. "Robin Trower - Birdsong [Official ]" (with Richard Watts on the vocals) it's not an easy task to try and find a replacement of James Dewar's truly missed vocals, but I think Watt's pulled it off. Great reaction...hope you gentleman have a good day
Hey guys...this whole album is like a STORY. SUPERB if you drop the needle at the beginning and play through til the end! Each song connects into a whole world. Played the hell out of this. Great you felt it too. ❤❤❤❤
Wow this Lp takes me back to a wonderful and much simpler time in my life! I was 17 years old, Stoned, underage in a Funky bar near London, with this Record tucked under my arm ! And this Beautiful girl came up to me and said 'Oh you like Robin Trower?' The rest is old history from my youth, but still a cherished memory from my Teenage 70s I was pretty stylish back then! Long hair, flares , my brothers Long Afghan coat and a Top hat! Luckily there's no photos from back then! If there had been my grown-up kids would still be ripping the piss out of me! Still Loving the music!... X
One of my favorite bands. I was a young adult when this album was released and it's a classic. This song hits hard. I always get a little misty eyed when I hear it. It touches the soul.
This is my favorite song by Mr. Trower a very un appreciated musician. James RIP voice is magical this song has a special meaning to me. Love Robin Trower thanks for reacting to this great song. Keep up the phenomenal work guys..
Trower is one of the greatest blues rock guitar players of all time. First time I heard him in the 70's I was completely mesmerized and he continues playing to this day.
Been a Robin Trower fan for many years! His tone early on reminded me a lot of Hendrix which drew me to his music eventually I learned to appreciate his uniqueness. And yes this track is a Gem, the ambiance and mood of this song is both beautiful yet disturbing to me if that makes sense!? But, I love it. Great reaction. 🤘😊
Last live show we saw was in 2019, my 16th show since 1974. 4:23 A day before the show a buddy asked me “how many times are you going to see Trower”. I said “when one of doesn’t breathe any more” . I love Robin Trower!
Hey fellas. So glad you reacted to this one. (I still have this album on vinyl, by the way) I purchased this album after hearing "Day Of The Eagle" on the radio back in '74. It was produced by Matthew Fisher who was the organist from Trowers former group "Procol Harum". Always loved this track and especially the guitar work at the end. Enjoyed your reaction as always. Peace.
A fantastic album for rock/blues aficionados. Believe it or not Trower is still putting out good music. Check out his 2022 release No More Worlds to Conquer.
Hey guys, this is one of those albums you gotta listen to as a whole, much like Floyd. Love your guys content. One day I’ll tell you about the time I saw SRV in a little bar in NY with about 50 other people on his first American tour supporting the Couldn’t Stand the Weather release…Epic!! Subscribed
I wore out this on 8 Track in my car in HS. I had a lot of friends that would hear it and ask "Who the hell is that???". They would immediately go out and buy this album.
I was 14 when this album came out. Immediately ran out and bought a guitar. Been listening ever since. Seen him play many times, a few up close & personal. One of the most underrated guitarists and Dewar is an unbelievable singer.
What's up guys!! Great pick..I suggest checking out "Day of the eagle", I first got turned onto this album in '78..One of the great guitar players for sure..Shout out from the old metal head from Detroit!! Peace and love as always!!
I 100% agree with you. Unfortunately they decided to do the live version of Bridge Of Sighs a few months ago. The live version is good but doesn’t come close to the studio album version.
Very haunting sound... Love Robin Trower's guitar work and the soulful vocals of James Dewar... FYI: Robin Trower was the lead guitarist for the English rock group Procul Harum back in the late 60's with huge hits Whiter Shade of Pale, Salty Dog, Conquistador, Whisky Train and many more. All are worth checking out on your channel.
One of the very best albums of the 70s, Bridge of Sighs was magnificent, every song is golden. If you have not heard the title track, do that next, if you have, do A Little Bit of Sympathy. Robin Trower's 70s output is dope, try more, you will love him. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎶
Great reaction guys! Robin Trower is one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. He was heavily influenced by Jimi Hendrix. You can hear that similar style with his use of effects especially the wah wah and of course like Hendrix he played a Fender Stratocaster. Still performing today at a very high level.
Hey guys, I love listening to your channel. I got one for you. After Stevie Ray Vaughan died, his band joined up with Charlie Sexton and Doyle, Bramhall II to form the band Arc Angels Chris Layton on drums. Tommy Shannon on base. Too many ways to fall, or the shape I am in. If you want to see him live try she’s all right. A tribute song that is heartfelt about the loss of Stevie Ray is see what tomorrow brings. These guys are stacked with talent and deserve a listen. Both Doyle and Charlie sing and play killer guitars. That’s my two cents worth.
It’s great to see you hear this great, 50 year old rock music, and recognize its quality. I whole heartedly agree that you need this album, Bridge of Sighs, on vinyl, and I suggest you get his Long Misty Days on vinyl also. Then go back and dig into the Procol Harum catalog. Watching and listening to your reactions reminds me of how extensive the early rock library is, and how great so much of the music was. I love that you are digging deeper into the albums, past the radio hits, to the real gems that often never made it to the radio. Or if they did occasionally make it to the radio it was in a special show, like “7th Day” or “King Biscuit’s Flower Hour”. On 7th Day they would play seven albums in their entirety, on the seventh day (Sunday). Keep enjoying the music guys!
One of the all times great albums! I was at a friends house passing the bud! He put this album on and the groove was insane! Still playing this album today! It keeps the older me connected to the younger me! Awesome vibe! Chiguy
glad you like that, Gentlemen. another "bluesy" ballad. If you don't know this trio, you've heard plenty blues and can assosciate. Singer, here, has the type of voice for this music. You want to hear golden vibes --- listen Mel Torme.
This and the Twice Removed From Yesterday album are my favorites from Robin Trower. Sometimes I'll loop "Hannah" and "Man of the World" for like half an hour just to take me back to 73💫
Thanks guys, one of the greatest blues rock albums of all time. Trower is shamanistic in his brilliant guitar playing. James Dewar was one of the greatest blues voices if his generation. RIP James
8.8.23. This whole Album is Superb©️🎸 James Dewar’s singing is so perfect🎯
damn right man
Yes
Great bass player too.James had such a soulful voice.
For me... this is one of the greatest albums ever cut! This song flows right out of "Bridge Of Sighs". It's awesome that you plan on getting it in vinyl:) Every track of this album deserves a reaction because this is an album you can play from start to finish and not want it to end.

Amen
My late husband was friends with Jimmy Dewar and loved this album. I had Bridge of Sighs played at his funeral
wow! i would have loved to have met James Dewar, Beautiful Voice, how did he Pass???
@@louiesalinas4720 Jimmy had a stroke
I'm jealous. What a voice he had.
This is a must own album and it's really cool you're hearing this now, because you'll definitely hear how this influenced other genres later on.
I love Robin Trower, one of my favorites and the older I get the more I like his music! Hoping he gets out on the road once more because I never saw him
Live. I celebrate Trowers entire collection!
Whole album is a vibe.
Couldn't agree more.
100%
Indeed.
What DM said! Chill listening to the entire album.
Me and my late wife loved to slow dance to this song, we did it for 38 yrs. Love this album, now this song has a different meaning really miss her.✌️
Sorry for your loss 😢
Wow... I just listened to the lyrics from your perspective... I get it... May you be rejoined with her in the end (beginning) God Bless 👍
This entire album is killer good. I think this one really show cases Jim Dewars beautiful voice.
Trower's name get left off most people's top guitarists most of the time but he's as good as anybody that ever played.
The whole album is a serious groove. It’s worth the purchase.
My fave road trip CD!!
took the words right out my mouth
I wore the grooves out of this album
I believe I had to buy another one after I played the hell out of my first one. One of my favorite albums!
I did...also.......I had to buy another album..!!!!!!.................every song on this is great.....
Let's hear it for James Dewar with those vocals and that bass. One of my favorite singers from that era.
This trio was brilliant. Robin Trower is still making music and performing. He made a fine new album two years ago.
Every instrument is in the groove and the vocals are stellar…. A Scotsman singing the blues with that deep voice. This album is great from start to finish.
Jeez....this entire album is top notch blues jam. Trower is so underrated and always pulls in massive talent around him.
Trower did a few albums with Jack Bruce (bassist and singer for Cream) that are superb stuff as well. "Into Money" is a short but sweet jam you should NOT miss.
@@dcmanuel7232 Jack Bruce true legend.
Oh yes....this album is essential listening! Robin Trower is a fantastic blues guitarist and James Dewar has that signature voice. I highly recommend you guys do a deep dive into this one. 👌
I saw Robin Trower in 1974 while he was touring in support of this album, he opened for King Crimson.
All these years later, it’s still one of the best shows that I’ve ever seen.
That must have been amazing. I'm jealous!
Saw a show from that tour as well 👍
Saw Robin Trower headlining in 1977 in Australia with James on bass / vocals. Incredible set. Album never gets old. Top 10 all time for me.
**** This song, especially the vocal by James Dewar reaches into my soul. I first heard it around 1978-9 after I went through a very painful divorce. The emotion of the instrumentation, words and James's tone touches so many areas. A truly perfect song and performance. James (RIP) was gone way to soon.
Nobody else has Trower's tone. He's one of the GOAT's
Saw these guys in ‘74 when this came out. This track has always been one of my favorites. Thanks for covering it. James Dewar on bass and vocals!
I listened to this album over and over when I was Freshman in high school just because it was different at the time. Trower is so under rated and overlooked...and James Dewar's voice is so soulful...the perfect match to Trower's guitar stylings.

Wish you'd also commented on James Dewar's magical vocals on this track. He was such an exceptional singer.
Hey guys...this whole album is like a STORY. SUPERB if you drop the needle at the beginning and play through til the end! Each song connects into a whole world. Played the hell out of this. Great you felt it too. ❤❤❤❤
Wow this Lp takes me back to a wonderful and much simpler time in my life!
I was 17 years old, Stoned, underage in a Funky bar near London, with this Record tucked under my arm !
And this Beautiful girl came up to me and said 'Oh you like Robin Trower?'
The rest is old history from my youth, but still a cherished memory from my Teenage 70s
I was pretty stylish back then!
Long hair, flares , my brothers Long Afghan coat and a Top hat!
Luckily there's no photos from back then!
If there had been my grown-up kids would still be ripping the piss out of me!
Still Loving the music!...

“About to begin” is another slow mellow evocative song off this brilliant album
@lyn, completely agree. Another of 'The Masters' unheralded masterpieces, like the track our hosts reviewed SO well
People should go to jail for not knowing Robin Trower.
This is a GREAT album guys, it's what l listen to when l go for a long drive. Saw him 3 times within 3 decades 🤟🎵
A legendary & iconic album from beginning to the very end..A MUST OWN album.
Robin Trower "For Earth Below" title track is a must listen!
One of my favorite bands. I was a young adult when this album was released and it's a classic. This song hits hard. I always get a little misty eyed when I hear it. It touches the soul.
This is my favorite song by Mr. Trower a very un appreciated musician. James RIP voice is magical this song has a special meaning to me. Love Robin Trower thanks for reacting to this great song. Keep up the phenomenal work guys..
More goodness from a true "Master Of the Stratocaster". Had this album since it came out, and it is always close to my turntable. Play it LOUD.
Absolutely a album of perfection 💥 I listen 👂 to these superb tracks on a regular basis. The best 🎸🥁🎶
Trower is one of the greatest blues rock guitar players of all time. First time I heard him in the 70's I was completely mesmerized and he continues playing to this day.
This album is superb from beginning to end. My favorite track is "Day of the Eagle." Everybody I knew had this on their playlist.
The whole album is just beyond words
Nothing like a little Trower to get the heads bobbing this morning. Excellent album all the way through. No filler.
Been a Robin Trower fan for many years! His tone early on reminded me a lot of Hendrix which drew me to his music eventually I learned to appreciate his uniqueness. And yes this track is a Gem, the ambiance and mood of this song is both beautiful yet disturbing to me if that makes sense!? But, I love it. Great reaction. 🤘😊

This album & a bong go well together ✌️
So many songs, so many moods over so many years. So much to listen to.
Little bit if Sympathy...Day of the Eagle...MUSTS🔥🔥

One of the best guitar albums ever 😮
This is an incredible album and really is iconic .
one of a very few albums you listen start to finish, superb, another disciple of hendrix that is one f the best!!!
A fantastic album for rock/blues aficionados. Believe it or not Trower is still putting out good music. Check out his 2022 release No More Worlds to Conquer.
One of the greatest albums ever
I could have listened to that outro for another 5 minutes or more! That is really good!
Any track on that album is 🔥
Song full of anticipation....great quote.
Hey guys, this is one of those albums you gotta listen to as a whole, much like Floyd. Love your guys content. One day I’ll tell you about the time I saw SRV in a little bar in NY with about 50 other people on his first American tour supporting the Couldn’t Stand the Weather release…Epic!!

Album is FIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIRE!!! Such a GREAT reaction, Guys! ENJOY YOUR CHANNEL!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
The entire Bridge of Sighs album is brilliant - really a classic that keeps Trower high on the list of my fave guitarists.
Great album...perfect for the late Jimmy Dewar's vocals.
I wore out this on 8 Track in my car in HS. I had a lot of friends that would hear it and ask "Who the hell is that???". They would immediately go out and buy this album.
Same! 😁
Awesome....NO ones else is doing stuff like this, you guys WIN!! Caledonia next please!!

Great album been listening to it for 40+years
Perfect rock album. All good.
Just listened to the LP for about the 673rd time. I’m moving it back into my top 10 rock LPs all time.
This cd is going into my coffin. Thats how much I loved this album. I want it with me for eternity.
I saw Robin Trower live at BB King's in New York. Very intimate. We sat at the first table from the stage.
There is Classic Rock. There is Antique Rock. This is the best of Ancient Rock...
This song should always be preceded by "Bridge of Sighs." One flows right into the other.
I 100% agree with you. Unfortunately they decided to do the live version of Bridge Of Sighs a few months ago. The live version is good but doesn’t come close to the studio album version.
This is one of the greatest albums ever recorded.
Always loved the outro, where there are about 4 different little guitar things going on. One of the greatest albums of all time.
too rollin stoned
