    One of the UK's greatest blues rock singers - Jimmy Dewar on bass and vocals. A huge influence on me, he never gets in the way of Robin's guitar pyrotechnics and this clip is a great example of how well this unit just clicked.

    I'll be 62 this month, 6/26/59, and I just want to say thank you to RT for coming along in my life when I was just starting to appreciate the monster sounds you can get from a strat. He defines the power, presence and depth of tone one can summon from wood, steel and amplification with his fingertips. Add some Wahs, whoas and Wows and, simply put, you've got the real magic only he can summon. The stuff we all need to fill in those parts of our brains that insist on demanding performance, excitement pleasure and satisfaction all at once, so we can feel assured that we got what we wanted and more than what we expected, never letting us down every time we hear his playing. Amen!

    Robin added a special style of blues,rock ,jazz and psychedelic roll to get his original tones and had to express it over the 50 year span he has played ! Without his attempt at music......it indeed would be a" Dull world"! His songs still jam all over the world on Radio ! I remember the radio station KZEW- " The Zoo" 98 FM Dallas/ Ft worth always jamming his songs early in the morning to get us all up and out of bed to go to school! And then of course come home and smoke a few bowls of good Columbian redbud ! Go trinity Trojans class of 1980 ..... Euless,Tx

    I went to see Robin in a dinky bar in my hometown Middletown Ohio in the 80's and he did 2 sets and was absolutely fantastic. I have always loved him and his telling of the blues. Made me happy and sad at the same time. He was so flipping good. The place was packed and he was VERY well received. A nice guy too. Never got the appreciation he so richly deserves.

    I saw Trower at the Civic Arena in Pittsburgh PA. That’s where I also saw iron butterfly, traffic, the stones, Clapton, the doors..Yes I am old now, but one thing I can say, today’s kids missed it.. you missed the golden age of rock ‘n’ roll that is still popular today on the radio and record sales. We had Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Joe Cocker, Santana, canned heat, Crosby stills and Nash, spirit, blind faith, Derek and the dominoes, Fleetwood Mac, the band,Boston, ZZ Top, Jethro Tull, the Yardbirds, the kinks, jefferson airplane, Big brother and the holding company,The Moody blues, the rolling stones,the guess who,cream, the grateful dead,, Bob Dylan, The best live guitar player I ever saw, Alvin Lee, Big brother and the holding company, the Doobie brothers, iggie pop,Chicago, yes, Pink Floyd, The Guess Who,the who,Peter Frampton, AC DC, Creedence Clearwater, the byrds, The Allman brothers, vanilla fudge, Steve Miller band,All of these bands had real musicians, and no two sounded alike..
    yes, the current generation missed it....What do they have today? Synthesized music & Taylor Swift... They are all made of ticky-tacky and they all sound the same.
    I think just about everyone born before 1999 would agree that the past is far brighter than the present and the future !
    people born after 1999, you missed it !

      The trouble with Malmsteen and Vai etc is most of the 'playing' is electronic technology and sounds more like a musical typewriter than guitar playing from the soul.

    In this era in Ontario Canada we would snag suckers in the 16mi creek. Who would think that fish and rock so much in common?

    I think I understand why Eric Clapton hasn’t asked Robin Trower to join him on stage . It would be to embarrassing for Eric.

      I agreed. But if Eric would’ve stuck to playing raw and hard blues it wouldn’t be. He was just as good as robin in cream or D&D

      ​@@michaelkelly9170 ....Not once in his entire career was Clapton half as good as Trower ....even on a bad night.
