I met Robin backstage in 1987, he is humble, decent, a real gentleman! When I complimented his awesome mastery of the guitar, his reply was, "I'm not really THAT good". Robin, yes you are! NOBODY plays like you. I doubt there will ever be another like you.
I've seen him talking some on RUclips and you can tell he's a humble gentleman. God bless him for that. We need more people like him in this sad ole world.
Bought Bridge of Sighs, back in 1976 I think as a 17 yr old! I just turned 59, and how REFRESHING, he still sounds!! Especially with most of the rubbish on the radio, today!!😊
me to, 17 & 59...you know what is a trip? Now I am INVISIBLE. Sure I was decent looking,... youth is gorgeous. But geez, right around two years ago, nobody sees me! They look right through me. It was fun, but I totally dig the new ananominity. I can pick up all the rocks in a rock shop that has signs all over that say DO NOT TOUCH or I can fish for the fish I want at the pet store. Nobody raises an eyebrow. It's too bad I don't have any real rascal moves.Does anyone have any suggestions?
That record for some reason just resonnated with me ... that tone .... just like hearing him now ... can hear the wind blowing the chill setting in , the activities ahead legal or not ...
Robin Trower is the most underrated guitarist of my time. I saw the original band in1984 at a club in Detroit and many times since. His style is one of a kind. Never to be duplicated. The feeling from his music is freedom!! Bless you Robin Trower.
jethrodassam I told you so, no body can do it like that he is incredibly gifted. We are all better people. Because he shares his gift of music with us.
I met Robin at a bar I used to frequent. He played and he let me play his start to show him I knew his songs then I played Day of the eagle for him. Best day of my life....
Robin Trower has a guitar 🎸 sound all his own. Nobody matches up to his music 🎶 🎵. He really does feel the music. I had a lot of his albums back in the 80's. I'm 64 now and still love ❤ 😍 💖 his 🎶 🎵 music!
Being a guitarist myself and playing in a few bands, Robin isn't up there noodling or just going through the motions. He totally feels the music in him and kills it up there!!! but it's also in large part to the stellar musicians playing with him. A solid bassist and drummer allow the guitarist freedom to be creative and play what they want to hear. This video is a great example of such. Awesome!!!
Mark Connors, I know what you mean. a great rhythm section gives the guitarist room to blossom. I'm sure Pete Townsend would agree with you. I'm a guitarist in my late 60's. I grew up with his music. I started playing guitar in 1975. As with a gazillion others my age, the Bridge of Sighs album was a real head turner. And it opened up our ears to everything else Robin did. I still say Robin needs to be experienced live to truly appreciate his musical skills. It won't be a concert - it will be an experience! The concert of this video does an excellent job and the sound quality is excellent. But one really needs the cd, a great stereo and headphones, and sit back on a couch undisturbed for the whole concert. Play it loud.
@Chas No Like you, I put my guitars away for a while and got a real job. My ex-drummer buddy of mine convinced me to take it up again, if for no other reason than to feel your fingers around a neck again. Yes, get that strat restrung, adjusted by a guitar tech if necessary, buy a portable 20 watt amp and start playing again. Life is too short to say, "If only I ................." I'm in my late 60's playing in a band. I practice every day.
Robin is embedded in my teenage memories, some of which.., I cant actually remember, because I was *rolling* _too_ *stoned* - lol. It is fantastic to watch this and see him still jammin'.
Keith Kacner I saw Robin in 75 or 76. He was the opening act, middle act was King Crimson and the headliner was Ten Years After. Still get goosebumps, just thinking about it.
This man loves to play the Stratocaster. Robin Trower, in a league of his own. No question about the Hendrix influence, but Trower is a compilation of all the players that have gone before him in the world of rock n' roll guitar. When I listen to this band, the singer is but a very small part of the gig. The focus is Robin Trower.
I can't believe I forgot to include Robin on my list of favorite guitarists on the ELO thread. He should have been towards the top of my list, for sure.
***** I totally agree with you about Jimmy. What an amazing voice he had. He did his own "copying", though, and his influences were/are clear! But the combo of Robin's guitar and Jimmy's voice (not to dismiss the drummer) were pure magic. Miss you, Jimmy!
***** Believe me when I say, thank you for your comment, Joe brooklyn. This certainly is not the first time that I've made a comment that is way off the mark. My saying that "...the singer is but a very small part of the gig." is unfair.
Ahh one of the Greats still bringin the house down...saw him at the Coronet Hotel...a tiny little Bar in Kitchener Ontario....he shook my hand and gave me his pick "Herco" was the brand and thick as a brick !!
Definately worth a listen for anyone who enjoys perfect, meticulous guitar playing.....Robin is definately right up there with the greatest.....AND....he's STILL ALIVE!!!! THANK GOD!
A very Happy 77th Birthday Robin Leonard Trower 9 March 1945.. Born in Catford, London... A London boy with a thirst for electric blues... Many, many more Robin Leonard. Cheers Mate!!
Wow. I like Robin too. He is great, but so was Hendrix, who is impossible to overrate. No need to diminish Hendrix, or for that matter, the black people who like Hendrix to make Trower great. Trower's work and longevity are testimony enough. The truth of the matter is that about 2-3% of the audience has no musical taste. They hate everything, black or white.
69ragster why wait let's get together and administer some shrooms, take control of our destiny,and check out the cosmos from the inside,I can get you there. Or were you just foolin. Peace & Sounds. Love Whiplash Watson.
The most underrated guitar player of all-time. When the greats are mentioned his name is rarely heard but by God, his work is iconic...he was the next Hendrix but maybe that billing hurt him down the road who knows. He's a phenom.
i did a track "peace at last" a customer told me sounded like robin trower, had forgotten about his greatness from my youth, he was my favorite high times headphone sound i can remember.
The singer here has great vocal tone and power, hes really "kicking"! The bass player is solid as rock with great touch and timing. The drummer is great mixture of precision soul and balls.. And Robin Trower is legend with a beautiful no mathematical soulful approach to the guitar. Some roll a fucken joint!
That's Davey Pattison on vocals. And like me, he's been around a long time... just not with the right bands! ;) Perfect voice for Robin Trower music, I think! Peace.
for me, I think a big part of Jimi Hendrix was the magic of Mitch Mitchell on drums. A lot of people never realized the harmonious relationship the drums and the guitar had on most Jimi records. The drums really make the guitar shine and vice versa. There are many guitarist like Trower who are really talented but usually they get the most basic drumming equivalent to a simple backing track. That really takes aways from the magic of the guys guitar.
I can't understand the comments about the vocalist-- most bands would kill for a vocalist as mature, tasteful and understated, all with plenty of passion. First rate all the way around. Ultimate soul rock.
You want to hear more of him? His name is Davey Pattison and he was with Ronnie Montrose in Gamma for many, many years. Check out their catalog of music if you like him. Especially recommend Voyager!
Nothing less than a "HIGHLY QUALIFIED" master of the fender strat!!!!!!!Even Hendrix is looking down with a huge smile!!!!!!!!!!AwesomwAwesomeAwesomeAwesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First heard this when I was in H.S. in my first car in the fall of '73 on KSAN FM In the San Francisco area when FM radio was really starting to take off. I have 9 or 10 of his albums since then. Great sound. Great memories!!
That was a Blow to my heart! I'm 66 been following Robin since he played in Tampa I think it was 72 or 74 but the weed and "windowpane" get in the way of dates...LOL
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE! FUCK THE REST, ROBIN IS THE BEST! I HAD HIS ALBUM MORE THAN 30 YEARS AGO, BUT HE NEVER SOUNDED BETTER, WAAAO!!! HE IS LIKE THE FINEST AND SWEETEST OF WINES...HE GOT BETTER!!! LONG LIVE ROBIN!
Phenomenal! Stupendous! A Primal Scream, Catharsis, Transformational! Transcendent! THANK YOU ROBIN FOR ALL THE DECADES OF MUSICALLY INSPIRED HUMANITY REACHING FOR CIVILIZATION'S HIGHEST ASPIRATIONS, BEING REAL BY SPEAKING THROUGH THE BLUES OF THE FRAGILITY OF LIFE & ITS PRECIOUSNESS IN OUR FAILURES & SUCCESS.
Mary sweet mother of pearl it sounds better today than twice removed from yesterday. And my parents used to razz me "what are they going to do when they get old?" Daddy is long gone and mudda don't even want to hear it anymore. Hahaha
What a master at his craft, my first Trower was 1976, I thought I discovered him.I did for bunch I ran with. The whole world needs to have to hear Bridge of Sighs. What a original title, infamous. Bless them all.
Robin is the only other guitarist I have seen that I would call the Master of the peddle's and accessories, most of which was invented and circumvented by the Master in the truest sense of any other person to have ever strapped a strat on. I feel it would sully the comment to have to mention his name!
Jim Dewar from Glasgow, Sotland. Davey Pattinson from Glasgow, Scotland. Two great vocalists, in my humble opinion. If you've grown up listening to Jim singing with Robin you might feel he doesnt' fit.
I have spoken to Davey on the subject James Dewar was a legend but I think Davey made his own impression on the songs strangely Davey is a bass player always wondered why he did not play bass with a Gamma or Robin although he played some guitar with Gamma if I remember correctly
I think both of them picked the songs up and ran with them on their own terms. Both are fantastic singers and they both give the songs a distinct stamp and both were a great match for Robins guitar sound.

RIP James and Reg

The Man...The Legend! Always my favorite musician ❤ Trower does and always puts on a killer show!
And that kids is how it's done.
Damn right.
indeed
Absofuckinglutely!!!!!
Yes it most certainly is.
Trower can show most top guitarists today how to get music out of a guitar.
I met Robin backstage in 1987, he is humble, decent, a real gentleman! When I complimented his awesome mastery of the guitar, his reply was, "I'm not really THAT good".
Robin, yes you are! NOBODY plays like you. I doubt there will ever be another like you.
I've seen him talking some on RUclips and you can tell he's a humble gentleman. God bless him for that. We need more people like him in this sad ole world.
I've been a fan since 1977.Imagine if he could play with Jimi ,Joanne Shaw Taylor and Jimmy Page.
Super humble
dude captured the spirit of jimi and changed the world for me........

Yup...! Prolly drove the peeps that lived above me nutz when cranked some Robin Trower in my apt . . .
Robin Trower is the most underrated guitarist of my time. I saw the original band in1984 at a club in Detroit and many times since. His style is one of a kind. Never to be duplicated. The feeling from his music is freedom!! Bless you Robin Trower.
+Sean O'Connor You are sooo right.
jethrodassam I told you so, no body can do it like that he is incredibly gifted. We
are all better people. Because he shares his gift of music with us.
Sean O'Connor I have seen him several times. The first time was in 1976 when he opened for Jethro Tull in Shea Stadium.
+Sean O'Connor I'm aware of the musician Robin Trower. However never realized his expertise, and know doubt an underrated guitarist. Omg !!
You should have seen him back in the good old days. Man could he rip
I met Robin at a bar I used to frequent. He played and he let me play his start to show him I knew his songs then I played Day of the eagle for him. Best day of my life....
Awesome!
That would be so freaking awesome !! To meet him and ...get to play his strat ?!?!?! 🎸🎶🎶😎 Too Rollin stoned !!
One of the most underated guitarists ever and the singer really compliments Robin's tone.
David Ramalho A great
act that I believe everyone should see
Who is the singer?
Also Joe Bonamassa said that's Trower is underrated musican...
By who?
@@yeskojunior3062 Joe wishes he had Robin's tone
Robin Trower has a guitar 🎸 sound all his own. Nobody matches up to his music 🎶 🎵. He really does feel the music. I had a lot of his albums back in the 80's. I'm 64 now and still love ❤ 😍 💖 his 🎶 🎵 music!
Loved him back in the 70's and still Loving him today. One of the GREAT GUITAR GOD'S!!!
Been listening to him since Procol Harum.
Tom Scott Me too. Fantastic!
I love you Mr. Robin trower
Seattle, 1977 was the best concert I've ever forgotten, heh
One of the most mind mesmerizing guitarist you will ever see live he's just so awesome
This man is not only a guitarist...He is THE GUITARIST
Been listening 57 yrs now
Saw Trower back in the early 80's when i lived in New York friggin smokin band Buddy Guy warmed up for him man what great night i'll never foget.

Freakin dirty guitar! I saw him a few years back and he blew me away, again! Saw him in 1986 and he hasn't changed!
Robin is embedded in my teenage memories, some of which.., I cant actually remember, because I was *rolling* _too_ *stoned* - lol. It is fantastic to watch this and see him still jammin'.
cant remember.....haha i remember,,eerrr i cant remember
316SILENTDEATH Those were the days... I think...
Daze days - lol.
A Florida Son
Yep, I SO understand ...
heavy guitar mixed with blues the good old days!!
I find myself periodically coming back to this video and I am amazed at how every note counts with such soul and passion. And that tone!
Master of tone. What he pulls out of a Strat is insane.
I saw Robin in 1975. Several years I took my son to see him at Bogarts. It was a special moment for me.
Keith Kacner I saw Robin in 75 or 76. He was the opening act, middle act was King Crimson and the headliner was Ten Years After. Still get goosebumps, just thinking about it.
@@evreet2000 holy mother of god...that was a murderers row of guitar slingin'!
the takers get the honey, the givers, sing the blues...
My first taste of Robin was 1969. Doesn't get any better.
Holy hell, this guy is such a great guitar player! I've been listening in awe for nearly 50 years now, and he never gets old.
Always loved the sounds he got out of the Strat.....
J Mac the Strat didn't know it could sound like this until Trower oozed through it.
Lucky enough to have seen him play live 5 times. Lucky enough to have met him. one of the truly great players.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE THE OLDER ROCKERS THIS WAS MY FIRST 8 TRACK TAPE I GOT FOR MY BIRTHDAY WHEN I WAS A CHILD XX
This song has the greatest riff of the 1970's....no competition. Trower is vastly underrated.
A guitar god... so much from the soul. One can truly feel the music.
to rolling stone comfortably num best solo's I have ever heard
Got to see him on my 50th bday in Houston house of blues. WOW!
I was a puppy when this came out and it still ROCKS!!!!
WOW WOW I SAY AGAIN WOW so much feeling!!!!!!

I agree much like Rory Gallagher and Roy Buchanan they are the two whom in my opinion are so very underrated in guitar player circles
Keep in mind TROWER started way before Hendrix ever got out of the military.
Mr, Robin Trower
you Rock . u are part of these legend
Saw Robin in the 70"s in Corpus Christi TX one great show!!!
Robin and his Wahwah - awsome.
Forgot to say, Robin inspires me to think outside the box when I play.
Ahh one of the Greats still bringin the house down...saw him at the Coronet Hotel...a tiny little Bar in Kitchener Ontario....he shook my hand and gave me his pick "Herco" was the brand and thick as a brick !!
I saw him open for Ten Years After in the mid '70s. It was great.
Trower at the swing auditorium in San Bernardino 1976 i was 17 years old.never forget that night.my girl at the time was the finest in the whole I.E
I saw him at Newton on April 14, 2016. Greta show!
Definately worth a listen for anyone who enjoys perfect, meticulous guitar playing.....Robin is definately right up there with the greatest.....AND....he's STILL ALIVE!!!! THANK GOD!
Great voice. Fantastic. Blew my doors off.
A very Happy 77th Birthday Robin Leonard Trower 9 March 1945.. Born in Catford, London...
A London boy with a thirst for electric blues... Many, many more Robin Leonard. Cheers Mate!!
How could 40, I hate to use the word people, not like this..? The Master of the Strat..that what Robin is..
+gtflyer Because those 40-some dipshits that dislike this man's music, are proud of having no taste whatsoever in music. Lol
+gtflyer I Have no effin' Idea...I guess that's the same 40+ Who paid for a Kanye West song....
Between 2 and 3% of folks hate absolutely everything. Just plain bad taste in music is the only explanation.
Wow. I like Robin too. He is great, but so was Hendrix, who is impossible to overrate. No need to diminish Hendrix, or for that matter, the black people who like Hendrix to make Trower great. Trower's work and longevity are testimony enough.
The truth of the matter is that about 2-3% of the audience has no musical taste. They hate everything, black or white.
gtflyer ,
a living tonal legend! I'll take Robin over any modern guitarist. they play with the intensity of an electric typewriter. way to keep the dream alive!
Saw Robin play many times. Always a treat.
I saw him when I was 16 totally blew me away that was in 1976 I was 16 years old
I saw him in 78 the Swing in San Bernardino
If I listen too long I'm afraid I'll have a flashback!
69ragster you say that like it's a bad thing 😁 I think I got cheated out of mine I've been waiting for them 😜
69ragster why wait let's get together and administer some shrooms, take control of our destiny,and check out the cosmos from the inside,I can get you there. Or were you just foolin. Peace & Sounds. Love Whiplash Watson.
I've been wanting flashbacks SO bad.Lets all just drop out tune in AGAIN.PEACE

Saw him twice.
Awesome
Seen em on that tour awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!
The singer here has great vocal tone and power, hes really "kicking"! The bass player is solid as rock with great touch and timing. The drummer is great mixture of precision soul and balls.. And Robin Trower is legend with a beautiful no mathematical soulful approach to the guitar. Some roll a fucken joint!
Jimmy alright. But robin is still rocking his ass off, so,yo
+Asim Can Gunduz ....Well said!
Awesome John do you know the singers name? I can’t find it
Thx
That's Davey Pattison on vocals. And like me, he's been around a long time... just not with the right bands! ;)
Perfect voice for Robin Trower music, I think! Peace.
Not as good as James Dewar RIP!
Damn he's still got it,this fucking rips,I've been listening to Robin since the early 70's and he still BLOWS away any guitarist that's around today.
I saw a robin at the park west in Chicago... 90 and 91.. just incredible shows thanks Robin for some great stuff
Now this is real rock and roll. Thank you.
Damn, we need Robin at The Plaza Theater in Glasgow, KY for just one night!!!
If you feel nothing when listening to this...you must be dead!
A definite inspiration to me the felonious one fideli Rock til you drop
John Hampton I'm down for playing any where bluesy rock /comedian 5134916404
Damn, that tone is just killer! Strat master at work.
Mr,Trower u are part of all legend, no Question ask
Love the drumming on this tune ... really gets me going!
is it lee kirslake

for me, I think a big part of Jimi Hendrix was the magic of Mitch Mitchell on drums. A lot of people never realized the harmonious relationship the drums and the guitar had on most Jimi records. The drums really make the guitar shine and vice versa. There are many guitarist like Trower who are really talented but usually they get the most basic drumming equivalent to a simple backing track. That really takes aways from the magic of the guys guitar.
among the top guitarists of our generation.
need to watch this video every day to feel better.
Love the new singer and drummer makes want
to be them. Rock On
Robins is Still Amazing the band is in the pocket and singer is spot on.
I can't understand the comments about the vocalist-- most bands would kill for a vocalist as mature, tasteful and understated, all with plenty of passion. First rate all the way around. Ultimate soul rock.
yes sir
Jay FitzGerald I love this singer I don't know who could possible say otherwise
You want to hear more of him? His name is Davey Pattison and he was with Ronnie Montrose in Gamma for many, many years. Check out their catalog of music if you like him. Especially recommend Voyager!
How awesome would it be to sing with Montrose and Trower.
I've seen Davey twice once with Trower and once with Montrose. Great shows
Nothing less than a "HIGHLY QUALIFIED" master of the fender strat!!!!!!!Even Hendrix is looking down with a huge smile!!!!!!!!!!AwesomwAwesomeAwesomeAwesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!
First heard this when I was in H.S. in my first car in the fall of '73 on KSAN FM In the San Francisco area when FM radio was really starting to take off. I have 9 or 10 of his albums since then. Great sound. Great memories!!
He makes love to that guitar!
He sure does!!!!!
Glen McBride.
Its obvious hes enjoying himself . Nothing he would rather be doing period.
I think Robin is trying to convey via the medium of music, that his best days may be behind him, but he is still fucking miles ahead of anyone else.
He's playing & writing better than ever now!
incredible tone! a master
Saw him in 1976ish....in Milwaukee.....without a doubt one of the best...in company with Clapton, SRV....
Sad about Dewar. Fantastic voice :-/ The Clock ticks on us all... damn thing. He left quite a legacy of great vocals and drums.
"Like sands through the hour glass, so go the days of our lives"
That was a Blow to my heart! I'm 66 been following Robin since he played in Tampa I think it was 72 or 74 but the weed and "windowpane" get in the way of dates...LOL
DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM! WHAT AN INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCE! FUCK THE REST, ROBIN IS THE BEST! I HAD HIS ALBUM MORE THAN 30 YEARS AGO, BUT HE NEVER SOUNDED BETTER, WAAAO!!! HE IS LIKE THE FINEST AND SWEETEST OF WINES...HE GOT BETTER!!! LONG LIVE ROBIN!
one of the most underated guitar players!!!!?!! of all time Just sit back and watch and here it all!!!
Robin Trower Rocks!
he plays in the most unlikely keys. amazing!!!
frightens cfgf
The greatest Stratocaster player since Jimi Hendrix.
Phenomenal! Stupendous! A Primal Scream, Catharsis, Transformational! Transcendent! THANK YOU ROBIN FOR ALL THE DECADES OF MUSICALLY INSPIRED HUMANITY REACHING FOR CIVILIZATION'S HIGHEST ASPIRATIONS, BEING REAL BY SPEAKING THROUGH THE BLUES OF THE FRAGILITY OF LIFE & ITS PRECIOUSNESS IN OUR FAILURES & SUCCESS.
Heard this first on radio Luxembourg , the sound drifting as it did then, never tire of listening. Classic.
wow...awesome stuff...old guys still rock
Mary sweet mother of pearl it sounds better today than twice removed from yesterday. And my parents used to razz me "what are they going to do when they get old?" Daddy is long gone and mudda don't even want to hear it anymore. Hahaha
What a master at his craft, my first Trower was 1976, I thought I discovered him.I did for bunch I ran with. The whole world needs to have to hear Bridge of Sighs. What a original title, infamous. Bless them all.
This moment in rock history has been brought to you by Ensure and Ensure light.. ENSURE ROCKS AMERICA!!
goddamn it is beautiful to see the artist in his bliss......holy shit.....
Pete Thompson solid on drums.
Robin gets better with age ! Why is he Not in the Rock and Roll Hall ?
hall is a joke-commercial sham-
gumbyonacid ya it is and i live in cleveland , and ill never go there
That hall is too small for Robin.
Always awesome!!
The best in 2016 71 years old god bless the band.
Got to see him in 77...Front Row Ticket...scalped me for $10! ($7.50)Wishbone Ash was the opener...remember them?
Robin is the only other guitarist I have seen that I would call the Master of the peddle's and accessories, most of which was invented and circumvented by the Master in the truest sense of any other person to have ever strapped a strat on. I feel it would sully the comment to have to mention his name!
indeed
He works the hell out of the wah-wah pedal, especially on this song.
Jimi Hendrix lives....
Yes, Robin, the Master, and of course, the great Terry Kath !!!
Who can argue with this beauty .
Love Trower, have since the first time I heard him. thanks for sharing!
Jim Dewar from Glasgow, Sotland.
Davey Pattinson from Glasgow, Scotland.
Two great vocalists, in my humble opinion.
If you've grown up listening to Jim singing with Robin you might feel he doesnt' fit.
I have spoken to Davey on the subject James Dewar was a legend but I think Davey made his own impression on the songs strangely Davey is a bass player always wondered why he did not play bass with a Gamma or Robin although he played some guitar with Gamma if I remember correctly
I think both of them picked the songs up and ran with them on their own terms. Both are fantastic singers and they both give the songs a distinct stamp and both were a great match for Robins guitar sound.
I love Davey. He's filled James' shoes nicely.
I guess this is Davey? I think he sounds awesome. :)
