Robin Trower (born March 9, 1945 in Catford, England) is a british blues rock guitarist who achieved success with Procol Harum during the 1960’s, and then again as the leader of his own power trio.
Perhaps Trower’s most famous album is Bridge Of Sighs (1974). This album, along with his first (Twice Removed From Yesterday) and third (For Earth Below) solo albums, was produced by his former Procol Harum band mate, organist Matthew Fisher.
Those who favor electric guitarists who can play live what they record in the studio will be very impressed with the “Robin Trower Live” album - especially the cut “Daydream”. While often compared to Jimi Hendrix, Robin Trower never received the publicity nor same volume of fans.

Excellent! Glad to see he's not only still around, but touring, too. I have Trower on vinyl and again on CD. I acquired my taste for his music from listening to my older brother's collection. Mr. Peabody, set the WABAC machine to 1973....

Looking for some other bands that have that spaced out guitar style on Trower's slower songs. There a couple of Rush songs with that, like By-Tor and La Villa Strangiato. I can't get enough of it, shout me if you can think of anything.

Vinyl collection up to nine now. Spinning LIVE! at the moment. Such a cool guitarist, excellent sound and feel. I hope I have a chance to see him live some day.

saw/heard Trower for the 7th time in my life a few days ago in Baltimore. He has not lost one bit of talent and maybe is even more masterful now.

Mr Trower, you're amazing. But please, chose carefully those who are responsible for your album cover art. They truly suck :D

i'm guessing that the low tally of listeners is due to the fact that most of the people who know who Trower is have the vinyl or even cds and listen to him the 'old-fashioned' way LOL....

this guy is a brilliant guitarist, one of the best. How is he so underrated? Watching him play live is great. His face contorts with every strum of his guitar, he really gets into his playing
