Robin Trower has been heralded as one of the most influential Guitar players to come out of the British Blues Rock scene. Though other names may come to mind, none have the "signature sound and style" of the man who was tagged by the press with the nickname of "The White Hendrix" back in the 70's. Robin was in the audience during a performance by Jimi Hendrix those many years back, and he readily admits that the Experience changed his approach to the guitar. It is obvious to anyone who ever listened to Robin's music that he has taken the ethereal sound that Jimi first introduced to the world, and created his own unique way of expressing himself through the guitar. The result is a career of considerable merit.
Robin is known for his incredible talent as a guitar player and his inspirational style of soloing, coaxing sounds from his Strat that seem to emanate from beyond this world. To be among those who have experienced Robin performing live is to be forever changed by this masterful Artist as he takes you along with him on one musical odyssey after another.
The NEW CD release from Robin Trower, "Another Days Blues", continues the legacy and is a stellar addition to his already impressive catalogue. Go to RobinTrower.com to purchase this great CD. Around the time of the release of one of his most critically acclaimed albums, "Bridge Of Sighs", and for many years following, Robin was touring arenas around the world! Often described as a "... shy and refined gentleman..." off-stage, Robin's presence on-stage is remarkably powerful. Not given to "stage theatrics", his virtuoso ability to impart emotions through song lyrics and highly charged guitar playing is hypnotic. Robin's body and facial expressions display clearly where his heart and soul are during the performance - deeply intertwined with his instrument of choice, the Fender Stratocaster (Registered Tradename/Trademark of Fender). His chording and soloing style have mesmerized fans and confounded guitar players for years, and will continue to be a source of inspiration for anyone who wants to play the guitar.
While Robin plays his signature Strat with passionate abandon, Davey Pattison, of GAMMA fame, adds his considerable Vocal talents to the mix, bringing the songs to life and interpreting the lyrics better than anyone since Jimmy Dewar. Davey has been part of many of Robin's albums and performances since the passing of James Dewar, who will be forever missed. Robin and Davey, along with Dave Bronze on Bass and Pete Thompson on Drums, comprise a band of true power among the Blues/Rock Elite. This current line-up has contributed to more than a few of Robin's BEST Albums to date, including Passion, Take What You Need, Go My Way, Living Out Of Time and more! And as if that were not enough, Robin has surprisingly FINE vocal talents himself, which he favors the audience with on two of the songs from this newest album, ANOTHER DAYS BLUES. What we have here is a band of highly talented musicians surrounding a musical legend who has been instrumental in creating and perpetuating a musical genre that has touched many lives. Robin Trower, the performer and musical Artist, has made each of his recorded works an incredibly fulfilling and satisfying experience!
Born March 9, 1945, Robin has played guitar professionally since his teen years. During the early stages of his career, he was part of another famous supergroup, "Procol Harum". Leaving "PH" after the release of their 5th Album, "Broken Barricades", Robin struck out on his own with James Dewar (formerly of Stone The Crows) on Bass & Vocals and Reg Isadore on Drums. The release of his debut Album in 1973, Twice Removed From Yesterday on Chrysalis Records, heralded the beginning of a career that has spanned four decades and continues vibrantly to this day.
The "Robin Trower Band" lineup changed drummers between the 1st and 2nd albums. For "Bridge Of Sighs", the second release and the one that shot Robin's career into the stratosphere, Reg Isadore was replaced by ex Sly & The Family Stone drummer Bill Lordan, who himself once played with Jimi Hendrix! This line-up remained basically unchanged through 6 more albums, with the addition of Rustee Allen on Bass (also from Sly Stone's band) for "In City Dreams", "Caravan To Midnight" and "Victims Of The Fury", Robin's 6th, 7th and 8th Albums respectively.
All total, Robin has released more than 23 albums during his career, and shows no signs of slowing down. This latest addition to his catalogue, "Another Days Blues" on V-12 Records, is a MUST HAVE for any fan of great guitar based Blues and Rock, and a "no brainer addition" for every Trower fan!

The DVD LIVING OUT OF TIME: LIVE! is a MUST HAVE for any true fan of Robin Trower, and for anyone in love with powerfully written and performed Blues Rock from this inspired guitar virtuoso! Love the band line-up and am SOO glad to have been able to see you guys in concert promoting both the LOOT album (as it\'s been nick-named) as well as your latest CD \'ANOTHER DAYS BLUES\'! Robin, your voice has NEVER sounded better than on \'This Blue Love\' - I still get the \"Chill Factor\" on every play! Davey Pattison, your vocals are incomparable and on par with the late great James Dewar! Dave Bronze, your bass is a magic element of motion that propels the rhythm section onto the next level and Pete Thompson, your drumming is unequaled in my book by anyone other than Neil Peart and Bill Lordan! Thanks for giving us some of the BEST music available today! We continue to buy everything you release and, as all TRUE fans should, we play it for our friends, family, kids and grandkids in the hope your fanbase will continue to grow and bring you back to the States often!
