Yea, I remember people not knowing back then that Robin was not the singer. My cousin got downright irritated with me when I suggested it. We were looking at the photos on the "Robin Trower Live" album. He was like "what do you think he's doing right there" pointing at his mouth. I said "making a funny face", which is what Robin did often. I said "where's the microphone? and then pointed to a picture of Dewer singing in to a mic on the back. "Well he doesn't sing on all of them, then". I said "I only here one voice, I also here at the end of one of the songs 'Thank you, James Dewer vocals. I'm the musician here, BTW I know these things. Boy he was pissed at the whole idea and just wouldn't accept it.

Norm Vance Agreed ,_ I would like to add that I see them as completely different animals and I don't feel it does tribute to this great band to compare them to another band just because they use strats , marshalls and electric blues. The Trower band is the magical combination of the 3 special musicians that happens so rarely, much like Cream . Love Jimi, especially his rhythm guitar comping style . Jimi was a great and colorful unique character and an innovator though also a guitarist faking his way through the vocals and his album cuts could be inconsistent and spotty . I much prefer the song writing , lyrics singing and albums of Trower. Bridge of Sighs is an album masterpiece , much like Sgt. Pepper for the Beatles. The band should have stayed with that producer and recording studio as they really know how to work with Trowers kind of band.

+Norm Vance Arguably, he was. Personally, and with all due respect to Jimi, I find SRV more palatable. I lived in Austin back in the early 80's before SRV was discovered... he was a local. My ex and I used to go see him just light it up. You could see him two nights in a row and he wouldn't play the same set and if he played the same song two nights in a row, he played it differently. SRV ruined live music for me. With one or two exceptions, every musician I've seen live since has let me down. SRV was the best I've ever seen and I've seen a lot.

Sweet, simple and honest. Bare to the bone - where Soul was reborn and freed to take flight to skies filled with sparkling stars.... Thank you, Robin Trower, for bringing so many Souls through to raw, pure Joy and ecstasy.

the 70s was the GREATEST decade for rock ever in the history of the world....I saw Trower twice in the late 70s, and it was mindblowing each time.....I turned my youngest son on to him at age 12, and now that he is almost 20 he tells me that Trower is STILL one of his major influences in his own guitar career....

Since the U.S. election I have been finding solace on KZfaq with favorite musicians like Robin Trower and others from my 1969-70's concert-going era. Winterland and Fillmore West, mainly. Even the many fine comments are a relief to see instead of the things being said elsewhere online about politics.

I have been lucky enough to see Trower 4 times in Minneapolis. Every show was mesmerizing. I literally stood 4 feet away on 2 of the shows (at the Cabooze) and just watched him play. It was incredible to see how far he could actually bend the strings into the sound he wanted. One of the more gifted guitarists ever.!!!

I've had the Bridge of Sighs vinyl for umpteen years. About 3 years ago I "actually" listened to it again. I found an appreciation that I didn't have prior. It's one of my favs now and, to me, is a timeless rock album. Wish the kids today could/would appreciate it as it deserves. As good a trio as ever.....Police, ZZ, Rush, you name it!

AS I AM WRITING THE "COMMENT", it is May 23rd of 2015; and on this day 40 years ago, I attended a concert in Birmingham, Alabama , which featured as its headliner The Robin Trower Band, with opening act Golden Earring. Earlier that Spring, Trower had released his "For Earth Below" album; and my fondness for the radio-"hit" entitled "Shame the Devil" from that album had persuaded me to see the band in concert. I came to this posting this evening to relive that concert. ~ "Thanks" to KZfaq, and "Rock on TV" !

@charliebe28 I saw Robin and Golden Earring on the same tour, in San Diego. The difference between your show and mine was the headline act: Poco. I mean really? WTF! How lame was that? Most of the audience left before their set was halfway through. Biggest lineup faux paux ever! And I've seen a great many concerts. At any rate, Robin, James, and Bill stole the show. Bill was from San Diego.

'Robin Trower Live' blew my mind. I listened to it for months endlessly. Went to sleep to it every night. I was naive when I first picked up the album. I assumed that Robin Trower was the guitar player and the singer. I would later find out that the singer was James Dewar (the bass player), easily one of the greatest rock/blues singers of all time,.... of all time. I mean no disrespect to Lawrence but the band was Trower and Dewar. Together they wrote and performed some of the greatest music ever performed.

James Dewar, an amazing vocal talent. He made The Robin Trower Band in my eyes (or ears). The guitar was amazing back in the 70's (don't get me wrong here), but those vocals were a step beyond the usual fare of the day, rich, soulful, and powerful. They worked well together.

I was 17 years old the first time I ever saw Robin Trower one of the greatest concerts ever seen such a talented fantastic spirited guitar virtuoso when I say that it's because I have seen every musician and band that anyone could name I was 12 years old when I started going to concerts it became a part of my life I've seen everybody with a few slight exceptions and that concert just blew me away he doesn't get the credit that he deserves he's a guitar god a wizard a genius what else can I say we all take it easy

I was there! Loudest concert of my life. My ears are still ringing. Winterland was a converted skate rink with a low ceiling that seemed to compress the sound like an audio pressure cooker. When Jimi left the scene, Robin took up the mantle and did his memory right in an almost selfless ego free way. It was good to see.
