You wanna talk about no credit? The great Jimmy Dewar on bass and vocals will NEVER get the props he deserves as an all time great soul r-n-b voice. It ain't just me right"? Y'all hear me?

James Dewar was the perfect voice for Trower's music!!!

Almost 50 years later, this still blows me away. It never gets old.

No billion dollar light show. No explosions. No freak show makeup. Just three guys making awesome music. Was fortunate enough to see em at a sweat lodge known as the warehouse in New Orleans

If you like rock-n-roll guitars then you have to love Robin Trower. Absolutely a master guitarist.

Man. . James Dewar. . . .what a loss. . . that man had one of the greatest unhearlded voices in Rock. . .

for the lifelong fans with Robin Trower. the second time met him backstage was not in a building!! it was in a 1968 Winnagago Motorhome after his show. no long black limos or private jets! for All us Lifelong Fans who wanted to speak with Trower. he remains a quiet and gentle man. walking in the room to meet him just felt kinda numb. Trower made that go away. kind and gentle man.

JD's voice was perfect for trower's compositions. match made in rock hall of fame.

This is a man that feels every note. That’s why Trower is so good

What an epic time to grow up ; wish I could travel back

Fantastic Psych blues and yes James Dewar fantastic

James Dewar, I consider one of the greatest Rock voices ever!

Jimmy Dewars voice was a gold mine.R.I.P. Jimmy, you are sorely missed.

Robin Trower. The only man on earth that can bend a note around a fencepost and bring it back straight

He was not a Hendrix imitator. He was his own talent. Completely !

I was at this concert. Trower was great!!! Winterland was a cool place to go too. very fond memories. good times!

Wow. Just wow. They just don't make guitarists like they used to. Hendrix was a once in a millennium player and Trower and SRV picked up his torch with uncanny beauty and style....

i totally agree, They are so under appreciated and James Dewar will never get the respect that he deserves. At least those are many who still love this talent

I feel that Robin never really got the credit he deserved for carrying on the Hendrix sound long after Jimi had died.Robin is a great Guitarist!.

I'm juss sayin: Dewar and Trower both, somehow, make it look easy. It's freekin' crazy how good these dudes are and yet it looks effortless. Nutz !! Bassman is floating on the fretboard at lightning speed and laying down some priceless vocals while RT is slow-shredding with his Marshall turned up to 11 !!! We all know Jimi is nodding with approval as the vibes reach out to him. Bless you, Robin.

James Dewar on vocals (while playing bass!): Exquisite !!

James Dewar , kept it real for Robin Trower , laying down great bass , and singing tremendously, R.I.P. , My Brother!

RIP, James Dewar. You are still missed.

Good lord...........if the kids today could only see THIS rock music. Long live Robin Trower!

Glad to see all these positive comments lady love is possibly my favorite song ever!

James Dewar : The warmest voice of Rock and Roll

Met the man backstage at a small venue in 1985. I will always cherish that memory of a very humble man with an electric handshake who gave me the guitar pick from his pocket.

77 years _'young'!_ Keep on rockin! Thanks for all the great music you've given us Robin.

Robin Trower's sound sets my Soul FREE! .....I'm floating in a most peculiar way!

Not only was Paisley's finest, Jimmy Dewar, one of the greatest voices in rock, he was also one of the most effortless. An absolute natural...

...when great music was still being made. Miss those days...

I was a teenager in the 70s.We were so blessed with music Truly amazing

Saw them in 75, in medford ore. We were in the front, blew so much pot smoke at robin he was in a cloud.

Each masterful! Amazing 3 piece! Thanks James, Robin and Bill for the incredible music. 52 years later and I'm still listening to it.

Thank you ever so much... From the Days of wine and roses when the smoke was smooth.. in the sound was loud and proud.. when The bridge of sighs ... And for earth below... Quaked your ears,.. Against those Days of wine and roses when the smoke is smooth... And you found your musical groove... Listening to this creation through for altec Lansing model 1... Horn loaded stage stacks... Living in a small Warehouse made of concrete and carpet.. waiting for the next kilo of Hawaiian weed in large chunks of red Lebanese hashish.. two arrived by courier...

Seen Dewar singing,and playing bass at the same time.The man is incredible!!!

This is freakin priceless!!!! I learned guitar playing Robin Trower songs 45 years ago. This was one of the first songs I learned. I am so blown away now!!!!.

Saw Robin and the band in Germany around 1973 with the release of Twice Removed From Yesterday. He was supporting Alvin Lee & Ten Years After on the Rock'n'Roll Music to the World tour. What an amazing night that was. Never heard of Robin till then. Went out and bought that album for sure. Never forget that night. Totally amazing.

Saw Trower do Bridge of Sighs at the Auditorium Theater in Chicago about two weeks after this show. The Auditorium had studio-quality acoustics. James Dewar, what a voice, RIP. They were the warm-up for King Crimson (Robert Fripp took lessons from Trower, literally) with Bill Bruford drumming center stage. Unforgettable night. This video is a time machine.

i appreciated the comments on here...glad to see others recognize Trower as the most soulful blues/rock guitarist ever. No one can riff like Trower

As a student of the instrument for nearly 40 years and an instructor of it for over 20, I do believe this concert video is required viewing for anyone attempting to understand and/or assimilate rock & blues guitar as it has evolved since 1940.

Saw him about 2 years ago at small club in Tampa. I was so close I was resting my elbow on the stage. I stood mesmerized for over an hour.

Jimmy Dewar is one of the most underrated singer ever.

Back in the 80’s I left my cassette of Robin Trower Live in my dad’s van. He became a lifelong fan after that.

damn these were the days , best years of my life , thanks Robin and Jimmy

I can't count all the times that I have seen Trower. I have tickets to see him in April 2022. He is the absolute king of vibrato. All generated with his left hand. I don't even think he has a whammy bar on that strat. Only one show have I seen him use it. Incredible. This was the ultimate lineup. Although Davey Pattison was a great singer to. Amazing music.

Trower's vibrato on his bends was mindblowing.

So fortunate are my ears to have known this great albumn since the 70s.Love so much.Thankyou for your gift.

I was blessed to see him open for Humble Pie one week after this was recorded. He did six encores.

He carried on that driving lead style that Hendrix had figured out so well many years before. It's a sound that once you hear it your hooked.

This band takes my mind down the river of another time-

Wow!! - had I known this film existed before...!!! Such a TREASURE! I was Here. At Winterland. At THIS concert. I feel 17 again. I can't begin to describe all the emotions that come rushing back to me, 40 years later. It makes me sad, though, as this was such a Beautiful time span, and I miss it so. A gorgeous decade free from war, the struggles of the 60's, and the relative meaningless of the 80's and beyond. I'm so grateful to have enjoyed this time, and wish I could live it all over again. 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. Your obvious utter Joy and true humble appreciation of bringing pleasure to every person in the audience through your music is unequaled. I hope to meet you someday.... I would love to hear you play Daydream again. ♥

one of the best loved this man since Bridge of sighs 1974! RIP Jimmy Dewar!

I was at that concert what a gig. There was so much marijuana smoke in the air that I was high without actually smoking any. The crowd was rowdy and the practically knocked the barricade over in the front then a lot of event security guys came up there and righted the barricade. It was sooooo loud that to me, in the front, I could barel;y make out the songs they were playing. I was thinking they sucked and went out of the main auditorium to the foyer where there were bars and was shocked that I could hear it perfectly and it sounded awesome. THAT IS LOUD!

Rock on all old schoolers Old School the best school still God bless you all peace God bless

I was at this show, with the "old" Journey playing just before. Man, were we lucky. I got see Winterland shows from 73-76. So many great memories.

A true Stratocaster master and master of the wah wah pedal. Nobody uses it better. He puts every fiber of his being into his playing and we are the beneficiaries. His bandmates were great too. Dewar was one of the all time great singing bass players.

Oh man, the tone pouring out of his Strat is immense.

My all time favorite guitar player and the soulful voice of the late James Dewar, what a combo!

Robin Trower, the most underrated guitarist ever?

Saw him at winterland in 77 what a badass trio. So F’ing loud

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....

Killer band! Master drummer, Monster bass and singer, and monarch guitarist!

Trower was always such a smooth guitarist! Never rushed...

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 do Loved them in the 70’s all the way til l now and for ever

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.!!!

What an excellent show... Miss James Dewar he was one of the best blues vocalist in the business... sadly missed...

Holy fuck he just blew my face off! Speechless

The voice + the guitar = the dream.

I am 71 rode my 1975 ossa phantom 250cc grew up listen to trower what a group a++

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!

I WAS IN THE AUDIENCE..... PICKED UP A GUITAR THE NEXT DAY.....STILL PLAYING

It is the end of 2018 Robin is on tour as I write this, go see him if possible. An experience you will never forget. I have seen him 4 times this time will make 5 times when he comes to Portland in May 2019. You won't be sorry.

Robin Trower is my favorite rock guitarist.

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" !

Love this, one of the greatest guitar legends and the voice of Jimmy

My boyfriend & I were at this concert in 1975 @ Winterland it's was awesome as you can hear Robin Thrower out did himself. I am so thankful growing up listening to all of these iconic artists of the 70s have made this life GRAND!!!

Daydream has got to be my favorite song of all time.

All three musicians were fantastic, but I have a special fondness for James' voice.

God that solo on Too Rolling Stoned was sick, incredible.!!!

The music of my youth, and I still enjoy it!

Saw Trower 4 times throughout my life, he was my favorite back in the day. Very unique guitarist !!!

I was at this concert- the band sounded great!

Dewar and Trower's chemistry is unbeatable!

No more music like Robin Trower anymore! They ruled then and now!

Simply awesome! First concert was Robin Trower opening for Humble Pie. Trower came out playing Bridge of Sighs with his wah wah peddle. It was quite an experience I won't forget.

I saw this concert-tour in Seattle and it was one of the best shows then and especially now! Thanks for reafirming my memories from a time when things really mattered...

'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.

I seen him at Wings Stadium Bridge of Sighs tour....luv him...wore out all his albums....still have them all....had a nice Marantz stereo I paid a fortune for. Back in the 70s we used the turn-table to learn to play songs...hacked up a lot of albums doing that....pick up the tone arm and play a part over and over until we got the notes right...ha ha When Jimi died it left a big hole in my heart.....Robin helped fill that hole.....thanks Robin....you helped make the 70s a wonderful decade....Rock-on.

I was lucky enough to be at this gig . . . about 25 feet from the stage. Thanks Bill Graham and RIP James Dewar.

MY FAVORITE GUITAR OF ALL TIME❤❤❤!!!!!!!

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, Winterland was awesome. We would sit down with a big bag of weed and start rollin, take a hit and pass it down. Concerts then were so cool. And Robin was one of the best ever :-o

I saw Trower in the 70s ,80s ,90s and now will see him again in April 2016..So unappreciated, so incredibly talented.Bridge of Sighs on my top 3 albums of all time. Can't wait.

It was such a thrill to see this show. I was 16. My first concert. Pablo Cruise and Journey opened the show. I was just in awe. All that sound and Bridge of Sighs was riding the rock charts. Magic!

Wow!!! This was awesome to watch. Thankyou!!! Born in 76 just way to late!!!👍🤣🤣🤣

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.
