Typically solid Trower effort.
I have read where Robin never got the acclaim and recognition he deserves because he was not a good looking guy like Beck, Clapton, Page etal. There may be a grain of truth to that because we have always felt he was right up there in this elite startosphere.
I think he's actually my favorite. For example, I'll put Twice Removed From Yesterday and Bridge both right up there with anything his contemporaries ever did.
The female singer fits in well here too. Have already made a note to get this CD as soon as possible so I can work it out in my Harmon Kardon in the car.
I’m with you guys about how some never hit interstellar overdrive.
You might think looks. I’d have to agree that’s part of it.
But imho it’s that elusive top 40 number one hit or hits
that really makes them a kind of God. That kind of catchy,
snappy song that connects with the masses at that time in space.
Another one that was kind of passed over imho was Alvin Lee of Ten Years After.
I mean come on, Jim Morrison couldn’t play a lick.
Same with Elvis.
But throw a pic up, everyone knows who they were.
And o yeah……… thx Mark for putting that up.
Great sound from Trower again👏🏻
