Robin Trower

'Live!'

Chrysalis, UK, 1975

CHR 1089

HIS INCREDIBLE and, I believe, only live album, a record that has become a classic in its field and, arguably, Trower's greatest achievement. The reason? Well, its all about that guitar - thick, deep rich sustain, endless vibrato howling solos and gentle melodies. The Hendrix comparison is valid, of course, but I think Trower take the guitar into areas that Hendrix only touched briefly, in particular the heavy blues rock of the opening salvo 'Too Rolling Stoned' and the slightly more melancholic 'Daydream'. This is Trower in full unrestricted flight propped up by two of the greatest, but like the Hendrix Experience, two unheralded heroes in drummer Bill Lordan and bassist/vocalist James Dewer a man who could easily have slipped into a sort of Jack Bruce Cream cameo if it wasn't for his sensational talent.

The material is uniformly GREAT. The recording quality is amazing - thick, dense and crystal clear. Every track forms an essential piece of the sonic tapestry with the wistful ballads sitting meaningfully amidst the rampaging over amped blues. Tracks like 'Rock Me Baby' and 'Little Bit Of Sympathy' pack a hefty hard rock punch set about with care and precision rather than meaningless bluster and volume. , howling lead guitar that takes us on a journey of discovery.  

I would say that this is an essential addition to any early seventies rock collection. If you are a fan of guitar then shame on you for not owning a copy already.

Once again, produced by Beatles engineer and George Martin sidekick Geoff Emerick.
