Robin Trower
Robin Trower is an English guitarist whose bluesy, psychedelic style and way around the Fender Stratocaster have earned him countless comparisons to Jimi Hendrix and a long, successful career. Trower got his start playing in the R&B group the Paramounts, but it was the influential prog-rock band Procol Harum that launched his career. Joining the band in 1967, Trower performed on five of the band's albums and had a hit with the song "Whiskey Train" before departing in 1971. In 1973, he formed the Robin Trower Band, another power trio with Hendrix-esque influences. They broke the U.S. Top Ten in 1974 with their album Bridge of Sighs and went on to headline arenas throughout the '70s. In more recent years, Trower has teamed up with Roxy Music's Bryan Ferry as well as with Cream's Jack Bruce for a number of notable collaborative records. Listening to any of this guitar legend's work on vinyl is mind-blowing.
