The new power trio set the tone for Robin\u2019s 1973 debut solo LP \u201cTwice Removed from Yesterday,\u201d but it was the follow up, 1974\u2019s \u201cBridge of Sighs\u201d that would catapult Trower into international guitar hero status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBridge of Sighs\u201d is a titanic sounding rock album featuring some truly mesmerizing guitar from Trower. The title track and gems such as \u201cDay of the Eagle,\u201d \u201cIn this Place,\u201d \u201cLittle Bit of Sympathy,\u201d and the exquisite \u201cLady Love\u201d are outstanding numbers with Trower\u2019s guitar playing right up there with the most celebrated guitar Gods of the era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7382\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13-640x427.jpg 640w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/stlouisdad.com\/s\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/unnamed-13-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Toto\u2019s Steve Lukather observes \u201cIn 1974, I got the album \u2018Bridge of Sighs\u2019 and it blew my mind. I was devouring&nbsp;everything guitar based as I was an up-and coming player, and the sound&nbsp;of Robin\u2019s&nbsp;guitar hit my soul. The tone-touch and feel was so incredible.\u201d The 50<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;Anniversary version (remixed and mastered) will be released next month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the five decades that followed this million selling album, Robin Trower\u2019s career has been an act of quiet rebellion. Rewind the reels of the British guitarist\u2019s backstory and you\u2019ll find an artist who has always rolled the dice rather than take the path of least resistance. A literal lifetime since he first stepped onto the British blues circuit as a cub gunslinger, that fabled Trower power shows no sign of burning out. In fact, the iconic guitarist\u2019s late-period acceleration is something to behold, sweeping up new fans alongside, hardcore supporters who have followed his every move. During this time, he\u2019s flowed from his own projects to collaborations with everyone from Jack Bruce to Brian Ferry to Maxi Priest releasing well over 30 albums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fast-forward to 2023 and Trower\u2019s new studio album, \u201cJoyful Sky,\u201d with New York blues singer Sari Schorr wonderfully demonstrates his latest flash of artistic instinct.\u00a0Always receptive to singers who can elevate his emotive guitar touch, Trower heard a quality in the smoky powerful voice of the acclaimed Schorr that made him want to tear down and rebuild his songcraft around her. \u201cJoyful Sky\u201d reaffirms the qualities of a truly great guitar player.
