Robin Trower Thread. No "Bridge of Sighs" Edition

Brand new Album with Maxi Priest and Livingston Brown.
It's as if a 1978 soul band hopped into a time machine and landed in a 21st century studio.

Gonna play another one because I'm kinda obsessed with this album

Robin at the height of his murky stoner-jam powers. IMHO this should be the song people remember from this album

A project with Jack Bruce and his longtime vocalist Bill Lordan - BLT

This is my favorite cut from that album.

A couple months ago I went on a Robin Trower bender and "Twice Removed From Yesterday" and "Victims Of The Fury" were heavily represented, so tis time I tried to highlight some of the other tracks from his long career.
