What does /mu/ think about Robin Trower?

Great writer.

Also James Dewar was the best blues-rock singer that Britain's produced after Rodgers and Coverdale.

For Earth Below [Chrysalis, 1975]

Is he experienced? He's a retread, and the best thing I can say for him is that he makes me remember the verve, humor, and fluidity of the original. C-

Caravan to Midnight [Chrysalis, 1978]

Over the years somewhat disappointing sales have convinced Trower that maybe all the people who found themselves stultified by his Hendrix clonings were onto something. On this album, therefore, he's made a point of mixing the vocals way up, so that the Paul Rodgers clonings of lead vocalist/second banana James Dewar can actually be discerned by the casual listener. Yug. C

Everything Rocks and Nothing Ever Dies [1990s]

Second rate Hendrix clone, still better than Lenny Kravitz.

>white people blues

I listened to FEB. Boring as shit. There's almost no feel to his playing at all or Dewar's vocals. Essentially elevator music.

The man knows his way around a fret board.

Of the two albums he reviewed, Caravan is the better one in terms of the guitar playing and vocals imo.
