| | Robin Trower Bridge Of Sighs CD Robin Trower Discography of CDs
 (24 Customer Reviews)
The Expanded Edition of BRIDGE OF SIGHS includes five bonus tracks from a live radio broadcast from the Record Plant, Los Angeles, California in 1974.
The Gold Disc reissue of BRIDGE OF SIGHS includes the single version of "Day Of The Eagle," which did not appear on the original release.
When Robin Trower left Procul Harum in 1971, he opted for a slightly less velvet-draped sound, basing his new songs on bluesy riffs and gritty vocals. This second solo album is arguably his best, and definitely his most popular, going gold and providing charting hits like the intense title ballad and the churning, funky "Too Rolling Stoned." The 2007 reissue contains eight new tracks--classic John Peel live sessions from 1975 that capture Trower's trio at the smoking height.
Out-of-print in the US. Digitally remastered and expanded edition of the British Blues/Psychedelic guitar player's seminal 1974 album featuring five live bonus tracks: 'Lady Love', 'Bridge Of Sighs', 'Too Rolling Stoned', 'Day Of The Eagle' and 'Little Bit Of Sympathy'. Although Trower forged his own style and became an FM radio staple during his heyday in the '70s, his guitar technique was often compared to Jimi Hendrix's unique talents. Constant comparisons to Hendrix may have overshadowed his own abilities, but Trower forged on, releasing albums filled with his amazing fretwork. EMI.
Includes liner notes by Jon Sutherland.

This cd is so unbelievable to listen to over and over....listen to it late at night, in bed with the lights out and you'd swear Hendrix was there too!

Good Album!
I like Trower's In City Dreams better, but this is very good, except for the last few "Bonus Tracks". These are live recordings, and the music suffers somewhat, but overall, worth the money.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  Oh what an awesome CD
I can remember first hearing Robin Trower, back in '74 when my older brother came home with an LP "Bridge Of Sighs" Being a drummer since I was twelve, this LP opened new avenues of "chops" for me. Well, my brother took the LP with him when he moved and I was stuck with a cassette! UGH. This recording, however, made feel like I was back in '75 on the front row in Dallas all over again! What awesome sound and selection! THIS CD ROCKS!

Rock - N - Roll at its Finest
Granted the CD was done 30 years ago, but it makes you remember when 3 guys could knock you over with hard-driving, straight-forward rock n roll. The additional 5 live track really add to a solid classic. What are you waiting for, experience the 2nd British Invasion.

This 1997 reissue of ARE YOU EXPERIENCED? is a remastered version that restores the original LP's track order and album artwork. ARE YOU EXPERIENCED? was previously reissued in 1993 (MCA 10893) with new cover art and a new 17-track running order that included all the songs on either the U.S. or U.K. versions of the original LP. That version is now out of print, and has been replaced by this one, on the Experience Hendrix label, which features remastered versions of the same 17 songs, this time in the order they appeared on the original American LP, with the extra tracks added to the end (a separate version was simultaneously released in the U.K., featuring the same songs but in the original British track order). The Experience Hendrix label is controlled by Hendrix's family.
The 1997 reissue also adds a 24-page booklet with previously-unpublished photos, the original LP liner notes and song lyrics.

$6.75 
A surprise best-seller when it was first released, this mostly improvised pairing of singer/keyboardist/producer Al Kooper with two major guitar heroes of the day sounds fascinating all these years later precisely because of the distance of time--nobody makes records like this any more. The material runs the gamut from folk pop (covers of Donovan and Dylan), to blues ("Albert's Shuffle," "You Don't Love Me"), to heady jams ("His Holy Modal Majesty"), to big-band jazz ("Harvey's Tune").
All the tunes make effective templates for the kind off-the-cuff music-making that in less capable hands might have resulted in simple noodling. In fact, although Bloomfield and Stills don't play together on any of the cuts (Bloomfield played on one side of the original LP, Stills on the other), all three principals get off lots of good licks and producer Kooper has some interesting tricks up his sleeve, as in the over-the-top phasing he lavishes on "You ...
