I can't find any Fender 50's or 60's pups like Robin has to go in my strat but I did find some Vintage Single Coils from Surh at their website. You can buy each individual pickup and not have to get the entire set like the Fender ones. Would these meet Trower standards? Tone wise?
Totally COOL Robin --- AMAZING " Signature Tone..." Only You have that Sound . !!!! I wish you were coming to Toronto...some time soon. Have you tried the Custom Shop 1969 pick ups. ???? Have you ever tried a Yngwie Malmsteen Stratocaster..or any other Strats from other Artists.??? I like the Hardwire Tr-7 Pedal for Uni-vibe.!
Sorry,Robin,this is not your first ever open air gig in England - you played Reading Festival on the sunday evening in 1975!!! you were good then - possibly even better now......
Robin Sounds Just Like he did in the early 1980"s. We were blessed when he visited a little venue called the "Blue Moon" in Elgin Illinois. I was blessed to be able to sit right in front of the stage thru the entire performance. Burned some of my Long Red Hair and I wore No ear plugs either !!! Lol. Thank you Robin Trower you are a gift to our world.
I saw Robin and his band in Glasgow on 23rd Sept. Great show and was very impressed by Richard Watts singing and bass playing . I was surprised at first that it wasn't the usual line up but ended up really enjoying the night . Look forward to next tour .
Errr.....Robin I saw you at Reading Festival in 1975. The Sun was shining, so I know it was outdoors! Fantastic performance, BTW - The crowd ended up just chucking stuff up in the air :-)
Never thought anyone could come close to Jimmy Dewar - this new guy is great. Saw them at the Stables, Milton Keynes - totally blown away. Took me back to seeing Robin at the Hammersmith Odeon circa '79?
I saw Robin @ the Pabst Theater last may in Milwaukee,Wi My 6th time I have seen him.He was incredible.He has a lot of years left in him.His entire band is very talented also.My dream is for Robin to headline the Paramount Blues Fest. in Grafton,Wi.someday.
Great to see you out and about, Robin! I've been a fan since I was 16, with Bridge of Sighs. I always thought that was mythical place,until I saw "Ponte de Suspiro", (Italian, or Bridge of Sighs in English) in Venice.It is a short bridge between the Dojes' Palace, and the Jail. Those sentenced to death would be escorted accross what became known as the bridge of sighs, and through the small barred windows, would glimpse theit last sight of freedom, before meeting their fate.Lovely place, that!
I saw them last night in Derby. Robin was Robin.... Awesome as ever. Livingstone Brown fills Dewar's boots very well..... really soulful playing and showed a great deal of respect for the original recordings. And the drummer (apologies... don't know his name) was the driving force behind the rockier numbers and provided great feeling for the the others. Well done lads.
Nobody can replace Dewar, but Livingston Brown (20th Century Blues) was the next best singer he`s had. Wish he could tour with Robin again, instead of producing Robins Albums..

The bass player/vocalist in this video is Richard Watts. He first joined Robin around 2000 and appears on Robin's "Go My Way" album.

@hawg427 I think that's the guy that sang on some LOOT tracks. He's ok. We can never go back to the Dewar days. Just be glad Robin's still playing.
