Queen at the opera and Rabbits first 2 albums were released around the same time in the mid 70's _maybe thats why there is a similarity. In 1977 I would listen to a cassette with Queen at the opera on one side and Croak & a Grunt in the night on the other. Trevors story is an inspirational one.
@drewper73 Boy Band is probably an insult _ it was called glam rock - it was the 70's _ T Rex, David Bowie _ Slade all wore feathers and platform shoes _ yeah it was an interesting era
@Beggarsbanquet100 You're right. I remember as I was typing that I drew a blank when I tried to think of the proper genre. Yeah, it's definitely not boy band. I guess it was the South African version of glam. Trevor Rabin is amazing. I wish he would release a new studio album. I was in high school when "Can't Look Away" came out. Some songs had to grow on me more than others, but overall it was a really good record for it's time.
@SteveHoweJeffBerlin Yes Trevor Horn produced 90125 and produced part of Big Generator where he was a great producer.. I think Rabin and Horn clashed alot though as far as I have read. Trevor Horn gave Rabin a great introduction in 2004 when Cinema perfromed at the Prince s Trust in London which I thought was very humble of Trevor ( Horn)
@Beggarsbanquet100 Trevor Rabin & Trevor Horn actually became & are very good friends after their initial clashes. Trevor Horn even had Trevor play guitar on several albums & artists Horn produced including Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Seal, & Tina Turner through the years. The 2004 Prince's Trust Concert was so great seeing the 2 Trevors tip their hats to one another and have a grand time!
6:33 BTW for all the Steve purists, ( BTW, I happen to adore Steve Howe's artistry for the record), the 9012Live clip of Trevor strumming the acoustic gtr part so beautifully from the intro. to "I've Seen All Good People"...just so eloquent & magical..and great clip from the end of the Dortmund "Starship Trooper" where the audience holds up the banner "Say Yes To Yes" as Chris & Trevor bow on stage with Jon. that's my favorite part.
@arweiss100 Thankyou - Glad you enjoyed the clips - I do enjoy the interpretation of Roundabout as well _ he gives Steve Howe solos a life of their own. I am busy trying to get some exclusive Rabbit Footage to see if I can put together a feature on this group who I dont feel received a fair representaion on the Cart Blanche documentary (M Net) - interveiwning those house wives and asking Trevor if they were going to have a reunion was really embarrasing
@Beggarsbanquet100 That sounds great! Feel free to pop me an email & let me know! Very much looking forward to it! I agree with you a bit there too. Would much rather see insight into the crafting of Rabbit's music, their influences, more interview footage with Trevor & the members of Rabbitt, and the A&R & Mgmt, record people, etc., other artists they worked with., etc. Thanks!
@arweiss100 Willd do _ i was signed to their producer Patrick van Blerk in 1987 - I also worked with Duncan Faure in 1994 _ I still stay in touch with him _ he now lives in Vegas - Rabbit had a short life span and only recorded 2 albums an one without Trevor - The first album was recorded as a 3 piece when they were still called Conglomeration ( terrbile name) _ when is Trevors new solo album being released
@Beggarsbanquet100 Trevor's solo record was tentatively supposed to be released Sept. 2011, but is now delayed, I'm thinking & hoping it will still come out the latter part of 2011, from what I have heard, but at this point whenever it finally does come out (you know how record companies are with changing release dates), I look very forward to it. I know Duncan has a music career of his own w/ his own official YouTube! Very cool. Are from South Africa since you were signed to Patrick?!
@arweiss100 YEs!!! I live in Johannesburg - I saw Rabbit in the 1970's and they were an amazing band - There is a clip of Duncan and myself dressed as The Beatles ( rather poorly) on my channel. we still stay in contact via E Mail Do you live in Germany
If you made this, you did a great job.

Trevor has a heart and soul. It is in his distinct sound,for each instrument he plays. Then
his singing,can't explain it. I just want to listen to him. His love for his wife,is quite apparent
in the way he protrays himself. A very motivated man. Thanks for uploading this video.Now
I can catch up on his good looks.

Bloody hell, Trevor emanates Queen in those early piano/ballad songs!

Being the albums were produced by the great Trevor Horn, that really helped.
