Following Robin Trower’s departure from Procol Harum he
embarked upon a remarkable solo career with the aid of James
Dewar (vocals and bass) and Conrad Isadore (drums). The
power trio’s debut release Twice Removed From Yesterday has
been remastered by Grammy-winning engineer Vic Anesini and
features new liner notes that include a fresh interview with
Robin himself.
Robin Trower’s initial offering was produced by former
Procol band mate Matthew Fisher and the album unleashed the
full force of Trower’s incredible guitar playing. The Fender
Stratocaster was his weapon of choice and the sheer fury
with which Robin attacked uptempo rock and blues was
astonishing considering that those elements of his playing
had only been hinted at in his former band. The contrast of
that was the subtlety and pure lyricism that was displayed
on less aggressive materiel like “Daydream,” an FM radio
staple from back in the day.
This is the album that paved the way to Bridge Of Sighs and
superstardom. The Iconoclassic release is augmented by “Take
A Fast Train,” the B-side of the album’s first single “Man
Of The World.” Coming April 2010.
