Robin Trower comes from a time when guitarists were truly unique: each style different and every player's sound was his own. If you stack the music of, say, Robin Trower, Eric Clapton, Jimmy Page and Pete Townsend against each other, you'll find that while each were powerful musicians with similar backgrounds, no two sounded alike. That is essentially what this page pays tribute to: a golden age of music where the true power lay in the power to be different. A time when every idea was fresh, new ground was always being broken, and in an age when some of the best rock and roll was made, Trower stood as one of the giants. Here you will find news, photos, discography, lyrics, covers, articles, tour dates, links to other pages, and much more.
