Brought Robin Trower's Bridge of Sighs on the highway this morning after hearing Day of the Eagle on a compilation, blew my ****ing mind. Total stratcore wankery with very Bad Company-esque vocals. On the more energetic tracks (Day of the Eagle, Too Rolling Stoned, A Little Bit of Sympathy) Trower often throws in these super hype blues breakdowns & tempo shifts that totally make the album for me.
Stratocasters are all over the damn place and it takes some serious digging to find those who truly milk them for all they're worth. It may be premature for me to say but I feel like Robin Trower stands confidently among Stevie Ray Vaughan, Hendrix, and Ritchie Blackmore in terms of strat mastery.
