Robin Trower has been one of my favourite guitar slingers. Bridge of Sighs is still on my Play List in my car and at home.

Thank you for posting this Grog. It was very interesting to me.

Robin Trower's, "Bridge of Sighs" is one of the best.

Thanks for posting @Grog.  Robin Trower is one of the greats.  To me, right up there with Clapton and Santana.  I was taking some lessons with a local guy and he was using "Day of the Eagle" to work on block chords with me that Trower uses so often.  I had to quit but it was fun and I need to get back.

I'm with @Maybellene, "Bridge of Sighs" is one of the best.  Along with "Too Rolling Stoned", "Where are You Going" and "Daydream" and "Messin' the Blues" and ..............  :)

Bridge of Sighs, the CD has Bridge of Sighs, A little Bit of Sympathy,  The Fool and Me, Too Rolling Stoned, Day of the Eagle  etc...... the CD is in my car, not the song. It is a GREAT CD! One epic guitar song after another. Robin Trower at his best. It doesn't feel dated at all.

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I still play some Procal Harem as well :D
