"Twice Removed From Yesterday" Reissued
Лейблом Iconoclassic в апреле 2010 г. переиздан великолепный (а есть ли у него плохие?!) дебютный альбом Робина Трауэра "Twice Removed From Yesterday" (1973 г.). Из жизни уже ушли ударник Reg Isidore и вокалист и бас-гитарист James Dewar, но их феноменальное мастерство будет жить вечно на дисках, при записи которых они во всю мощь продемонстрировали все грани своего таланта. Этот альбом не исключение. На альбоме мне особенно нравятся песни "I Can't Wait Much Longer" и "Hannah".

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 Reg Isadore (drums). The power trio's initial offering, Twice Removed From Yesterday, 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."
