for earth below/ live.......2006-11-10

robin trower for earth below. its a good, if not above average robin trower recording. a very even effort building upon the foundation laid on twice removed from yesterday and adding new guitar textures to a good blues rock sound all in all a very good record!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! robin trower live! this is the one that put robin in heavy rotation on the a.o.r. f.m. radio. a great quick shot of robins live set up until the mid 70's. i wish they could find complete concerts from this era of robins career because he was on fire during this time.

Two Great Trower Albums At One Low Price.......2006-08-01

FOR EARTH BELOW/LIVE is a single-disc compilation of two great Robin Trower albums from the 70s. LIVE is one of the best live albums ever released, and FOR EARTH BELOW was a great follow-up to the exceptional BRIDGE OF SIGHS. Any serious fan of blues-based rock & roll should own this one.

Two Of Trower's Best.......2006-07-10

Any rock fan knows that "Bridge Of Sighs" is one of the best rock albums of all time.
But if you love "Bridge" you must have these 2 albums. "Bridge" is an A+ but these are both A's. "For Earth Below" is an incredible follow up to "Bridge". It keeps the same feel but the song writing is even tighter. "Trower Live" is one of the best live rock records ever made. The feedback ferocity and finesse on "Daydream" is worth the price alone. If you like Trower, these are must have LP's.

Great Artist, Poor CD Quality.......2006-02-25

Robin Trower deserves 10 stars. Problem is, this CD sounds like it was recorded to cassette first and then burned on a CD later. Very "muffled" sound and needs to be turned up higher to get the same output as other CDs in my collection.

Guitar never sounded better.......2006-02-10

The critical album on this release is "Live." Anyone curious to hear how good an electric guitar can possibly sound should purchase this CD. Trower deals in both overdriven and clean sounds with his Fender Strat, and his use of effects like the wah-wah pedal and the Uni-Vibe, while sometimes drawing unfair and shallow comparisons to Hendrix, is unparallelled in grace and style.

When Trower unleashes a sustained feedback note (i.e. near the end of "Daydream"), I want it to last thirty minutes. But he's also capable of dramatic bursts and flurries of notes, punctuated by bends and whammy bar workouts ... as Robert Fripp himself noted, Robin Trower has mastered the "bends and wobbles."

During the last solo of "Lady Love," Trower plays a pinch harmonic that is THE sweetest single note I ever heard, anywhere.

Jimmy Dewar lays down a great bass groove throughout - and his voice is quite powerful. He has a rich, soulful vibrato that compliments the music nicely.

Bill Lordan is a good, jazzy drummer, although occasionally his cymbals do clutter the sound, especially on the live album. But let's face it, the reason we are all listening to this is to hear what Robin is gonna play next :)

I could write pages about how great this CD is - do not wait a minute longer. Order it!
