Robin Trower

Robin Trower (born March 9, 1945 in Catford, England) is a legendary British rock guitarist who achieved success with Procol Harum during the 1960's, and then again as the leader of his own power trio. In 1962 Robin Trower and Gary Brooker formed a group that would come to be known as The Paramounts. Brooker had left The Paramounts in 1966 to form Procol Harum, which Trower joined in 1967, and where he remained until 1972. After going solo in 1973, he found the individual success that has made him a living legend today. Armed with a fluid and powerful guitar style, refined during his stint with Procol, he recruited singer/bassist James Dewar and drummer Reg Isidore (later replaced by Bill Lordan). Perhaps Trower's most famous album is 'Bridge of Sighs', notable for the artful blending of his powerful guitar playing with the equally powerful singing of the late James Dewar. As of February, 2005, Robin Trower was still actively touring.
