255 - Robin Trower
Hi Vintage Guitar people! welcome to “Have Guitar Will Travel”, presented by Vintage Guitar Magazine! With your host, me, James Patrick Regan. Today I’m speaking with Guitar Legend Robin Trower. In our conversation Robin speaks about the guitars and amps he was using early on, Gretsch and Gibson’s and Selmer Amps and what brought about his switch to Fender Strats and Marshall amps. Robin talks about his early influences particularly Scotty Moore and B.B. King and he describes the early bands in his neighborhood particularly the Fabulous Rockefellers, who inspired him to play the guitar. Robin describes getting together with his friend Chris Copping and working out tunes together and he tells us about his band “the Paramounts”. Robin tells us about his time in Procol Harum and what led to the start of his band and the people that made up his band throughout the years and who he has now and he tells us about his new album “Robin Trower - Live! 50th Anniversary Edition Landmark 1975 Stockholm show” Robin talks about seeing Jimi Hendrix early on when Procol Harum shared the bill in early 1968. Robin discusses his use of pedals in the ‘70’s and the Fulltone pedals he uses now. Robin tells us about his Fender signature model which is his preferred guitar to play these days and he talks about his guitar collection which was stolen which led to not having a collection now. Finally Robin tells us about touring and playing music at 81 and how that keeps his spirit young and his love of soccer and reading nautical novels.
