Robin Trower: Digging Deep Into The Pocket
Mike Mettler, Guitar Player, September 1994
"IT'S BEEN difficult for me to drop into the background, since my whole life has been about being in the foreground," observes Robin Trower about his participation in a failed Procol Harum reunion album and his role as co-producer on Brian Ferry's Taxi and upcoming Horoscope. On his new release 20th Century Blues (V-12 Records), the veteran rocker steps out of the shadows and back to his bluesy roots.
