4.0 out of 5 stars ANOTHER SOLID TROWER CD, March 12, 2003

I've got all 23 TROWER CD's and could therefore be called biased.
I also own about 600 other guitar orientated CD's and this is one of the better blues CD's. It took at least a dozen listens
before the finer points came to the fore.If you listen only once or twice and are not familier with TROWER's style you may think this is just another formula blues CD. His vocals are adequate but his guitar playing shines as ever.It's subtle with beautiful
tone and every note has it's place, none are wasted. It is a bit understated compared to other TROWER CD's but develops a charm of it's own after a number of listens. This is definitely not one of his best CD's ( it's one of the few that only earns 4 stars in my book ) but if you like the blues and TROWER you will like this.
P.S. For more up to date TROWER sounds with better vocals ( sorry ROBIN ) check out 20th CENTURY BLUES. This CD features LIVINGSTONE BRAMBELL on bass and vocals and is a raucous blues outing that reminds me of his best output from his glory years.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid effort but not for all Trower fans, June 22, 2000

Overall a pretty good album. However fans of Trower's driving/etheral rhythm playing may feel this effort falls a little flat. This represents a dramatic departure from his early albums. For instance, keyboards often take up the slack as Robin concentrates more on improvising. Trower dishes up some very sweet soloing but I expected Trower's straight ahead blues to have more bite in the rhythm section and a little more groove over all.

3.0 out of 5 stars Robin Trower - 'Someday Blues' (V-12), April 19, 2005

One thing you can say about Robin Trower is that his place in music is still as relevant now as it was thirty years ago.At least to his true followers.'Someday Blues' is obviously an all-out blues effort and for the first time Mr.Trowers is supplying the vocals.Yes,you read that right.Actually his singing is pretty decent.Fear not,shred-guitar fans,this CD doesn't suffer one bit.All ten cuts are well written and played,with the best being "Crossroads","Feel So Bad","Extermination Blues" and "Looking For A True Love".Longtime Trower fans should like this disc and who knows?It could easily draw some new fans.Give it a spin.Enjoy.
