Update May 12, 2011.

Alright, perhaps I did make one too many comparisons to other artists in my original review of Robin Trower's Twice Removed From Yesterday, which explains all the negativity in the comments section. I should have explained the album in detail like I normally do. I'm not sure why I didn't do that originally.

Anyway, here's a better review of Twice Removed from Yesterday.

What instantly strikes me about this album is the mood. It's dreamy yes, but underneath the beautiful guitar playing and vocal melodies I sense a fairly melancholy and depressing vibe. It's like being in heaven alone.

"Daydream" contains shades of Jimi Hendrix in the guitar solos and atmosphere, but what blows me away is how HUGE the music sounds. This is definitely different from most 70's hard rock bands. When I say "huge" I mean it sounds like some important grand statement, like this is how a beautiful song is supposed to be written. Hendrix never quite reached a level *this* awesome.

One key difference between Trower and Hendrix is that Robin Trower tends to really dig into your emotions with his guitar playing, whereas Hendrix occasionally goes for emotion, but also had his moments of showing off. I also feel that Hendrix's music is more immediately enjoyable whereas Trower's guitar skills take time to absorb.

I can imagine how magical this song must have sounded when it was originally released, and even today it still sounds pretty cool. I believe Rainbow was influenced heavily by this song because "Catch the Rainbow" contains a strikingly similar flow and atmosphere.

"I Can't Wait Much Longer" has a surprisingly soulful vocal melody.

This is the beginning or as it said on the plastic cover "The Bridge to The Bridge of Sighs" an often overlooked, underrated album in my book. This is a little underproduced compared to Bridge of Sighs but is still a classic. It was only available for a long time as one of the two on one cds (with Bridge of Sighs on same cd) and then that went out of print. I guess if you want the debut of a master musician, this is it.
This would be better for the fan that is already familiar with Trower and just wants a new copy for prosperity or whatever; the new fan may be better off with "The Essential Robin Trower" as more of an overview of Robin Trower.
Solid playing on solid songs, no nonsense and yes, for those that don't know, if there are any, it is derivative of Hendrix. All in all a great debut and welcom re-release. Also includes the bonus track "Take A Fast Train"

Great album (sorry I'm of the Album generation!) We don't have many Robin/Dewar recordings to savor--so I'm grateful for the ones we have! I still to this day remember the first time I heard TR. I was a teenager living in Germany. I was sitting on the couch one evening just listening to the radio--most likely plucking on my cheap Framus (German) Strat copy dreaming of being able to play like Jimi and carry the flame for him (dreaming!) And I distinctly remember the disk jockey introducing the next song because he said something to the effect that: "this brilliant new guitarist was going to make a big impact on the guitar world with his Hendrix like vibe or tone"...then, blasting out of the little radio speaker came a cascade of pure sonic nirvana, "Little Bit of Sympathy." I don't think I even slept that night. I wasn't even sure I believed my ears--I was both excited and crest fallen that someone had beaten me to my childish goal! It was a double wammy as I was as impressed with the vocals as I was the guitar playing! RIP James! One of Rocks greatest vocalist ever! Robins guitar and James' soulful voice were a match made in heaven! Needles to say the very next morning I went out and found the 'Sighs" album and "Twice Removed". I was astounded! No doubt BOS was a better album but "Twice Removed" is still one of my favorites. It's a slice of guitar history. Compare him to Hendrix or not--what sets Trower apart is his Raw Emotion. That ability to push emotion through your finger tips out the speaker/or soundhole and into the listener--some call that the Blues. Whatever it is, it's not an easy task to accomplish...and very few players ever achieve it: Trower HAS IT, Hendrix certainly had it in spades, Bloomfield, Rory Gallagher, The Kings (BB,Albert,Freddie), to name a few.Read more ›

I'm always interested in anything/everything RT, and especially with the promise of improved audio to the older catalog titles.

However, comparing this new release to the 1997 BGO-label Twice/Bridge remastered two-fer, I found virtually no difference in the mastering of that disc and this new release.

The addition of the "Man Of The World" single b-side, "Take A Fast Train", is, of course, a nice bonus, but not necessarily essential. Plus, having owned the BGO since its release, I wasn't aware that it had fell OOP, or that it was being hawked for ridiculous prices here on Amazon, so this re-release at a normal cost is also welcome.

However, if you already have the BGO, you may wish to consider whether or not to re-purchase this edition, just to end up with the same audio, and the one bonus track.

As the booklet liner notes document, "Twice" will always be overshadowed by "Bridge Of Sighs", and was recorded quickly on a shoestring budget without a record company deal. But, what a fabulous and timeless album it turned out to be.

9/2010 UPDATE: EMI has released a FABULOUS new RT 3CD set, A Tale Untold: The Chrysalis Years (1973-1976). It not only contains the first five RT albums in their entirety, with bonus tracks (including "Take A Fast Train"), it has the best mastering of ANY RT release! So, bypass this CD, and definitely replace any of the first 5 RT albums you have in your collection with that new set, you won't be sorry!
