Pappy here again. I just saw Robin Trower's latest DVD. There was a bonus interview. Good interview, but there were alot of unanswered questions.
Robin has had the biggest influence on me and my music. That interview above validated my idolization of the man. However....
Please, get someone over there to talk to Robin further. We need a comprehensive Guitar Player interview.
I want to hear more about is signature strat as well.

Pappy;
I saw him about six weeks ago here in the L.A. area, and he is still unbelievable. Have you seen his Living out of Time DVD, or is that the one you were talking about?

Oh yeah, Living Out of Time is exactly the DVD I was talking about.
I was shocked to see Robin Trower sing. He sings alright.
That was just an awesome DVD, the sound was great too. I liked the way you could hear the 60 cycle hum from his neck pup between songs.

Thanks for the support Vikingrat:
Yeah, When I first saw that RT sig Strat. I though it was odd that it looked so new but had a bullet truss rod and a hugh head stock. I thouht the C-shaped neck was very odd with a bullet truss rod and an over-sized head stock.
I want a review, I want a review.
From that DVD I also learned that Robin will keep his lips closed tightly while soloing. But that when he uses his wah peddle his mouth is wide open.
Evidence that the man plays guitar with his soul not not only with his fingers.
Also, the inteview barely scracthed the surface of Mr. Trowes awesome song writing talent (words and music). Mr. Trower has been under-rated as an artist for far too long.
Mr. Molenda, please, I'm begging you.

IMHO. Robin Trower is an unsung guitarist and not just because he doens't usually sing.

Okay, Pappy...
We'll try to get him if he's talking.
But please help us out and post some of those burning questions you want him to answer. No sense doing an interview for you if we don't get the info you want!
Best,
Mike
