Members keith2112 Posted January 13, 2006 Members Share Posted January 13, 2006 I've never ever made the Hendrix analogy. He sounds way different to me. Trower is the true master of the stratocaster. He blows Claptone, Beck and all others away. Listen to Daydream and tell me there is a beter strat tone out there anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members pezguy Posted January 13, 2006 Members Share Posted January 13, 2006 Trower is definately one of my favorites. The video was great and Davey Pattison is a great vocalist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Talkshowhost Posted January 13, 2006 Members Share Posted January 13, 2006 Thanks for posting the link. Trower is my favorite guitarist, I just picked up a strat and have been really getting into his stuff. I hope when I am his age I can still rock (hell I hope I make it to his age!). cheers.

Members travis bickle Posted January 13, 2006 Members Share Posted January 13, 2006 trouwer is no joke, but to dismiss the hendrix comparison is bordering on insanity. he sounds quite A LOT like my man jimi. but what's wrong with paying hommage to your favorite guitarist?

Not bad for 60 years old. Still got the vibrato, though it's differnt from the old days. Should be a cool dvd. Due in Feb I believe. Looks like the drummer has been ....eating his wheaties daily.

Members rbm Posted January 14, 2006 Members Share Posted January 14, 2006 Trower is like the catholic church to me in that he keeps alive the traditions of the "Jesus Christ" of guitarist - Jimi.He was doing the same {censored} when Hendrix was around and still doing it right! Kinda like the Catholic Church (except Robin ain't no prevert) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AJ6stringsting Posted January 15, 2006 Members Share Posted January 15, 2006 Originally posted by peppy As to Trower copying Hendrix, I find Trower a bit heavier and yet more controlled as a guitar player than Hendrix was, and with a bit different style of songcraft...thus I don't quite compare the two. I agree, I've been playing guitar over 26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
