Hope everyone had a nice Easter with family and friends.

This week's blog was going to be on some baby robins that I photographed. I have 409 images of them growing up from the egg to flying away! With 409 images I need a little more time to sort through them, so that will be next week's blog. Today we have Robin Trower from 1974!

It's a different kind of robin! This one rocks and is still rocking today. I have photographed him a lot, and had the pleasure to meet him and he is one nice guitar player!

These photos show James Dewar on bass guitar. He was also Robin Trower's vocalist until his passing years ago.

Enjoy a look at Robin in 1974, and word is- he is getting ready for a new tour of America! Be sure to catch him this summer if you can.

Have a great week.

Thanks,

I went through my photo library looking for pictures for today's blog. It surprises me that I haven't done a blog on Robin Trower.

Robin was a founding member of Procol Harum and then went on to pursue a solo career which has been very successful.

He is an amazing guitarist and with vocalist James Dewar in the 1970's they had a few hits. "Bridge of Sighs" was one of them.

In the 1970's I photographed Robin a lot as his played his way through Wisconsin college towns.

Enjoy a look at Robin in 1974 at Milwaukee's Performing Arts Center and at Summerfest in 2009.

Sadly, I must say that James Dewar is no longer with us, but Robin continues to tour the world with a great band. Check him out when he is in your neighborhood and you won't be disappointed!

Thanks,
