I enjoy Trower's flavoring of electric blues...and am pleased to recommend this product. being a player for about 40 years, I know my way around the guitar and in recent years have had the luxury of not playing in a band, which, requires dedicating off-playing time to keeping current with set music, which, is not always your personal prefernce. So, for a hoot, I have bought a few of these instructionals just to see what they had. Of the few I've seen, I like this one, and most especially recommend it to developing players. It opens with Trower in concert probably late80's/early 90's, which, allows the viewer to grasp what the man is about and to hear the finished product of what he is about to show in the lessons. Trower offers good info on his tone, (probably one of the things I like best about his sound) in the way of set up, amps/setting and effects. From there he explains the basics to the degree that will allow an ambitious player to take it from there, so to speak. Covers some nice licks, that will open a guys mind a bit, as his style is not so standard rock/blues from perhaps higher profile stars. Trower is a very interesting guy and from what I can tell in this product, seemingly a very nice-humble guy, which is most appealing. The slow-motion-looping ability allows a player to go over an over the material covered. Last, as a treat...he shows the format on a couple of his hits. Not for the novice, but, for someone who has the basics down and wants to be a better player...this is a very good product...By the way...Trower is on Tour in the US...January, starts in Florida. I'm going to catch him in Seattle in Feb...catch him while you can, I doubt he will be touring for another 30 years. Best Regards

Robin Trower is a player held in high esteem by guitarists around the world. His totally unique sound and style is fully explored in this excellent video from the early 1990's. His technique is fully revealed at a liesurely pace, with excellent camerawork, and includes surprising comments and demonstrations of his personal guitar setup and amplification. It's a very friendly, intimate lesson that will have an immediate impact on any aspiring blues/rock musician. This set would be a bargain at five times the price!

I received this dvd as a gift.
I wouldn't have considered purchasing it myself, as I am not a musician.
I was in awe for the whole dvd! To have one of the greatest living rock guitarists explain his techniques in his own (shy) words is priceless!
A must buy for any devoted Trower fan...

Any chance to see Robin play is a real treat. To my mind he really filled the gap after the untimely death of JIMI who's music I love of course. He really has the GOD given touch. You know it just goes to show that a STRAT and MARSHALL don't make you an Instant JIMI or Robin. Anyway this DVD is a MUST for guitar playing fans of ROBIN.
