Product Description

RARE Original Japanese Pressing! High Quality Vinyl In Immaculate Condition! Includes Insert With Notes In Japanese & Lyrics In English. A Masterpiece Guitar LP From Robin Trower — Highly Recommended!

Condition – Vinyl: NEAR MINT!

Condition – Cover: VERY GOOD PLUS! Some spots of foxing, due to age.

Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors, due to their premium sound quality and beautifully presented packaging. The sonic quality of Japanese records is regarded as the best in the world. No wonder all the original Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab records were pressed in Japan! The covers are printed on better quality heavy stock paper too. Near Mint condition original Japanese pressings are becoming scarcer — and therefore more collectable and valuable every year.

Side 1:
Day Of The Eagle
Bridge Of Sighs
In This Place
The Fool And Me

Side 2:
Too Rolling Stoned
About To Begin
Lady Love
Little Bit Of Sympathy

    AMG – March 15, 2016

    Bridge of Sighs holds up to repeated listenings as a timeless work, as well as the crown jewel in Trower's extensive catalog. 4 ½ Stars Guitarist Robin Trower's watershed sophomore solo disc remains his most stunning, representative, and consistent collection of tunes. Mixing obvious Hendrix influences with blues and psychedelia, then adding the immensely soulful vocals of James Dewar, Trower pushed the often limited boundaries of the power trio concept into refreshing new waters. The concept gels best in the first track, "Day of the Eagle," where the opening riff rockingly morphs into the dreamy washes of gooey guitar chords that characterize the album's distinctive title track that follows. At his best, Trower's gauzy sheets of oozing, wistful sound and subtle use of wah-wah combine with Dewar's whisky-soaked soul-drenched vocals to take a song like the wistful ballad "In This Place" into orbit. "Too Rolling Stoned," another highlight and one of the most covered tracks from this album, adds throbbing, subtle funk to the mix, changing tempos midway to a slow, forceful amble on top of which Trower lays his quicksilver guitar. One of the few Robin Trower albums without a weak cut, Bridge of Sighs holds up to repeated listenings as a timeless work, as well as the crown jewel in Trower's extensive yet inconsistent catalog. 4 ½ Stars

    Check out the masterful title track or the amazing “Too Rolling Stoned”… ‘Bridge of Sighs’ is atmospheric, powerful, soulful -- Essential!! The best album from the British blues rock guitarist, Robin Trower! Check out the masterful title track or the amazing “Too Rolling Stoned”… Undoubtedly some of the greatest Strat playing since the days of Hendrix, ‘Bridge of Sighs’ is atmospheric, powerful, soulful -- Essential!!
