These days, #BryanFerry is a pro-fox hunting/anti-Scottish Independence Tory blowhard - albeit one with impeccable taste in men's formal wear. But that says nothing of his graceful musical instincts and beautiful #falsetto, still utterly captivating as he nears 8 decades on this planet. His take on #JBlackfoot's "Taxi" (from 1993, produced by #RobinTrower) lends quiet desperation to the original. This one's always on repeat somewhere in the back of my mind.

Heavy Birthdays 80th Ray Davies (THE KINKS) - 1944 THE KINKS have sold over 50 million albums worldwide. .
We have a cat named Robin. She was not named after English guitar hero Robin Trower*.
Robin Trower had a US tour booked for this fall and he has a 50th anniversary expanded edition of his biggest record, Bridge of Sighs, due to hit the stores tomorrow. I did not buy tickets to his show in my neck of the woods, on October 5th (which is also my sister’s birthday), but I was thinking about it. Strongly. I saw him live once in 1988 (I think) and would love to see him one more time before he packs it in.
Unfortunately, just the other day he had to cancel the tour. He has a health issue that requires surgery and has the possibility of a long recovery period. It seems I may have missed my chance to see him one more time. Crud.
Get well soon, Mr Trower. Come back and see us soon, and maybe bring a Les Paul with you. I mean you used to play Gibsons back in your Procol Harem days. I know you’ve been pretty much 100% Strat since then, but maybe it might be fun to be nostalgic for the old days, eh?
*Robin the cat was not named after Robin Trower. She was named after Robin Sparkles.
Some more #RobinTrower - not as well known as Bridge of Sighs but still amazing. I can’t beleive I hadn’t heard of this guy before sometime in the last year…I have a lot of stuff to catch up on. Pretty sure I got this record from a dollar bin, and it’s in great shape. A good vacuum cleaning helped for sure.
"Bridge of Sighs" by Robin Trower released this day in 1974.

Today is Robin Trower’s 79th birthday. Happy Birthday!
He is unusual for a guitarist of his generation in that he hasn’t seemed to have lost a step at all. Most guys who are pushing 80 years old are not playing as well today as they did a couple of decades ago. Not Robin Trower. He’s as good, if not better, than he was 20 or 30 or even 40 years ago. I wonder what his secret is. Probably something lame like taking care of himself and practicing a lot.

As I take a brief moment to pause from the cleaning festivities so that I can take my afternoon vitamin pills, allow me to share with the group that this album from 1969 is a freakin’ masterpiece:
Upon the seventh seasick day
We made our port of call
A sand so white, and sea so blue
No mortal place at allKeith Reid
I don’t know if I’ve ever realized it before, but the name Keith Reid breaks the English language “i before e except after c” rule twice. Weird.
Hard to believe this album is almost 50.
