Robin Trower's peak commercial period occurred during the mid-'70s, when
the bluesy guitarist specialized in a style that relied heavily on the
power of the almighty riff (as evidenced by just about any selection from
his best known release, 1974's Bridge of Sighs). But on his 1997 offering,
Someday Blues, Trower tries a different approach, as he cuts back on the
Jimi Hendrix-esque riffing, and focuses more on Albert King-style licks,
and letting Hammond organ fill in much of the open spaces. This approach is
best sampled on "Feels So Bad" (which features some great vocalizing by
Trower -- who handles all singing on the album as well) and the
slow-burning title track. And for fans of a classic, searing Fender Strat
tone, the album-closing "Sweet Little Angel" is a must-hear. While there's
nothing here that matches the six-string pyrotechnics of, say, "Day of the
Eagle," Trower still proves to be a major blues-rock force on Someday
Blues. It's just that now Trower puts an added emphasis on the "blues"
rather than the "rock."
