Are We Just People? - Robin Trower, Maxi Priest, Livingston Brown.

Funk. Soul. Robin on the Stratocaster

He was an early Hendrix disciple who took the concept farther & different.
One thing that made his sound unique is how little he used the bridge pickup on his Stray. Used the middle & neck pickups (or the 4th position with both on) A LOT!
The Bridge of Sighs album is a masterwork.
