Robin Trower, once an essential element of Procol Harum for 5 albums, eventually split from that band to go solo after a failed attempt in another band. Formed in 1973, Robin Trower released Twice Removed From Yesterday. But it was his Bridge Of Sighs album that hit the gold standard when it released in 1974. The album didn’t yield a hit single but more than half the album ended up being popular staples of the great FM Radio experience of the day. 2024 marks the 50th anniversary of Bridge of Sighs, and so…
On May 17, Chrysalis will help celebrate that 50th Anniversary of Bridge of Sighs with a brand new Stereo Mix and Remaster of the album, and coupling it with outtakes and rarities never heard before, and a CD of a live US show in its entirety from the period. Additionally, a Blu-ray will be packed into the box with 5.1 Surround Mix, Atmos mix, and a collection of outtakes, and instrumental tracks. Sounds like a grand party to me!
The 50th Anniversary reissue of Bridge Of Sighs will be issued in the 3CD/BD Box that will host a filled 24-page booklet, and be packed inside a media book housing. A 2LP set with Half-Speed Mastering, pressed on 180g-weight black vinyl that will be housed in a deluxe double gatefold jacket is being offered. You can also expect DD offerings as well. Pre-order here!
