From Twice Removed from Yesterday (1973). Twice Removed from Yesterday is the English guitarist and songwriter Robin Trower's first solo album. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender American Original 50s Stratocaster through a Marshall 1959SLP Plexi Super Lead Reissue, the rig we use for Robin Trower's other songs from Twice Removed from Yesterday, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.
