The title track of Robin Trower's 1974 album Bridge of Sighs is his from top to bottom: he wrote the music and the lyrics, and he plays the guitar. James Dewar sings it and plays bass, Reg Isidore holds down the drums, and Matthew Fisher sat in the producer's chair.

Stripped to a trio, it leaves Trower all the room he could want, and he fills it with a guitar that moans, smolders and hangs in the air like smoke over a sweaty hall, while Dewar's voice rides the murk.
