In this episode of The Pressing Matters, I dive into the new 50th Anniversary vinyl reissue of Robin Trower’s For Earth Below. But this isn’t just a review — it’s also the story of the unforgettable way I first heard this record, and how that moment imprinted the music on me forever.
I’ll cover the pressing quality, sound details, packaging, and whether this reissue is worth your time and money — especially if you’re a longtime Trower fan or just discovering his music through vinyl.
