Street Corner Talking

Street Corner Talking (1971) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

After 1970's Looking In album, Peverett, Roger Earl, and Tony Stevens left to form Foghat, leaving Kim Simmonds with yet another dilemma. But for Simmonds, things went a little smoother than he might have imagined, picking up piano player Paul Raymond, bassman Andy Silvester, and drummer Dave Bidwell, all from Chicken Shack. He also hired singer ...

Looking In

Looking In (1970) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Savoy Brown's blues-rock sound takes on a much more defined feel on 1970's Looking In and is one of this band's best efforts. Kim Simmonds is utterly bewildering on guitar, while Lonesome Dave Peverett does a fine job taking over lead singing duties from Chris Youlden who left halfway through the year. But it's the captivating arrangements and ...

Raw Sienna

Raw Sienna (1970) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

This high-water mark by the band finds them softening their rougher edges and stretching out into jazz territory, yet still retaining a blues foundation. There's not a bad cut here, with enough variety (bottleneck slide, acoustic guitar, horns, and strings) to warrant frequent late-night listenings. "A Hard Way to Go," "Needle and Spoon," and ...

Hellbound Train

Hellbound Train (1972) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Comprising the same lineup as Street Corner Talking, Savoy Brown released Hellbound Train a year later. For this effort, Kim Simmonds' guitar theatrics are toned down a bit and the rest of the band seems to be a little less vivid and passionate with their music. The songs are still draped with Savoy Brown's sleek, bluesy feel, but the deep-rooted ...

A Step Further

A Step Further (1969) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

With Kim Simmonds and Chris Youlden combining their talents in Savoy Brown's strongest configuration, 1969's A Step Further kept the band in the blues-rock spotlight after the release of their successful Blue Matter album. While A Step Further may not be as strong as the band's former release, all five tracks do a good job at maintaining their ...

Blue Matter

Blue Matter (1969) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

The third release by Kim Simmonds and company, but the first to feature the most memorable lineup of the group: Simmonds, "Lonesome" Dave Peverett, Tony "Tone" Stevens, Roger Earl, and charismatic singer Chris Youlden. This one serves up a nice mixture of blues covers and originals, with the first side devoted to studio cuts and the second a live ...

Blues, Balls and Boogie

Blues, Balls and Boogie (2006) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Very few of the British blues-rock bands of the '60s were still active in the 2000s; the exceptions to that rule included the Yardbirds (who broke up in 1968 and reunited for their Birdland album in 2003), Ten Years After and the long-running Savoy Brown. Of course, describing Savoy Brown as long-running is not to say that they have maintained the ...

The Savoy Brown Collection (Chronicles Series)

The Savoy Brown Collection (Chronicles Series) (1993) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

With one of the smoothest and most compelling guitarists of the blues-rock style, Savoy Brown and the finger wizardry of Kim Simmonds unleashed some of the smoothest and most mesmerizing rock & roll of the 1970s. Their ingenious blend of contented blues and hard-edged rock resulted in some wholesome yet somewhat bypassed guitar music. The Savoy ...

Steel

Steel (2007) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

In his brief liner essay, Kim Simmonds -- whose name is synonymous with Savoy Brown, having founded the group and been its only constant member -- says that this record is a return to basics without artifice, gimmicks, or varnish. OK. Fair enough. But if this is back to the raw blues for Simmonds and company on his millionth album, then why does ...

Strange Dreams (2003) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Except for founding leader/guitarist Kim Simmonds, this long-lived band's 2003 lineup bears no resemblance to the original British group formed in 1966. Still, Savoy Brown deserves credit simply for recording a respectable, even high-quality blues album over 35 years into its existence. Hot off a terrific solo acoustic release, 2001's Blues Like ...

Rock 'n' Roll Warriors (1981) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Though Savoy Brown is primarily known as a blues band, Rock 'n' Roll Warriors says in the title what this is all about, as Kim Simmonds' aggregation obtained in vocalist Ralph Mormon a major component from the Joe Perry Project's first solo album, Let the Music Do the Talking, released the year before this. With producer Richie Wise, himself the ...

Getting to the Point (1968) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Getting to the Point marks the debut of a vastly different lineup, still led by Simmonds but now fronted by new vocalist Chris Youlden. The pair got off to a good start by writing or co-writing most of the album. The playing is solid blues revival, and though Youlden's vocals are often overly imitative of B.B. King and Muddy Waters, he has a ...

Jack the Toad (1973) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Savoy Brown made the best of Dave Walker's departure for Fleetwood Mac by hiring Jack Lynton as their lead singer. While Lynton's voice can't match the warmth instilled by Walker's, he does do a competent job at melding with Kim Simmonds' guitar playing. His voice is sharp but not overly exciting, yet it still presents "Coming Down Your Way" with ...

The Blues Keep Me Holding On (1999) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

Give Savoy Brown credit for carrying on when most of their peers have packed it in. There's not many blues-rock bands from the late '60s still performing and recording, so it is noteworthy that they're still active. And from the sounds of The Blues Keep Me Holding On, they probably give a pretty good concert, too. Unfortunately, they don't make ...

Lion's Share (1972) more music like this

by Savoy Brown

"Shot in the Head," the slide guitar showcase that opens this solid set, became a staple of this veteran English band's live act. In his only full-time stint as singer for demanding bandleader Kim Simmonds, Dave Walker proves a serviceable, if unremarkable, successor to Chris Youlden. Besides their own tunes, the lads cover Howlin' Wolf and Little ...

Live at the Record Plant (1998) more music like this

by Savoy Brown & Kim Simmonds

The performance, recorded at the Record Plant for a radio broadcast, dates from 1975, when the band was at its peak promoting the Wire Fire album. The sound is hot, with Kim Simmonds taking some nice solos, and the band is in good form, covering "Tell Mama," "All I Can Do (Is Cry)," and Jimmy Reed's "You Don't Have to Go." It's all a little pale ...
