I actually think these guys at their best were much better than John Mayalls Blues Breakers. They could hold their own with almost any blues rock outfit. I recommend listening to all of their early albums chronologically to hear that talent and the diversity within their music. Great band. So many top shelf songs.
I can't begin to tell all of you fine people how much I love Savoy Brown. I saw them live in Fla somewhere in the 70s. Kim Simmons has it together. They never reached Super Stardom status but they didn't care and us fans didn't either. They are just a Great group anybody would enjoy seeing live. Street Corner Talking has to have won an Award or More. Luv 'em!
Those were the days . This song is my favorite . I had my first album of S B during the time i had my first Sansui amp. Im now 67 and i was a teenager smoking ,you know what.
A dormmate had a CD that he played every morning. first heard of this track in 76. On my third yr college. I'll be 64 in less than three months 😋😁. Enjoying it even more!
First album I ever bought with my own money as a 14yr old over 40yrs ago... Don't know how many albums, cassettes, and CD copies of this I wore out.... STILL JAMMING this album and turning anyone on to it that I can!
AKICITA such an incredible band savoy is i thought after youlden they couldn’t be that good again and every album after they’ve proved me so wrong! Just wow love all the albums
Damn, these guys are awesome !! Perfect blues/rock !!! Thank you Kim Simmons !!! And the rest of the band on Street Corner Talkin. One of the greatest albums ever !!!! I still have mine !!
@@lisabullock7461 I was 16 when I bought Raw Sienna LP, still have it!! It's a classic, IMO. I'm 67, and still listening and still searching for an answer too, in my lonely room. Their lyrics to some of their songs are still relevant today, "When I Was a Young Boy", "I'm Crying", "Life's a One Act Play", to name a few!!🤔💔😘🎶🌟🎶 Nov.2020
A good friend of mine David Fisher from Lincoln, Nebraska turned me on to Savory Brown over in Germany in 1977. When I think back to the times we had together over there man rest in peace. Me, you Bulldog and Bird Dog ran Stork Barracks. Love Y'all Skeeter Ole Kentuck.
All I can do is cry......I wonder how that feels:). I'm older than oil and I remember when Savoy Brown came out. I saw them in a small venue in Los Angeles. They were awesome. That was before this album but it was still great.
"You've gone away, I'll get by somehow. Just right now all I can do is cry." This is a song you find yourself singing a lot in a lifetime. Since I first heard this I've lost more loves than I care to count.
Saw this performed by SB @ the Paramount theater in Seattle, WA with Tower of Power. The B3 organ seemed to make the dome on the roof expand and contract to the notes. What a FANTASTIC concert!
They were the headliners with Long John Baldry being the opening act and Fleetwood Mac as the second band in Boulder back in the early 70s, wow that was a concert!!!
i remember being stupid little in 08 and getting this vinyl as a gift from a thrift store for 95 cents along with the eagles greatest hits and james browns 20 classics. still keep it on my dresser as a reminder of where my passion for music came from lol.
I Stood approximately 3 feet from Kim in Tampa Florida , He picked up a Beautiful white Fender Stratocaster , He looked like he was a bit worried with me so close , So I stepped back as much as I could which wasn't even a foot , Next thing I noticed , He was turning around and looking at these other guys and upset throwing his hands up in the air , And they didn't have his Strat hooked up properly ! , Then He Lifted up the Guitar and shook it as if He was praying at the same time ! WOW 😲 I Couldn't grasp with what I was seeing ! He could tell I was Stoned , cause my eyes were glassy , But I couldn't step back , Because I Never thought I would get that close to Him This was about 35 years ago In a Outside eating Restaurant , Not a whole lot of Brothers and Sisters there ! But the show was great ! They kept playing new Work I never heard before , That Night watching Kim play in his right witts , Woke me up ! And I can't Remember smoking after that anymore !
Seeing them in a cuplea days in Indio,ca. Outdoors, free concert. Hope its not too hot! Kim’s Welsh, not sure he’s used to 100 degree plus weather! Been listnin to this band since 69 or 70, always been gud!
Dave Walker has some pipes too. I enjoy this era of the band the best. Hellbound Train, So Tired, Shot in the Head, Howling for my Darling, Tell Mama, great stuff. Walker later did an album with Fleetwood Mac, and (oddly enough) was briefly hired to replace Ozzy Osbourne in Black Sabbath around 1977. He only was employed a few weeks, singing on a TV appearance with the band and writing lyrics (which were never used) for the Technical Ecstasy album. He rejoined Savoy Brown in the 1980s and still plays in the Pacific NW USA with his own band the last I heard. Great voice.
