It's great I was in the store and was unfamiliar with it and all I needed to know was the year. 1972 Great period for them I knew it would be good and I was not disappointed!
Savoy Brown
- Thread starter MRL_Audio
- Start date
When I saw them last year, Kim paid tribute to all the great band members he had worked with over the years. He seems like a humble man and even confessed that he was kind of a jerk when he was just starting out because he was considered a guitar prodigy. He was only 19 when he started Savoy Brown. He said how blessed he was to be able to survive this long in the industry and make a living doing what he loved.

Chrisxo55441 - keep em coming. I have a healthy list of "to gets" based on your postings...
Wells almost dry might have to get a couple more myself
You just had to do that. I dont have any of those now ive got get some
Sticking with the thread i always thought of Kim Simmonds as Savoy Brown as the name follows him and he is still with them. i do love Youlden though just dont think of him as Savoy Brown. Some of Savoy Brown members formed Foghat also and i dont think of them as savoy Brown either but i love Foghat.

Since my first taste of Savoy Brown was "Looking In" I actually associate Lonesome Dave with the band. He's the reason I picked up Foghat. IMO, he was a great vocalist. His voice was full of emotion. Not to say, I didn't develop an appreciation for Youlden as I picked up Savoy Brown's earlier stuff. I liked his voice, too. They were very different vocalists.
No need to apologize he was definitely a big part of the early band and a reason i liked them so much, i only meant his solo career , where as with Simmonds i only think of him as Savoy Brown even as a solo artist.
I like the years when Youlden and Lonesome Dave were in the band best and after they left it kinda became Kim Simmonds and his band, thats probably the reason they left in the first place. But i still love Kim Simmonds
Raw Sienna is in my top 2 favorite albums ever and Stay while the night is young is my favorite song on that album and it is Youlden song absolutely love it.

^^^ now that was a concert! ^^^
Thanks for mentioning Boogie Brothers i just got it today and am liking it. the concert you saw sounds better then the one i saw in 71 The Faces, Savoy Brown, and The Grease Band at the met center in bloomington MN ( now occupied by the mall of america) but it was great none the less.
Forgot to mention, the 3 lead guitar players actually came out in the audience and played. That was in the pre-wireless age when they used long cables held up by the road crew.
