heard these guys in the 70's and still continue. Love this song. This music ain't for the cookie cutter mass produce liking folks out there. No super bowl gigs for Savoy Brown....they are the real deal.

I consider myself to be in an exclusive club of Savoy Brown fans. Such an awesome group. The more I delve into their music IM FAMILIAR WITH--keep finding there is much more music from them than I was ever aware of. I'm ONE of the Special few! My first introduction was Street Corner Talkin' album. Love this band.

So sorry to read that guitarist Kim Simmonds, who was a great influence on my own guitar playing for over 50 years, has passed away just about 9 days ago on the 13th of this month just almost a week after his 75th birthday which was on the 5th. RIP Kim Simmonds ..5th December 1947 - 13th December 2022...thank you Kim Simmonds for all the great Blues/Blues Rock music ypu provided thru out my life and lead guitar lessons I got listening to you on Savoy Brown records over and over to learn how to play lead guitar in the 60s in my early teens and helped me learn the basics of the pentatonic scales as a young guitarist growing up in the 60s and influenced my own playing snd understanding of the fretboard for decades affter...RIP Guitar Maestro Kim Simmonds...

❤❤❤ Ich liebe diese Band über alles 😊😊😊 R. I. P . Kim 😢😢😢

Great stuff from an under appreciated band ! This music STILL kills it 💥 ....happily, Kim Simmonds is still with us....and better than ever !

Sounds simple and easy, doesn't it. Simmonds is an unsung talent. Some of the best rock/blues you're ever going to hear. He's morphed throughout the years -- for the better.

took my Volkswagen Bus from Germany al the way to Turkey and back over Greece and listen only to Savoy Brown one album after the next and al over again was a fantastic trip way back then in the 70s wish could do it again ha ha

Love this song! Savoy Brown was one of the bands that I listened to in my EARLY teens, in smoky basement bedrooms!

I saw them in 1972 with lang John Baldry and Fleetwood Mac in Elgin Illinois while on leave from a 14 month "I got drafted" inspired vacation in Asia..unbelievable concert and show..just saw Kim Simmonds with the his latest incarnation of Savoy Brown at the Aggie Theater in Fort Collins Colorado just about 18 months ago or so. And that was a great intimate small/medium sized venue concert experience to enjoy a Savoy Brown/Kim Simmonds concert/show..

Ya can't go wrong with Savoy Brown! ;-)

A masterpiece of guitar solo imo.

Beautiful version of a soul classic well known in the voice of The Temptations. Savoy Brown is a fantastic band.

Thanks Tom :) My sis stole my Street Corner Talking album a few years ago..I bought that new -back in the 70's- well then someone stole it from her shortly after that ha! What goes around comes around.. Sure missed this music there are no equals. I bought the cd a couple of years ago but there are tracks missing. Ah such is life!

Every time i hear this album i think of doing LSD back in the day.. Some things just bring you back,.Minneapolis was a hip town back in the day..

loves me some SB !

remember the Boston Common and the Cambridge Common? Where you could get a sack for ten bucks and it was better than dirt weed. And only 10 or 15 for a large amount. Never again. What a effed up world we live in today, much to my regret. It's all about the mney, and the profit. Not about the soul. Damn.

This band is and has become very intriguing to me because every song and every version of is a journey threw time and the talent that passed threw this band is amazing . Hugely under appreciated for all the influences that have been placed as well. Dave Walker is my favorite but I love them all , Mr Simmonds is a true gentleman and the best guitarist on the planet ! Since you've been gone with Dave Walker singing is my all time favorite

OH ya..feel like a care free young man ...real music here...

Had the LP and now can listen to this great group on this laptop. Great sound!

Another great one by SB!

I love it

Very good BLUES...!!!...

Kim Simmons and Lonesome Dave... what a pair bluesmen from England. Dave went on to Foghat, as you may remember. I caught Kim at an Air Force Base show in 1977, if I remember correctly. The group played on a flat bed trailer and we were all sitting on the ground in the dark. Great performance, it seemed as though I was the only one who knew the songs as most of my contemporaries weren't into blues at the time. I listened to the Bluesbreakers and of course, Chickenshack; later known as Peter Green's version of Fleetwood Mac. FOR SALE and HELLBOUND TRAIN are a bit bluesier than St Corner Talking... gotta love the artwork on that cover too!

Saw these cats at the Yale in Vancouver. Awesome!!

This is close to the Al Green version (my own preferred groove on this one).

We all listened to the Temptations back then, but if I was going out on the town for blues and beer, I would much rather hear the Al Green/Savoy Brown styling of this one. Oh, but don't even think about it if you don't have B3 keys -- can't get next to that.

Great Grooves.

Thank you always love them! :)

At the WareHouse1972 ( I think ) with the DOOBE Brother, long time ago. Still Rocking to Street Corner Talking, GREAT LP.

The best version

I first saw Savoy Brown opening up for Status Quo in Liverpool, UK "The Stadium" in 1972!!!! ... I remember the guitarist playing a gold top Les Paul at the time.

great but lacking the immediacy of the temptations version, bought this back in 1971 and got kim simmonds to sign it for me in 'dallas, texas. i feel sorry for those that live in muleshoe, hard to get autographs there.

They slept on my floor more than once in the 60,s , had to go to US to make good
