Nothing like a train ride back to the early 70's to get some fresh groovin' sounds

I saw these guys at a small gig at a school in Bristol in 1973, I couldn't see the stage so some kind taller lad just hoisted me up on his shoulders, got a brilliant view. I was about 4 foot nothing. They were on with a band called Trapeze and both sets were really good.

Reminds me of old groups like 10 Years After and Quicksilver Messenger Service ....................

scads of vinyl albums, dozens of songs, and maybe ......... oh ........... maybe 2 or 3 that actually were worth listening to.

Being in the audience at a concert and being stoned out of your gourd helped.

Great - but is does sound a bit like very early Marc Bolan played at 33 and not 45...

You know, I own a couple of their vinyls ... and now I remember why I haven't listened to them in a long while.

Um, there's plenty of snare. The drummer is just using brushes instead of sticks.

{#Iamwithstupid} But I'm wondering why you refer to Simmons as "Kenny." Also, It's John Mayall, folks.

You've got great taste kh
Street Corner Talking is my favorite album of all time
I saw Kenny and the boys in a shithole in Omaha 3 years ago
John Mayall and Savoy Brown opened my ears to "British Blues" back in the late 60's

And with good reason: they both took us to wonderful places!  Savoy Brown were part of the British Blues pantheon, deservedly so.

It's the trip that matters, not the destination...

Anyway, Savoy Brown have their very own room in the panteon of blues.

Very strange, in the cut played yesterday I heard Jimi Hendrix. This song - no way. I am confused.

I first heard this song when I bought the album "Blue Matter" off a mark down bin for $1 in 1969-70 when I was a kid living in El Paso, TX... there wasn't much of a following for them there at that time. (Jeeze was that a long time ago!) Song still holds up to my taste.
