Savoy Brown, originally known as the Savoy Brown Blues Band, are a British blues band formed in 1966, in Battersea, South West London.[1] Part of the late 1960s blues rock movement, Savoy Brown never achieved as much success in their homeland as they did in the United States, where they promoted their albums with non-stop touring.[1]
Career
The band was formed and led by guitarist Kim Simmonds, whose dominating personality led to a myriad of personnel changes.[1] The original line-up included singer Bryce Portius, keyboardist Bob Hall, fellow guitarist Martin Stone, bassist Ray Chappell, and drummer Leo Manning. Portius was one of the first black blues musicians to be a part of a British rock band. This line-up appeared on the band’s 1967 debut album, Shake Down, a collection of blues covers.[1]
Their 1969 single « Train to Nowhere » (with singer Chris Youlden), was viewed by many as the last gasp of the blues scene in the United Kingdom. They developed a loyal core following in the United States, due to songs such as « I’m Tired », a driving, melodic song from their album, A Step Further. They were one of the bands that UK Decca (US London/Parrot) stuck with through the lean times until they started selling records (it took four or five albums until they started to sell in the U.S.) In the late 1960s and 1970s, the band managed to penetrate the Billboard Hot 100. Superstardom perpetually evaded them, perhaps in part because of their frequent line-up changes, but despite that, Hellbound Train (1972) was a Top 40 album for them in the U.S.

why are there so few listeners for savoy brown... tell mama, louisiana blues are great blues classics, also their version of wang dang doodle is so great... you can't help imagine yourself inside a smoke filled bar drinking whiskey , the vocalist himself sounds drunk and having a severe bout with the colds :D

My old man used to play Jack the Toad so often that I memorized most of the songs. Always thought they defined 70s funk.
