  • With flamboyant lead vocalist Chris Youlden's decision to quit Savoy Brown's ranks in mid 1970, due in part, or more than in part, due to his heroin use, the remaining quartet pledged to continue purely as a foursome, guitarist Lonesome Dave Peverett assuming Youlden's role as he had occasionally done in the past when his cigar, fur coat and top hat-sporting compatriot was unavailable (see above).

    Just when it seemed the band might finally be making their long overdue international breakthrough, Simmonds broke up the aggregation owing, he told press men, to a difference of opinion over future musical (hard rock) direction. Peverett, Stevens and drummer Roger Earle then assembled their own unit, Foghat, where they were augmented by electric and slide guitarist Rod Price, previously with Shakey Vic's Blues Ensemble and Black Cat Bones.

  • 1970's Looking In is one of this band's best efforts - not one weak track on either side. Kim Simmonds is utterly bewildering on guitar, while Lonesome Dave Peverett does a fine job taking over lead singing duties from Chris Youlden and playing second lead guitar. But it's the captivating driving arrangements and alluring ease of the music that makes this a superb listen. The pleading strain transformed through Simmonds' guitar on "Money Can't Save Your Soul" is mud-thick with raw blues, and the comfort of "Sunday Night" is extremely smooth and laid back. "Take It Easy" sounds are doused with relaxed guitar fingering. The entire album is saturated with heavy-edged British blues sound but the pace and the marbled strands of bubbly instrumental perkiness fill it with life. Even the ripping hard cooking "Leaving Again" is appealing with its infectious hooks, capped off with a heart-stopping guitar solos by LOnesome Dave and Kim Simmonds. This album along with Street Corner Talking best exemplify the early 70's era of Savoy Brown and their tranquilizing style.

  1.                  CONDITION:

  2. Thick GATEFOLD cover is STILL FACTORY SEALED ...this copy is a NICE PERFECT 1970 (((gatefold cover))) never opened in 50 years! NOTE: about 1/2 of the outer cellophane is missing however the half that remains CLEARLY shows to be impossible to pull the record out of the cover as it is still sealed. The exposed part of cover has NO wear, all safe, crisp, rigid and clean...

  3. Just happens to be an incredible HEAVY (blues) ROCK THROBBER - the gatefold cover is 100% CLEAN and NO shelf wear, no bends, no imperfections ANYWHERE! ...The shelf wear IS about always seen on this wear prone cover...(almost all surviving copies have shelf wear on back cover - this front AND back cover is UNTOUCHED under the SEALED outer cellophane ...
  4. Think TWICE about a 50 years ago killer heavy blues rocker and never opened from 1970 . There are no split seams, no bends, no writing and NO delete marks...

  5. The vinyl NEVER touched by human hands -  from 1970
