This is one of the few guitar riffs I learned when I first got into guitar in my late teens early twenties. I'm still playing it... fifty years later...
Omg me too...i used to stay home and smoke joints and look for hours at them. Santanas was great...savoy brown...thsts who im listening too now.. Street corner talking
This album was pivotal to my growth as a musician. Bonus! I played in a backup band "Blues Obituary" who opened for Savoy Brown at Goddard College in Vermont in the early 70s. Great memory
loved this album so much I have owned 2 copies because I played the first one to death. lol I'd buy it again, even though DVD doesn't sound as good as vinyl.
You’re right . It took quite a bit of tweaking to bring out the presence nearing the fidelity of a Shure V-15 and pristine vinyl , dual mono-block amp, and Klipsch La Scala theatre speakers, goosebumps!!!!!
Ahhhh yes! Back when music was MUSIC!!! This is the first album I ever bought, at 13 yrs old in 1976, and after several re purchases in several formats, still loving it today!
Classic in EVERY sense of the word. These guys were fucking awesome. Simple. Love this album cover.............music has lost so much over the yrs. Man......all ya gotta do is listen, and look. Thanks, C.
nowadays if you aint rappin or dancin nude with fireworks goin off and lights a flashin you aint nuthin. back in the day all that stuff was going off in your mind and soul while the music was playin
rangersidekick you know, in the move alexander 2004 version, ptolemy was citing his memoirs to the scribes, and he stated....how can i tell youwhat it was like to be young and dream then......I have the same difficulty talking to the young musicians who are shred speed freaks and low bass chords aficianados. I love reading the comments on some of the youtube downloads of the music from our day, because it gives a ray of hope for the younger artists that appreciate that earlier sound and feel the power and soul given by music from that era. The aura of that time, the colors, the thought provoking content that the music inspired, the clothing styles the fragrances of the defferent herbs and incense. Was a truly great time to be alive in spite of all the turmoil. Thank you for your reply
Introduced to them at the Bath Festival of Blues - 1970. Worked my over to England on a ship at age 19...what a freakin' idiot, how would a kid growing up in NYC thing anything was wrong with that gig??? It actually was a real cool experience, especially in Holland where the policemen told you where the hash bars where.
We see Dave Walker during the summer playing at the Wells Fargo steak house on Fridays in Virginia City MT . Interestingly enough he doesn’t play any Savory Brown songs . Still a cool cat .
Street Corner Talking Lyrics Kim Simmonds-Chrysalis Music Ltd. Came to the city, left my happy home Came to the city, left my happy home But I didn't do right, learned my lessons wrong Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do If you can't get a job, council will take of you It's the same what a shame, no matter where you go It's the same what a shame, no matter where you go People wonder what to do, too much time for me and you Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do If you can't get a job, council will take of you
Real music. Many days and nights smok'in dope and drink'in beer with friends play'in this album. Wikipedia says that David Anstey did the cover art but it looks more like Robert Crumb.
Great album. In the 70's, when on tour, they would always go to Austin to play at the Armadillo. Always high energy straight from the Heart. All their album covers were great works of art by David Anstey. Little Feat's album covers by Neon Park are also awesome. That is one reason I have kept all my vinyl records. A CD cover offers an area less than one fifth of an album. That dinky format just doesn't do their art any justice.
Their best album. All their work with Dave Walker was top notch. Kim's still out there doin' it too. I've met him a few times. Good man. Of their later stuff I like the "Strange Dreams" album. Savoy Brown is still one of my top 5 favorite bands.
Hellbound Train(Dead Stop) with Lost And Lonely Child living with the world of screams, right up there with Feel all right with the needle and spoon Savoy Brown / Foghat defectors Splentacularlicious
Kim Simmonds, one of the great Blues rock players. This entire album is excellent. A minor masterpiece.
Major masterpiece Saw this tour
This is one of the few guitar riffs I learned when I first got into guitar in my late teens early twenties. I'm still playing it... fifty years later...
Scrumptious Melody and beautiful guitar work glad you're catching on and playing it
Me too!
You aren’t the only one. The reason is because IT’S BADASS!!!
Was a time music stood alone as entertainment in contrast to so much of the noise that passes today. These guys smoked.
I don't know if this is just me. Seems to remind me of Fleetwood Mac in the Peter Green Era. Very clean soulful. Deserve way more recognition.
Another one of those classic songs where that 'riff' just stays in your head.
Folks that were part of the 'Savoy Brown" cult in 69/70 knew we were special for diggin' this music. We were the true Hippies!!
cant even begin how many time me & friends partied to this record in the days man still kicks!
I had the vinyl record for this song. Recorded it to Maxell cassette tape, not reel to reel tape.
I can't believe Kim is gone.........Rest In Peace 😮💨
i miss album covers!!
D Bruckshen : I do too. spent many a day and night reading liner notes........
Check out an old company called Hipgnosis. They did some real beauties for a lot of good bands.
i got this album when i was 14. now i am 68 and its great !
Omg me too...i used to stay home and smoke joints and look for hours at them. Santanas was great...savoy brown...thsts who im listening too now.. Street corner talking
Wonderful song even after all these years, Go KIm! RIP
I got to see these guys at Liberty Hall in Houston, Tx. in the 1970s. Will never forget it.
Saw them at the Colosseum ,twice.
This album was pivotal to my growth as a musician. Bonus! I played in a backup band "Blues Obituary" who opened for Savoy Brown at Goddard College in Vermont in the early 70s. Great memory
This came out when blues was blues. A great song by a great band!
Savoy Brown---------Smokin!!!!!!
I love this song from this amazing album lost in time. Thanks for sharing it with everyone.
Loved this album, made me high many times listening to it.
Me too...
loved this album so much I have owned 2 copies because I played the first one to death. lol I'd buy it again, even though DVD doesn't sound as good as vinyl.

R.I.P. The late great Kim Simmonds Dec. 13, 2022.

Lions Share is my favorite but this is probably their best album top to bottom
Me too
Boston...........late 76, street side bars 3,4 o'clock in the morn Savoy Brown was there!
One of the "stranded on an island and only have 10 albums". Timeless
What a clear, clean, uncompressed download. Thanks a million. Now I gotta buy new speakers.No, really. Thank you for this one.
Curt Manners Yep you’re as right as rain, man o man it ain’t ever comin’ back.🎶 loved it then love it now.
Ahhhh yes!
Back when music was MUSIC!!!
This is the first album I ever bought, at 13 yrs old in 1976, and after several re purchases in several formats, still loving it today!
My next two albums were Hellbound Train & Looking In! :)
@@AKICITA I was in the John m a y a l l English Blues with all these guitarists Etc
👍Before auto tune when people had to actually HAVE TALENT !
This is THE BEST SONG EVERRRR
Looooooove this.Memories of hearing this line up doing this LIVE ,is all that's keep'n me sane.
Great album most people have forgotten .
Don't forget "A Step Further".All the cuts are incredible.I played the heck out of both these,but the one mentioned primed my pump.
I remember when this came out! Very popular for a long time.
I saw these guys in 1972 in Hazelton Pa what a show
Album art was so great!
Savoy Brown is going to be the headliner band at the 2016 Julian Blues Bash near San Diego, CA. Already bought my ticket!
❤ Dave walkers vocals ❤
Very Claptonesque
Still rocks 2022
Wang Dang Doodle always did it for me!
RIP Paul Raymond.
Kim Simmons is trill touring . We see him every other year here in Michigan. Still sounds great .
1971 central theater Passaic NJ. With Atomic Rooster...concert venues for our entertainment...the Capitol theater had a run from 1971-1984.....
Classic in EVERY sense of the word. These guys were fucking awesome. Simple. Love this album cover.............music has lost so much over the yrs. Man......all ya gotta do is listen, and look. Thanks, C.
Amazing sound. Amazing band.
nowadays if you aint rappin or dancin nude with fireworks goin off and lights a flashin
you aint nuthin.
back in the day all that stuff was going off in your mind and soul while the music was playin
pleximars you are right on that one, as the late Bob Welch said "music is disposable now", that is very sad :(
rangersidekick you know, in the move alexander 2004 version, ptolemy was citing his memoirs to the scribes, and he stated....how can i tell youwhat it was like to be young and dream then......I have the same difficulty talking to the young musicians who are shred speed freaks and low bass chords aficianados.

pleximars You could not have said it better. It was all about the music!
Mark Brown thank you Mark, i appreciate your comment.
Any Savoy Brown fan is OK in my book.
And an eloquent one at that!
favorite band
1st concert i ever went to, fan forever.
Introduced to them at the Bath Festival of Blues - 1970. Worked my over to England on a ship at age 19...what a freakin' idiot, how would a kid growing up in NYC thing anything was wrong with that gig???

awesome riff. great album ☝️
love the cover display,thanks for posting.
Great album, "Tell Mamma" Can't get next to you babe" I think were the memorable tunes on it.
Love that funky riiff . Would have loved to have made the London club scene in the late 60s.
straight ahead rock & roll, blues till you drop
Everyone I turn on to this loves it. Just a badass blues jam.
Digging deep into my 70s rock music. Far out!
jeeze louis still love this. Kim Still sounds fine and hope to se him live again on feb 7th
This rif has been in my mind's arsenal of catchy tunes since i was 5
Love this song and album
Great album
I bought the lp brand new but it had a skip in it so I had to take it back remember those days? He gave me a Savoy Brown looking in as a gift
I bought this back when it came out just for the cover. When I played it, I couldn't believe it....
Did Funkadelic sample this. Some funky shit bruh. Feel me
Masterpiece!!!!!
Timeless Music . .
To me this music is the real deal
We see Dave Walker during the summer playing at the Wells Fargo steak house on Fridays in Virginia City MT . Interestingly enough he doesn’t play any Savory Brown songs . Still a cool cat .
I Miss The Album Covers To Some Of Them Made Bad Ass Tattoos
Flashbacks ain't no joke
One More From My bands Play list 1970 Mr.V :)
For white blokes across the pond they played some damn fine blues
Street Corner Talking Lyrics
Kim Simmonds-Chrysalis Music Ltd.
Came to the city, left my happy home
Came to the city, left my happy home
But I didn't do right, learned my lessons wrong
Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do
Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do
If you can't get a job, council will take of you
It's the same what a shame, no matter where you go
It's the same what a shame, no matter where you go
People wonder what to do, too much time for me and you
Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do
Street Corner Talking, wonder what I'm gonna do
If you can't get a job, council will take of you
When I first heard this song the vocals reminded me of Eric Clapton
Real music. Many days and nights smok'in dope and drink'in beer with friends play'in this album. Wikipedia says that David Anstey did the cover art but it looks more like Robert Crumb.
this song is the definition of cool. can't remember were a couple of these guys involved with foghat ?
Did he play with steely dan for a minute? Seems like it. Son tells me I'm old and confused
Great album. In the 70's, when on tour, they would always go to Austin to play at the Armadillo. Always high energy straight from the Heart. All their album covers were great works of art by David Anstey. Little Feat's album covers by Neon Park are also awesome. That is one reason I have kept all my vinyl records. A CD cover offers an area less than one fifth of an album. That dinky format just doesn't do their art any justice.
For more of their greatness spool up "A Step Further",an earlier released album,and the one that made me a big fan.
🙏 for share!!!
1977...🥰
My endless fascination with BRIT bands never ends!! They were just naturally cooler.....
Ok I lived every word in this song like sleeping and breathing eating and yes getting a little high
Fuckin kick as lick
album covers were great to break up an ounce !
so many seeds back then...
Yes!
That Kim Simmons on that guitar is so nasty.
Lp released Sept 18, 1971
R.I.P.
❤

Lost classic!
Go see him people.Regret is a terrible ghost.....
RIP Kim Simmonds 12.13.22
Street corner talking wonder what I'm gonna do

I put Lookin In and Raw Sienna above this album
I'll take this song and 'All I Can Do' if I had to take just two.

@@Circuit7Active raw sienna for certain,too bad Chris was the vocalist for such a short time,Walker is good but Chris' voice just oozes the blues
