"Upon the Detroit return of Savoy Brown at Eastown...The chanting began...growing stronger and stronger-“Savoy Brown” and “The Boogie, The Boogie!”-until finally the sound had become a roar. “THE BOOGIE!” Yes, we all had heard “The Boogie,” but not just heard it, we knew it, for the album on which it appeared was a staple of any Motor-City music collection, owned by it seemed everyone in attendance. Savoy Brown had immortalized in vinyl their dedication of this song to Detroit, and this fact was akin to the band now hearing our call. The curtains slowly parted in a hypnotic glaze, the colorful venue lights increasing in illumination to match our own enthusiasm. Deafening cheers bellowed out, and in magical unison we were all suddenly up on our feet, our screams surely loud enough to be heard throughout the entire city. The band opened with their first number…" Riding The Sky ~ Mischa
Even the name "Savoy Brown" is 60's cool, they ARE pure rock & roll. Chris Youlden's long asides to the audience stir the crowd into a frenzy. Boogie 'til the break of dawn. In Edmonton! uhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh
Ah...it was the late 60's, so many good bands, and the really good ones all had a 10 or 12 minute "boogie jam" track. There was the Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Love, Cream, Aum, Fleetwood Mac, (the Peter Green years,) Ten Years After, Savoy Brown, and my personal favorite, Canned Heat. I still own all this vinyl, I guess I will until it's time for my final Boogie!
I was so so so into this band when I was 15 in 1969 - Kim Simmonds one of the most underated guitar players out there till today.... He was fantastic!!!!
"Dedicated to the people of Detroit." I was there at The Grande Ballroom, which is what he is singing about. We loved them there. And they loved it there, too.
so was I . There wasnt a band that could beat them as far as driving the crowd nuts. I remember walking out of the Grande drenched in sweat. Good times.
Detroit rolled out the RED carpet for this band! .. Was not able to see their Grande concerts, but they did a FREE concert near Plum Street back in the day in my home town.
Around '70 i guess,saw Savoy Brown and the Faces ( with Rod Stewart )at the Stanley Theater in Jersey City.Savoy Brown came on first,finished with an awesome boogie (audience was up and jumping and stomping and boogien')and they OWNED the show.Faces came on after them and tho they were real good they never quite captured the audience.Savoy Brown ruled that evening,tremendous performance!
I love this Lp..."I'm Tired" "Life's One Act Play" "Louisiana Blues" Savoy Brown "Boogie" and their next Lp BLUE MATTER...can anyone remember when they busted up what bands came out of them?? I keep thinking Foghat, ya think? I'm 60 and my memory fails me lol & :-/ but ♥ ♫ :)
Saw this great band Savoy Brown play in San Francisco in '69. Myself & my buds all thought Chris Yolden's cigar was actually a blunt. It just might have been.
I've always liked this album. I would have liked a studio version of this track even more. Remastered with better sound quality and stereo effect. I usually play it LOUD!!
The best Boogie ever. Wore out the the flip side of this album pretty quick (Boogie SIDE TWO). Ahhh the memories of ramping up the volume and well and truly pissing my parents off :-)
cant get enough of itthis will cure cancer that opening riff kills it!!!!!!! wheres my wine honey pass that bottle to me im an alcoholic for kim tone dave rodger lets jam im ready for u hope u are ready for me!!!!!
This brings back some really good memories of going to my best friend house, going down to his basement and turning it up while playing his set of drums. We always sounded as good as they did.
When I was young... Hamburg > Germany > End of the 70ths > Dawn of the 80ths > Discotheque´ "Gruenspan" > St. Pauli > Each Friday + Saturday deep at night > Unforgettable....! M*U*S*T* *H*A*V*E !
De lo mejor de Savoy Brown, aquellos años hermosos de la juventud nunca jamas regresaran, solo recuerdos quedan, pero el espiritu de aquellos años no se olvida y a pesar de la edad trascendera ese recuerdo hasta el ultimo minuto o aliento que quede, hasta el infinito. asi sea.
@LordSauceness I have "A Step Further" on vinyl. I bought the CD just to crank it through some 350 Watters!! One of the few albums I have that I used to listen to the entire side!! Let the neighbors get over it.
Shoulda cranked to 10...At age 62, I still more or less do the same thing with my twin Vox Super Beatles... Girlfriend not impressed nor are the neighbours...Ah, but what the hell....
Too bad this was never recorded in the Studio!! Would have been some ass kickin' tracks!! Up-loaded the CD to a computer and play it through a Pioneer system with 4 - 350 watt KLH speakers. It will shake the house!! (and damn near make your ears bleed!)

The glorious Blues & Rock of the 60's, 70's will NEVER be beaten for every genre of music.
Those of us who lived it knew it was a special era.
Rest in peace Kim.
We enjoyed the time you spent booging in our town!
Detroit was definitely your second home!

What a great song..it's been 40 years since I heard it. Great Live band! As was their offshoot, Foghat
I’m 65 and a half ., these guys Original Savoy Brown .Still .. This recorded Boogie always in my head .the Band nailed it
If you are a Chris Youlden fan u can see him singing in a pub a couple of years ago.Despite his age the voice is still there.
"Dedicated to the people of Detroit." I was there at The Grande Ballroom, which is what he is singing about. We loved them there. And they loved it there, too.
I was a little too young for the Grande era. That was historic.
All the Rockin bands loved Detroit back in the day...it was a fucking fabulous hard rockin town! ❤
so was I . There wasnt a band that could beat them as far as driving the crowd nuts. I remember walking out of the Grande drenched in sweat. Good times.
Detroit rolled out the RED carpet for this band! .. Was not able to see their Grande concerts, but they did a FREE concert near Plum Street back in the day in my home town.
I was at the The Cooks Ferry Inn, London, on the night they recorded this in 1969. I saw them many times around that time.
❤❤❤ Ich liebe diese Band über alles!!!😊😊😊

No way! This is unadulterated, handmade history. Your heritage. Preserve it and cherish it.
The best Boogie ever. Wore out the the flip side of this album pretty quick (Boogie SIDE TWO). Ahhh the memories of ramping up the volume and well and truly pissing my parents off :-)
Cool music!
Chris Youlden is one of the GREAT vocalists....wicked cool.
Never loses it’s heart and soul

It was 1970 I remember this bar I use to hang out in West Long beach,the whole bar would be jammin to this.
Dat's a nice boogie.
You only live once, so you might as well BOOGIE!

FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC FANTASTIC
'Lonesome' Dave Peverett, Tony Stevens and Roger Earl formed Foghat with Rod Price after they split following 'Looking In'
saw these guys 1970 and they tore it up when music was good
blast from the past, hard rockin
Hard to beat the HEAT. re Refried
I like this song, but this 1/4 of the song. The full full-length is 22 min.
BOOJIE!!!
British dude sounds straight from the Delta, love it! How'd he do that? Anyway, when I listen to this song I have to move, no way to keep still
got to boogie to the break of dawn
Saw they at Filmore east. WOW
I'm pretty sure Foghat's the band,that's Lonesome Dave" down in the left hand corner of photo
Well said! but let's not forget John Lee Hooker--the Boogie Godfather
ace
This is so cool!
Pre Foghat!
rock and roll yeah
this band became foghat without kim & chris
