Not sure how I missed it, but I just noticed that Savoy Brown singer-guitarist (and sole permanent member) Kim Simmonds died last week. I only saw them once. It was nearly 40 years ago, in a local bar where they were playing several nights in a row. They were fine, I guess. Too be honest, I don’t remember much about the show. But I remember going to work a few days later — I was a cop reporter at the time — to find that their touring bassist du jour was in court after being caught shoplifting at a local department store. I don’t remember exactly what he stole, but I think it was something vaguely embarrassing like a cheap women’s bracelet or ring. Lucky for him, the judge was in a good mood and let him go with a warning since they were leaving town. I thought about trying to interview him, but I figured he was probably in enough trouble with the boss already. Anyway, that’s my Savoy Brown story. Hope you liked it. Somehow, I suspect you’ll like these 63 singles, videos, cover tunes, remixes, golden oldies, live clips and holiday tunes just a little more. Your Tinnitist-approved tracks are tagged with a 💍.
