This came out in 1999 – or at least that’s when I got it. Here’s what I said about it back then (with some minor editing):
Over the years, Savoy Brown founder and sole surviving member Kim Simmonds has had more bandmates than John Popper has had midnight snacks.
This latest incarnation is a trio, if that matters. But what really matters isn’t that Simmonds can’t hold on to members; it’s that he hasn’t lost his touch. Nearly three decades after Street Corner Talkin’ and Hellbound Train, Kim still has the chops to handle all three points of the blues trinity: Smoky Chicago workouts, funky Texas rockers and haunting Mississippi dirges. Sure, he’s basically been rewriting the same songs for the last 25 years. But he does a pretty fair job of it.
