2 out of 5 stars Savoy Beige!.......2003-10-01

There comes a time in the life and career of every artist when the great Muse that stokes his creative fire fails to ignite. For Kim Simmonds, founder-director of Savoy Brown and architect behind more successful albums than many bands in the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame (where he belongs), that time was 1992, and the album was Let It Ride. That great singer Dave Walker had just left the band for the second (and probably last) time, and Kim was once again left to his own devices. As always, he gave it his best effort, but most of the tracks sound like outtakes from sessions by The Black Crows rather than music from one of the most influential blues-rock bands of all time. Luckily, the record isn't a total loss: the instrumental cover of Bill Wither's classic "Ain't No Sunshine" shimmers like a polished jewel in sunlight. As the rest of the album isn't even worth discussing, I'll say no more. Within a few years, Kim would tear down his creative stonewall and once again write and record music worthy of the name Savoy Brown. Please buy several of his better efforts, whether old (Street Corner Talking, Getting to the Point) or new (Blues Keep Me Holding On, Strange Dream). You won't be sorry. But unless you have to have a copy of everything Kim Simmonds recorded, I feel safe in saying you can pass this album by.
