SAVOY BROWN/BLUE MATTER LK4994 (-69) UK MONO

Their third album and one of the most successful. At this time the band had a bigger following in the States and was scheduled for a tour there. They didn´t have time to fill the album with sudio tracks so they recorded a concert at Leicester college and made the album a mix of studio and live recordings. "Live" side is OK, but the studio tracks is really something new here - elaboratedly raw with disted guitars and "dark" backing it gives a true authentic feeling. Produced by Mike Vernon and maybe the whole feeling derives from the fact it was done under stress, but it truly fits. This sounds like a fold down, but it's a good one since mono accentuates the harshness. US first issue on Parrot (PAS71024)(SÄVX*)(YMÖ*)
