After
forty-five years and hundreds of gigs, Savoy Brown have released their
latest offering, Voodoo Moon, after recently signing with German record
label Ruff Records. The band have become a firm fixture in blues rock
history since they first appeared on the scene in 1965. Over the years
Savoy Brown have featured over one hundred different players, the only
constant being Kim Simmonds (guitar/vocals). When interviewed about the
band’s newest release, Simmonds said, “I believe the songs on Voodoo
Moon are the best I’ve written since the early ‘70s. It is modern blues
rock but with more song orientation than normally associated with the
genre.”
The album is a mix of strong vocals and fabulous
instrumentals - you can’t help but move and shake to the lively “She’s
Got The Heat” or the slower but no less catchy “Shockwaves.” The title
track is full of energy, with a great ‘live’ feel, and the sax on “Look
at the Sun” makes you yearn to catch their next gig. Joe Whiting’s voice
has the perfect mix of emotion and smoothness, amazingly suited to
singing the blues. There’s even a full instrumental - “24/7” - along
with slower, sexy blues in “Natural Man.” The album flows well, and
despite the changing line-up the band sound comfortable playing
together.
Overall, Voodoo Moon is a great mix of classic blues and
British rock & roll, which should please long-time fans & new
listeners alike.
