The first CD of the two CD sets is becoming my favorite and is totally different from any thing they did going forward, for one big reason and that is Kim Simmonds was neither the lead singer or guitarist . Brice Portius was right on with the vocals and with Martin Stone on lead Guitarist lead the way. As a result the band had the slow Chicago blues down to a tee. uThe second Album, Getting to the Point, is more typical of the Savoy Brown we came to love over the years. With Simmonds and Youlder replacing Portius and Stone as the face and leaders of the band, they started to progess to the more Boogie style that they are know for. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars If you like that old time rock and roll... *by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2022* Quintessential British stoner jam blues. Dude, you want this record. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars shakedown/getting to the point *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2008* Two discs approximately 41 min. each. Remastered. Savoy Brown was never as popular as other British blues groups of the sixties-groups like John Mayall,Fleetwood Mac,or any other first run groups. They were more of a second tier group like Chicken Shack or Groundhogs. Savoy Brown became popular in America later on in their career as a "boogie" band-with all the good and bad that entails. Having said that,their first few albums fit in with the '60's blues boom then in fashion in England. The first album Shake Down was especially immediate-in your face-sounding. The songs consisted mainly of covers written by well-known blues artists like Willie Dixon John Lee Hooker and the like. The instrumental The Doormouse Rides The Rails gives guitarist Martin Stone a chance to shine. The lead singer Brice Portius is adequate-neither great nor bad. The rhythm section is what you would expect from this time. A combination of slow blues and a few shuffles make up this recording. Only on the last song does the group show a tendency to stretch out in a "boogie" like style that they would go on to make popular in America,which is to bad. For those of you interested in British groups in this style I would recommend you pick up this disc. It was never originally released in America and had to be bought as an import.The second album Getting To The Point,was a continuation of the first as far as the British blues sound. With a new singer on board,Chris Youlden,Savoy Brown's sound became a bit more distinctive. Martin Stone had left to join Mighty Baby and the rhythm section had changed too. Most of the songs are now being written by the team of Youlden/Simmonds (the band's new lead guitarist). As before it is a combination of fast and slow blues,with an instrumental to show what Kim Simmonds could do.This album and the next few would follow the same path. Only later would Savoy Brown descend into "boogie" excess that became popular and thus spell the end of their truly blues playing days. All in all I would say buy these two albums if you're a fan of British blues or sixties music from England in general. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shake Down / Getting To The Point - Blue Matter / A Step Further - Raw Sienna / Looking In --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/42067701-shake-down-getting-to-the-point](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/42067701-shake-down-getting-to-the-point) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
