SAVOY BROWN ‘STREET CORNER TALKING’ ORIGINAL 1971 1ST ISSUE 1ST DECCA PRESSING IN GATEFOLD SLEEVE


Sleeve Condition: Near Mint, free from stickers, tears, writing, creases, defect and damage.  Crisp, sharp corners; a superb example! Comes complete with the original Decca inner.


Record Condition: Near Mint, in fact most I am sure, would list this as Mint.  There is no evidence of play, the record is unmarked with a flawless bloom still on the vinyl and the spindle hole is free of any kind of centring marks Record plays perfectly.  There really can’t be another one out there in this condition.  Buyer will not be disappointed.


This is actually quite a rare, Decca + gatefold sleeve, first UK issue.  Given its astonishingly well preserved condition, it is practically unique.  It even still has the original Decca inner sleeve.


I have other original UK pressed Savoy Brown LPs currently listed.  Please check out my other listings.


Street Corner Talking, one of Savoy Brown's finest moments. Gelling almost instantaneously, Walker's cozy yet fervent voice countered with Simmonds' strong, sturdy guitar playing, and an exuberant mixture of British blues and boogie rock prevailed. All of Street Corner Talking's efforts are solid examples of the group's blues-rock power, from the slick cover of Willie Dixon's "Wang Dang Doodle" to the deep feel of "All I Can Do" to the subtle strength of "Tell Mama," Walker's best-sung tune. The album's blend of sultry guitar blues and upfront rock & roll flavor give it a multi-faceted appeal, with every musician contributing his talents uniformly, which is something that's rather difficult to achieve after there's been a wholesale change to the personnel.
