Savoy Brown
BBC Sessions 1968-05-20 + 1970-06-10 + 1971-01-25

Info:
The 1968-05-20 show is pretty common and was uploaded here before (and is off the tracker, at present), the other two sessions are very rarely circulated and first-timers on Dime. The 1971 session is particularly noteworthy as it features one Pete Scott on vocals in a very short-lived line-up that existed only from January through (probably April) of 1971 and didn't produce any records. Kim soon replaced him with Dave Walker, thereby coninuing their commercially most successful period with their classic albums "Street Corner Talkin'" and "Hellbound Train".

Please note: if anyone has other Beeb sessions, more complete or sonically superior copies of these sessions, please consider STRONGLY an upload here. You bet I and all fellow Savoy Brownatix would really appreciate your efforts A BIG LOT!

Sound quality varies of course with the 1968 show sounding best, and the other two at a quality of around 3/4 out of 6 (vg+/vg++). Sample of 1970 session in comments.
