In 1968 Tony Stevens joined Kim Simmonds’ Savoy Brown, creating several slabs of blues rock mastery for the ages. Alongside Simmonds (guitars), Chris Youlden (vocals), Roger Earl (drums) and ‘Lonesome’ Dave Peverett (guitars/vocals), bassist Stevens co-authored albums like 1969’s Blue Matter, A Step Further and Raw Sienna, and 1970’s Looking In.
By ’71, though, the classic lineup had fallen apart – and Stevens went on to form Foghat with Earl, Peverett and newcomer Rod Price. Success came quickly, with 1972’s Foghat and 1974’s Energized notable high points in their output.
