Maybe Savoy Brown line up changed too often, so vote in Kim Simmonds as sole artist. This guy has got to be in.

Caught Kim & Savoy Brown live this month. 50 years and still jammin. Great show, and puzzles me as to why Kim isn't in the R&R HOF. 26 studio albums with SB, 4 solo. Maybe there isn't one version of Savoy Brown that has lasted long enough, but many musicians have sharpened their trade there. He is mentioned as one of the top blues-rock guitarists. I nominate Kris as a solo artist.

Kim Simmonds is one of the greatest and most enduring blues/rock guitarists that came thru the British Invasion. Total shame and sham that Kim & Savoy Brown hasn't been inducted

Savoy Brown will not be inducted into the HOF.
In the same boat is 10 Years After
Respectable U.K. blues rockers, but not enough “umph” to merit induction.
John Mayall may get a nomination. (Paul Butterfield Blues Band made the cut...why not Mayall?)

Another "head in the sand" non-decision by the RnRHoF. So many albums, so little U.S. airplay. That should NOT disqualify them. Personnel changes did not diminish their quality or output. Even spawned other great bands (e.g., Foghat). What's the problem, RnRHoF? Got hardening of the ear drums? Or just the brain?

Saw savoy brown in 1971 what a great band played for over 3 hours what a shame for the band not to be recognized by hall of fame

Saw them in '60s with Chris and in '70s with both Daves. Kim is a god, albeit unheralded.
