Raw Sienna is the fifth album by the band Savoy Brown. It was recorded and released by Decca in the United Kingdom 1970 in both mono and stereo (LK/SKL 5043). For release in United States and Canada, masters were leased to Parrot Records (London Records)—PAS 71036.
AllMusic noted that
Unfortunately, leader Kim Simmonds lost his greatest asset when vocalist Chris Youlden quit for an ill-fated solo career after this recording. Youlden had one of the most distinctive voices in British blues.[2]
