Britain before the Beatles is generally regarded as an era in which most British artists were just bland imitations of American acts from that era. But, of course, there were a few exceptions. And Screaming Lord Sutch was one of them.
Sutch is widely considered to be one of the pioneers of Shock Rock. His stage performances and wild shows were a huge influence on artists such as Alice Cooper or Arthur Brown, among many others. And his version of “Jack the Ripper” has become a classic from that era.
Screaming Lord Sutch & The Savages also featured many musicians who became big names later in the 60s and the 70s. Musicians like Jimmy Page, Ritchie Blackmore, Jeff Beck, Nicky Hopkins, Keith Moon and Matthew Fisher were all members of the Savages at one point or another.
Let's take a look at the history of the band and explore some of the singles they released.
