IN THE BEGINNING

The origin of the band can be traced back to the late 50's with Screaming Lord Sutch. At that time the band included musicians such as Keith Moon and Ritchie Blackmore. With the leadership of Lord Sutch, The Savages have been around in many different line-ups. One of the last before the untimely death of Lord Sutch was this one, a band who themselves have seen members come and go during their 8 year history.

OUR LEADER AND OUR INSPIRATION

Here is a small selection of the Lord Sutch albums I have in my collection, it is of course by no means a comprehensive catalogue of everything he recorded (this would be very difficult, with overseas releases and compilations) but it is designed rather to show just a little bit about his life. PLEASE NOTE, THE ITEMS LISTED BELOW ARE NOT FOR SALE!

 A wonderful insight in to what Lord Sutch used to do during live shows. Recorded live in London 1971 and featuring a band made up from the best musicians at the time including: Keith Moon, Ritchie Blackmore, Noel Redding, Nick Simpler, Matthew Fisher, Sid Phillips and Lord Sutch's original drummer and life long friend Carlo Little. This is a gatefold cover with very good sleeve notes and a press report inside.  Manic Rock 'N 'Roll here, and once again the band is made up of top names including: Jimmy Page, Noel Redding, Jeff Beck, John Bonham, Nicky Hopkins and Carlo Little. The painted Roller on the cover and featured in track 8 was reputedly stolen whilst Lord Sutch toured in America. If it turns up will someone let me know it's whereabouts? But please don't send me on any wild goose chases.  Recorded live and in the studio, Lord Sutch teams up with R 'n' B master Pat Travers and his band on this german produced album. Disco Crusher should be the theme song of all live musicians out there who play at the same venues as mobile DJ's. All the Rock 'N' Roll is there and some lovely and strange tunes. Listen out right at the end as sutch opens the studio mike and thanks everyone for their help, it sums up his sense of humour!

 A compilation of Lord Sutch's favourite tracks, featuring original versions of Jack the Ripper (a song he recorded many times with different people) All Black & Hairy and Hog For You Baby. There are no credits to musicains involved in this album. It is released by a Belgian record company.  With its gatefold cover this is a great collection of old photos and press cuttings. Recorded in the early 80's it features a band made up once again of top musicains including: Freddie Fingers Lee, Wild Bob Burgos and Tony Dangerfield.  Another European release. A compilation of Sutch's better known songs and some that are difficult to find anywhere else exept on this album. To the best of my knowledge this is the only one that was ever available on CD. If anyone knows different please let me know and I'll update my infomation.

There have also been a few books written about Lord Sutch and he
had a knack of creating publicity and was, over his career never out
of the newspapers for very long. His untimely death made the front pages
and his funeral was almost a state afair with the amount of people who
turned up to pay their respects.
