FOR FANS OF '50s ROCK 'N ROLL, '60s GARAGE, FREAK ROCK, HORROR ROCK, & BRITISH ROCK.
PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on "Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages," a CD compilation by rock 'n' roll band SCREAMING LORD SUTCH & THE SAVAGES, released under the EMI label in 1991.
OVERVIEW: "Screaming Lord Sutch was an original, at least as far as British rock & roll was concerned -- with the obvious exception of Screamin' Jay Hawkins, to whom he owed an obvious debt -- there was no one in rock & roll on either side of the Atlantic who took anything like the approach he did to the music, mixing completely out-there playing and singing with mostly strange, dark novelty tunes.
PART II: This collection, 18 tracks of which were produced by Joe Meek, show off the highlights of Sutch's five years on the EMI label, and feature accompaniment by Ritchie Blackmore, Nick Simper, Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Matthew Fisher, and Nicky Hopkins, all future luminaries in the rock world. And between all of those talents, this collection would naturally pull in listeners on the American side of the Atlantic by sheer force of gravitation, as it were.
PART III: As it turns out, however, the music is entertaining in its own right, and at its best offers a refreshing dose of straight-ahead rock & roll: "'Till the Following Night" and "Jack the Ripper" hold up well enough among the novelty tunes, while others, such as "Monster in Black Tights" (think of a Goth adaptation of "Venus in Blue Jeans") are good for a laugh and not too much else; "Purple People Eater," by contrast, is a punchy rendition of the Sheb Wooley tune, and it's followed by a raw (and '70s punk-speed) rendition of "Good Golly Miss Molly" that can stand in any collection, and "Don't You Just Know It" is just as good.
PART IV: They open the middle section of this collection, which is the strongest part, as it has all of the mainstream rock & roll. Among the treats is a surprisingly effective slow-tempo version of "Train Kept A-Rollin'" and a pounding, driving interpretation of Big Joe Turner's "Honey Hush" that has room for a honking sax and a delightfully weird guitar break. And Sutch's take on Johnny Otis' "Bye Bye Baby" is worth the price of admission, even if you don't know precisely who's playing that guitar break; odds are it's Jimmy Page.
PART V: Sutch's own "You Don't Care" also demonstrates that the man himself could help his cause creatively. The end of the disc is devoted to some '80s-era tracks that play off of Sutch's (by then) longtime fame in a somewhat more sophisticated manner than Meek‘s old productions did. These are very self-conscious but effective in a suitably theatrical manner, with several ex-Savages participating: "London Rocker" is a superb Little Richard-style song, while "Murder in the Graveyard" and "Loony Rock" play beautifully off of other sides of Sutch's persona.
PART VI/END: It's all a lot of fun and well worth tracking down as a profile of this singular figure in British rock & roll. And for a change, it's an actual EMI production: this is one that Colin Miles' See for Miles Records didn't have to do for them in order for it to come out right."

Screaming Lord Sutch intentó reciclarse sin éxito a mediados de los sesenta. Un año después del último single con The Savages (su estupenda versión de "The Train Kept a Rollin´" en mayo de 1966), publicó en solitario, dejándose el "screaming" por el camino, "The Cheat" o "She Was a Cheat", una canción que musicalmente poco tenía que ver con lo anterior: mayor delicadeza con orquesta emanando un ambiente oriental que presagiaba sicodelia.
En realidad era una versión de un tema de Lee Hazlewood grabado por el cantante rockabilly Sandford Clark en 1958 para Dot Records bajo el título "A Cheat", una cosa realmente fantástica.
Para que el cambio no fuese demasiado traumático para los fans de Sutch, la cara B fue "All Black & Hairy", en su línea habitual de divertido "shock rock" cenutrio. Dio igual, no se comió nada con "The Cheat". Su siguiente paso discográfico fue el polémico "all star" Heavy Friends. La interesante toma para la BBC.

going through my drafts i realised i had about four seperate posts about a demospy vampire au i brewed up. so im going to make another.
could you fucking imagine. demo, living in his big castle and the locals just think he's an esoteric millionare, 'that must be why he's never seen in town' the locals would say. spy, for one reason or another, decides to see what the hell the rumours are regarding this seemingly well-lived-in castle in the middle of scotland and the unknown occupant inside it.
the castle isn't decorated with off-putting modern decor as he might've expected. theres cobwebs littering the walls. his shoes echo on the stone floors. do the gorgeous paintings on the wall show the man in front of him, commissioned recently as some modern day mimickry of royal portraits? the noticable decay from age tells otherwise. the man in question- he says his name is Tavish, reaching out to shake spy's hand, spy notices the lack of warmth in tavish's touch even with his gloves on. one eye, always seeming to stare At spy, when he turns to look at tavish, he catches a glance down to his lips, or was it further down? urged to take a seat in the dining hall, and it really is a /hall/, a massive table with enough chairs to feed a few dozens, and here they are, sitting on opposite ends in the far-too-large far-too-empty room while the man whos breathe spy cant feel- it must be the balaclava he reasons, how could it be anything else- is leaning over his shoulder and pouring him a glass of wine. did he read the year on that bottle correctly? he understands why the locals think this man is filthy rich now.
needless to say it all ends in spy drinking a bit too much (vampire compelling?) and demo getting drunk off of his blood. by the way. wiping the blood off of the corner of his mouth with his thumb. thanking him while spy passes out. would he be nice enough to let spy rest in a spare room and then send him on his way, figuring spy is the type to not tell and trust him not to send some big vampire hunt on him. do they still do that in this era, he'd ask. demo is far too casual about this and spy is far too serious about it because everything about demo counters the typical idea of a vampire. oh, and of course, the fact that he is a vampire at all. it'd piss spy off terribly and that would be the funniest shit ever.
oh and his mother still lives with him, of course. i think it'd be funny to make her more bat-like because shes also a dracula... like a nosferatu maybe......
im not even a huge demospy fan anymore. i just really like this concept lmaooo.
oh right and in one of my drafts i mentioned this song for inspiring this. so. give it a listen if you like funny songs about thampayaaaas?
#molar rambles#put under a cut because while i want to share my thoughts i dont want to annoy some poor fucker lmao#sure why not i'll tag this. i gives no shits#demospy#tf2

Im of the firm belief that a FourX playlist should only be full of songs like:
Silly songs about being in love with weirdo killer freaks. No angsty break-up/make-up songs, no overly fluffy romance songs. I need songs BY freaks FOR freaks ABOUT freaks!!!!
