David Edward Sutch (10 November 1940 – 16 June 1999), also known as Screaming Lord Sutch, 3rd Earl of Harrow or simply Screaming Lord Sutch, was an English musici
an and aspirant politician.
During the 1960s, Screaming Lord Sutch was known for his horror-themed stage show, dressing as
Jack the Ripper, pre-dating the shock rock antics of Alice Cooper. Accompanied by his band, The Savages, he started by coming out of a black coffin.
Despite self-confessed lack of vocal talent, he released horror-themed singles during the early to mid-'60s, the most popular "Jack the Ripper", covered live and on record by garage rock bands including the White Stripes, The Black Lips and The Horrors for their debut album, Strange House.
Sutch's album Lord Sutch and Heavy Friends was named in a 1998 BBC poll as the worst album of all time
For his follow-up, Hands of Jack the Ripper, Sutch assembled British rock celebrities for a concert at the Carshalton Park Rock 'n' Roll Festival. The show was recorded (though only Sutch knew), and it was released to the surprise of the musicians. Musicians on the record included
Ritchie Blackmore (guitar)
Matthew Fisher (keyboard)
Carlo Little (drums)
Keith Moon (drums)
Noel Redding (bass) and
Nick Simper (bass).
In the Rolling Stones song "Get Off of My Cloud", the guy who shows up "All dressed up just like a Union Jack" was Lord Sutch uninvited in Mick Jagge
r's room.
He couldn't properly be considered part of the British Invasion he never had a hit in the U.S. or the U.K. but Screaming Lord Sutch laid some unheralded groundwork for the phenomenon.
With a
rock & horror act based to a large degree on Screamin' Jay Hawkins, David "Lord" Sutch was one of the first genuine rock & roll longhairs, and his bands employed such sterling instrumentalists as
Jimmy Page ,
Jeff Beck ,
Ritchie Blackmore ,
Nicky Hopkins , and
Mitch Mitchell before they became famous.
Sutch suffered from depression and committed suicide by hanging on 16 June 1999, following the death of his mother the previous year.
