Screaming Lord Sutch was an early and, unfortunately, now obscure British rocker. He did not really have that much musical ability of his own, but was able to collect about himself a collection of current and future British rock superstars. His band came and went, but included some really big names.
He was not a Lord at all, he was a commoner named David Edward Sutch, born 19401110. He took the stage name Screaming Lord Sutch, third Earl of Harrow (I have also seen fifth Earl quoted) in the early 1960s, and was pretty much known by that afterwards. He took the “Screaming” part from Screaming Jay Hawkins, who we mentioned last week in the Arthur Brown istallment.
