He was the founder of the Official Monster Raving Loony Party and served as its leader from 1983 to 1999, during which time he stood in numerous parliamentary elections.
Screaming Lord Sutch was born in North London. His father, a war reserve policeman, was killed in an accident when his son was 10 months old. His mother - to whom he was devoted - was a fan of Dickens; she christened him David after David Copperfield. For most of the next fifteen years they shared a flat and poverty in what he called a dead-end street in Kilburn, while she worked as a cleaner and shop assistant. Entertainment was Saturday morning pictures and the Metropolitan Music Hall, Edgeware Road. In 1956, after David had left school, they moved to South Harrow, where he became a window cleaner.
It was the birth of British rock music; a time when the young and desperate could pursue a new escape route. What he called his 'wild man of Borneo look' got Screaming Lord Sutch a spot singing at the Two I's coffee bar in Soho. His style evolved, or lurched, out of that slurry of music hall (he was a Max Miller fan), horror movies, Grand Guignol, pulp comics, slapstick and transatlantic pop. Thus did the black American rhythm & blues singer Screaming Jay Hawkins provide a name, and the basis of an act.
In 1961 he was spotted by the curious and doomed independent record producer Joe Meek. "I was doing the horror", said Sutch, "screaming and yelling. I had 18 inches of hair and I was running around in buffalo horns and my auntie's leopardskin coat. The scout said 'You've got a different approach. You want to make a record?'". Screaming Lord Sutch made records, and recorded with a clutch of (later) distinguished British rock musicians. The early subject matter focused on disembowelment and graveyards - on one occasion Meek posed Screaming Lord Sutch as Jack the Ripper in Whitechapel at night. Both men, observed Sutch, were intrigued by horror films. But he had no real hits. Indeed, by 1963 his career had been swamped by the Mersey boom.
It was then that he went to Stratford, campaigning for commercial radio, votes at 18, abolition of dog licences and his share of the spotlight, with the mix of native wit and puerility that marked his aimless - or dadaist - media courtship. The live act around Europe, and playing small halls and pubs, provided an income.
His last political hurrah was in the 1995 Littleborough and Saddleworth byelection (the OMRLP didn't have the money to run in the last European elections). But more than finances, it was perhaps the times that had finally run out.

When I heard this during the end credits of Logan Lucky I thought it was some modern track with a drummer doing an unbelievably accurate John Bonham imitation. Of course, it actually IS the late Bonzo himself. Upon a second listen Jimmy Page is pretty unmistakable, as well. I think it must have been the spoken-vocal-through-a-megaphone that gave it a contemporary feel, despite being from 1969. A great little gem.

Kudos to you my friend.
RKSidd 2020
Yup, came here straight after Logan
Big Daddy
A good tube mic and a lot of compression will make the vocals sound like that.
Troy Robinson
it's on the Logan Lucky movie soundtrack.......along with lots other cool stuff!

Just wrote basically the same thing without reading any other post. Yep, this one is new to me also @ 58 years old. Off to listen to the rest of the songs now.
beamifrend
I'm amazed this hasn't been in a Tarantino movie. The Logan Lucky soundtrack is brilliant. Never thought i'd hear Tony McPhee and the Groundhogs on a modern sountrack, awesome!
teriakamoto
Tony and GH's "Split" is my favorite.Killer Album young rockers in TV Land.

I bought this on 8-track from a bargain bin in 1972. I would crank the hell out of it on my car stereo!
