Product Details

Boston's Barrence Whitfield has been a keeper of the raw, screaming flame since the early 1980s, channeling the untamed spirit of early rock and soul at a time when most of his contemporaries had long since cleaned up their act. His reunion with The Savages after a lengthy hiatus made this 2013 Bloodshot release one of the more genuinely exciting comebacks in American roots music, proof that some voices only get more dangerous with age.

A wealth of atomic-powered, sock it to me R&B and rock & roll hoodoo. Barrence Whitfield, possessing otherworldly pipes that range from a low feral growl rumbling the nether regions to a scream that would make Little Richard blush, belts out originals and crate-diver covers with equal fervor. "... a dozen pulsing, Nuggets-y guitar-and-horn-driven blasts, barely pausing for breath. 8 out of 10." - UNCUT UK
