hey guys, i know there are other sharrock threads, but i have a very specific question. i downloaded this WKCR session of sonny/linda and the savages, and i cant find the tracklist to save my life. i know one is called "sweet butterfingers," and another is called "peaceful." im not sure which ones are those, though, and i dont know the names of the other two.

The Savages? Personnel?

here's an interview excerpt from 1973, and the WKCR thing is from 3/21/74, so maybe its the same people...

Rich Scheinin: …What do you say we just talk about what you're doing on your own now? …'Cause you've mentioned that you do have your own band together now.

Sonny Sharrock: We do have our own band, and here goes the big plug for our band.

Linda Sharrock: …It's Abe Speller.

Sonny Sharrock: Abe Speller, drums.

Linda Sharrock: And he also plays steel drums.

Sonny Sharrock: …Jose Santos, Latin percussionist, and playing congas and timbales and percussion, and—

Linda Sharrock: We had Sonny's little brother with us the other day.

Sonny Sharrock: [Laughs] That was just something special that—

Linda Sharrock: Yeah, but it was nice. He was playing the bass.

Sonny Sharrock: My younger brother Dave Artis was playing bass.

Okay, we know them then, just not as "the Savages" (think Abe's nephew posted on a Sharrock thread)

yeah - the only place ive ever seen them credited as the savages is on this WKCR radio session...

Wait, didn't Denny Lethargy play on that session?

― jaymc (jaymc), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 19:27 (nineteen years ago)

― petesmith (plsmith), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 19:27 (nineteen years ago)

― petesmith (plsmith), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 19:59 (nineteen years ago)

they all work for me, and they sound great. many thanks, pete.

― milton parker (Jon L), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 20:04 (nineteen years ago)

That one came through great, thanks.

Most of these tracks appear, in inferior versions to my ear, on the Paradise album.

If freejazz was more like comics, and nobody ever really died permanently, I'd be a lot happier.

― Oilyrags, Thursday, 24 January 2008 05:24 (seventeen years ago)

This sounds like a perfect world.

― Sparkle Motion, Thursday, 24 January 2008 06:08 (seventeen years ago)

Waht, hooze, all those free jazzers-back-to-their-roots LPs in the eighties weren't enuff for ya??

No lie, this little concert is a gem.

― Sparkle Motion, Thursday, 24 January 2008 18:10 (seventeen years ago)

eight months pass...

Sonny and Linda's "Paradise" is A+ slick. Where the synth noodling ends, the yodeling begins. Righteous.
