Dig Thy Savage Soul

Boston's legendary Barrence Whitfield and The Savages' new album 'Dig Thy Savage Soul' is a wealth of atomic-powered, sock it to me R&B and rock and roll hoodoo. Barrence, 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 the formidable and aptly-named Savages. They keep his back with a punk rock grit and blues ferocity that lives in the frets between Chuck Berry and Jack White. Together, Barrence and the Savages lay down a groovy racket that's so thick and greasy, you need moist towelettes near the hi-fi.Vinyl with download.
