Expectations 32:03 The Savage Resurrection were Randy Hammon (lead guitar, vocals) (whose cousin Paul Whaley was in Blue Cheer), John Palmer (lead guitar, vocals), Bill Harper (lead vocals, harp, percussions), Jeff Myer (drums), Steve Lage (bass guitar, vocals). Formed in 1967 in the East Bay town of Richmond, CA. (near Berkeley) by members of Garage Rock groups Button Willow, Whatever's Right, The Plague, The Blue Boys and others. The band were signed to Mercury Records by A&R man Abe 'Voco' Kesh (most famous for his work with fellow Bay Area-based acts `Blue Cheer` and `Harvey Mandel`) who also produced their lone album over the course of three days, capturing a group that sounded Rawer and Punkier than most Psychedelic bands. Some numbers on the resulting LP were basic Heavy Blues-Rockers; others had more unexpected chord shifts and song structures to anchor their intense lead guitar riffing. Lead singer Bill Harper and bassist Steve Lage left shortly after the album came out. With replacements the band only managed to do a few dates in the Midwest before breaking up later in 1968.
