BARRENCE WHITFIELD & THE SAVAGES Live and Interview BBC

Looks like the Paradise or maybe Streets (long gone) in Boston. I see Phil n Phlash and the Franks in the crowd so we should ask them. Band members - Peter Greenberg - guitar,
Phil Lenker - Bass, Howie Ferguson - drums, Steve Legrega -sax Great Rare Footage - Thanks for posting

Anyone know where this was shot?

is he still around and playing?? awesome!! i remember barrence working at the record exchange in salem!!

big day out FTW!

he used to live in my neighborhood in lovely allston, home of the boston rock staars

Barrence el mejor sin duda!!!

Barrance is the best.  He dominated Boston mid-80s and beyond. Barry - Yo! Makes me think of Empire Street.

I saw this band (the original Savages, mostly ex-Lyres) at the Rat in Kenmore Square in 1984. It was probably the best show I have ever been to, really great. I never thought I'd see them again. Thanks for posting this.

I saw Barrence Whitfield on the TV and thought ESQUERITA-that's about the closest to the music.
The reason bands like this are little more than Cults is because of the appalling state of today's rock music which makes junk like Led Zepellin.the sex pistols and grunge as big as they are-the fact that rock critics write books about garbage like the sex pistols is telling you lies and theres enough gullible people to believe them

Barrence rules and if you're even in Boston, he is still delivering the goods. Seek him out, guaranteed good time.
