	Screaming Lord Sutch
		Sutch was a pop singer, who sought a path to publicity through standing for election, and consequently become the longest serving party leader in history.
		Sutch would begin by emerging from a coffin, dressed as Jack the Ripper and sporting such props as skulls, daggers and the grisly appurtenances of the funeral trade.
		Sutch went on to represent the party at general elections and bye-elections, invariably losing his deposit and adding some merriment to the proceedings.

	Official Monster Raving Loony Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Sutch came closest with 4.1% and over a thousand votes at the Rotherham by-election, whilst Stuart Hughes still holds the record for the largest number of votes for a Loony candidate at a Parliamentary election, with 1,442 at the 1992 General Election in the Honiton seat in east Devon.
		Sutch also defeated a joint Plaid Cymru/Green Party candidate at the bitter Monmouth by-election and almost beat the ruling Conservative Party's candidate at the Islwyn by-election later on - but by this time the OMRLP were organised enough to make coming in fourth the norm in by-elections in England and Wales.
		Screaming Lord Sutch, a manic depressive after the death of his mother Annie in 1998, committed suicide on June 16, 1999.

	Screaming Lord Sutch - A Loony Remembered
		Sutch's obsession with horror movies and the macabre was well known, an integral part of his image, but it was strictly for laughs.
		Sutch was a charming, down-to-earth man, with an in-built, infectious sense of humour.
		Sutch talked a mile a minute, determined to cover all the highlights of his career, specifically: precise election results and of course the name of every single one of the famous players who'd passed through the ranks of the Savages ("my musicians", as he called them).

		Sutch, who legally changed his name to add the "Lord," founded the Monster Raving Loony Party in 1963 and first ran for Parliament in 1964.

		So it was a stroke of genius for him to take to the hustings, where for Screaming Lord Sutch simply to stand for election was in itself a satirical statement: he didn't really have to do anything, he simply had to be something, and at that he was very good.
		Sutch's last election was as late as 1998, but his comedy manifestos seem to hark back to Beachcomber, the early Goon Shows and such forgotten entertainments as An Evening of British Rubbish.
		To Sharpe, seeing a division between David Sutch and his alter ego, it was perhaps an inspired solution to the problem of how to allow "David to return to the comfort of his mother's protection while allowing Lord Sutch to hit the headlines in a more sensational way than ever before".

	The Essential Ghoul's Record Shelf: DRACULA'S DAUGHTER \| screaming lord sutch
		SCREAMING LORD SUTCH must be rock and roll's strangest example of a performer's flirtation with politics.
		Sutch makes this romance sound like a hoot -- there is an audible mirth to his singing -- even if his lyrics point to the dangers of such a romantic pairing, including the verty real likelihood that the object of his affections is simply preparing him to be his meal.
		Sutch's entire political career was marked by a carefully cultivated ridiculousness -- he ran for election again in 1964 on a campaign that battled discrimination against long hair and proposed knighthood for the Beatles (the latter of which would actually come to pass for Paul McCartney in 1997).

	Screaming Lord Sutch Interview
		When Screaming Lord Sutch emerged on the British rock scene in the early 1960s, there were hardly any other musicians in the entire country who could play guitars and saxophone with anything approaching a genuine rock or RandB feel.
		Sutch was not a great singer, but his enthusiasm, lunacy, and eye for top-flight backing musicians carried the day on his handful of singles in the early-to-mid-1960s.
		Sutch's early singles also rate as some of the best productions by pioneering British producer Joe Meek, mixing remakes of early rock'n'roll classics with material reflecting the singer's fascination for the ghoulish and the comically outrageous.

		Sutch's strongest showing was at Rotherham in May 1994 when he polled 1,114 votes, only some 200 short of the number required for saving his deposit.
		Sutch's last coup was at the Uxbridge by-election of 1997, when he scored 10 times the vote of Dr Alan Sked's UK Independence Party.
		While he holds a position of undeniable importance in the history of British rock, Sutch was not a talented singer or musician, and the records he made after the mid-'60s were pretty lame, despite the presence of some stars who remembered him fondly (and had even sometimes played in his band in the old days).

		At least, that was the perception of some in Parliament who changed the laws to stop Sutch - and similar 'fringe of the fringe' - candidates from standing in elections by increasing the cost of Parliamentary deposits.
		He also teamed up with Keith Moon, Jimmy Page, Blackmore and others on the 1969 album 'Screaming Lord Sutch And Heavy Friends', which was a pretty dire record, though his early 60s horrorshow rock pre-dated Alice Cooper, The Damned, Marilyn Manson and any number of goth bands by years.
		In 1964 Sutch stood for Parliament on behalf of the Teenage Party, National Youth Party, campaigning for votes for 18 year olds and over (at that time the minimum voting age was 21) and launched his pirate radio station Radio Sutch.

		Much is made of the relationship he had with his mother and his somewhat chaotic personal life, although how much of that was the result of a "rock'n'roll" lifestyle and how much he chose the lifestyle to suit his personality we'll probably never know.
		Sutch became to seen by most people as a harmless self-publicising eccentric, but it seems clear that he eventually found the role tiresome yet dependent on it for his living.
		Sutch is also credited with finishing the Social Democratic Party as an electoral force and ending the parliamentary ambitions of Alan Sked leader of UKIP.
