Waking Up Screaming ‘SOMEBODY HELP ME’
Daily noise that works faster and harder than any stimulant
14 April 2023
Today 57 years ago, British beat band Spencer Davis Group, named after
its Welsh founder and guitarist Spencer Davis (who passed away 2 years ago,
aged 81) topped the UK Singles Chart with Somebody Help Me. A song written
by Jamaican musician Jackie Edwards.
The SDG was also the first band of superb teenage
soul vox Steve Winwood – only 16 at the time.
Trust me it feels so good to scream Somebody Help Me the day after a hangover.
