"After their second trip to Holland, Southend resident, Heinz Burt, the former bassist with 60’s outfit The Tornados, contacted the band [Dr Feelgood].
Heinz had long since reverted to a day job selling advertising space in the local paper, but continued to supplement his income by occasional appearances on the revival circuit.
"He suggested that the band became his backing group for a few gigs, and, with the chance to play still all too rare for the band's liking, they agreed.
The union was short lived, but culminated in a memorable appearance alongside Chuck Berry, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bo Diddley and MC5 at the Wembley Rock'n'Roll Festival in 1972."

"David Sutch called Ronnie and asked if he would reform The Savages with Pete Phillips for “The London Rock and Roll Show”, the first music show to be staged at the Wembley Empire Stadium. The show featured some of the truly great artists including Bill Haley and the Comets, Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, Little Richard and Bo Diddley. Screaming Lord Sutch and the Savages brought the house down, along with Jack the Ripper, Joe Brown, Billy Fury and the House Shakers. "

Which fits with this band list

Screaming Lord Sutch & The Savages #22 (August 1972)

• Dave Sutch (Lead Vocals)
• Ronnie Harwood (Rhythm Guitar/Vocals)
• Sid Meadows (Bass)
• Pete Phillipps (Drums)
