They were the over indulged,
over educated offspring of America's affluent. They came of age during
the mid-60's...and they blew their tuition on guitars and drums.
The end product was savage
rock 'n roll by teenagers who had damn near choked on the silver spoon.
Suddenly they had become the disenfranchised, rebellious punks who fled
the proper grooming of prestigious prep schools to become local heroes
dabbling in witchcraft, drugs and three chords.
They turned their collective
backs on their pre-ordained paths, cranked up the fuzz for 18 months and
then simply disappeared.
This is the legacy of Salem, Massachusetts' teen idols... thee Wytches.
