Their highly sought after third LP SOPHISTICATED INTERNATIONAL PLAYBOYS demonstrated the many moods of the Untamed Youth.
In the tradition of the Trashmen and the Rivieras before them, the Untamed Youth hail from the bounteous midwest region of these United States, and swing forth with the frantically delectable combination of high octane stomp, reverb, shout and soul that powered their heroes. As teenagers, guitar playing Derek "Deke" Dickerson commanded his beloved sidekick Steve "Mace" Mace to play bass, and the two lured local drum legend/school chum Joel Trueblood into the fold, along with organ playing Chris Fletcher to form a combo, which they dubbed UNTAMED YOUTH.

The Untamed Youth:
Deke Dickerson: Guitar, lead vocals / Steve Mace: Bass, backing vocals / Steve Rager: Organ, backing vocals / Bobby Lloyd Hicks: Drums, backing vocals / D. Clinton Thompson: Second guitar (on "Sour Grapes") / The Skeletons: backing vocals (on "Long Green")
