Savage is the seventh album by the British pop music duo Eurythmics, released in 1987.
Following the much more mainstream commercial content of their previous two albums, Savage saw Eurythmics "turn sharp left" (as Stewart put it), with a much more experimental sound. Production-wise, the album made heavy use of the NED Synclavier digital sampling keyboard.

Savage is the seventh album by the British pop music duo Eurythmics, released in 1987.
Following the much more mainstream commercial content of their previous two albums, Savage saw Eurythmics "turn sharp left" (as Stewart put it), with a much more experimental sound. Production-wise, the album made heavy use of the NED Synclavier digital sampling keyboard. The only other musician working on the recordings with Stewart and Lennox was drummer Olle Romo, who handled much of the Synclavier programming. Lennox brought more of a feminist focus to her lyrics which was made more evident by the accompanying video album, which featured a video for each song, directed by Sophie Muller.
Although the album was not as commercially successful as their previous two albums, in the UK it made the top 10, produced three top 30 singles, and was certified platinum.
On November 14, 2005, SonyBMG repackaged and released Eurythmics' back catalog as "2005 Deluxe Edition Reissues." Each of their eight studio albums' original track listings were supplemented with bonus tracks and remixes. Read more on Last.fm.
