      Made popular by Louis Bellson and Ginger Baker . Bellson started playing double bass drums in 1939 years ahead of everyone else.

    Could you imagine, being at some "teen dance night" at a VFW hall, and you hear all these copies of Hermans Hermits and the Hollies. And then you are confronted by these guys. It must have been either horrible or revolutionary.

    the reality is the MC5 were like a lot of Detroit/Flint bands in that they were really motown R and B bands who tried to be psychedelic, and folk rocky but never really were. Strangely enough their legacy became heavy metal.

      I would argue The Fugs had the first punk rock lyrics. But MC5 secured their place as the first punk rockers when they did that ‘Fuck Robisons from Elecra Records’ stunt

      MC5 were NEVER a punk band and this is not a punk performance...
      this sounds closer to The Yardbirds and some other british bands of the time than to The Ramones.
      Explain to me how this psychedelic jam has something remotely similar to Ramones 2 mins of blistering and restless power chords ...
