MC5 “Kick Out The Jams” 1969/2022

How have I never had a copy of this until today? Foundational stuff for sure. An explosive live album that also functions as their debut album. Containing an all time great anthem in the title track “Kick Out The Jams”. When you’re with a certain kind of people thats a good one to start a party with (only with the uncensored version though).

And that’s the whole album…
