MC5 (Motor City Five) - the legendary Detroit band. Their first single, included here, was released in 1967. In 1968, they played at the famous Democratic convention that turned into a police riot, and became the \"official band of the White Panther Party.\" Their manager John Sinclair became a martyr of hippie activism, after being imprisoned for 10 years for 2 joints, inspiring John Lennon's song \"10 For 2.\" Kicked off their first label Electra, they signed with Atlantic for two more albums, but only achieved underground success.
