How's this for some early Plexi action?

I think Wayne”s sideways move was a James Brown thing.

I can't find a video, but I think you're right. It looks like Kramer is doing "half" of the James Brown Shuffle.

I must confess that MC5 are only on periphery of my musical knowledge but I see now where these guys get their moves:

Not at all! I could not believe what I was watching and hearing. I was speechless for all the wrong reasons...

They weren't the most talented band, but the energy is definitely there.

Is it just me, or do their accents sound vaguely Southern when they speak?

 

[Mitchell Pearrow]

Looks as if AXL was more than a fan

 

[Harlequin tusk]

That looked very loud and a lot of fun!

 

[metromutt]

I think Wayne Kramer was one of the first to put a humbucker in a strat? ...1967?
Cool band

I found it painful to listen to, but a blast to watch. That was some serious stage energy.
