I do...

The Motor City 5, late 60's/70's rock band from Detroit... (hence the name) ;)

I have THREE versions of the 1969 classic "kick out the jams" NONE actually by the MC5. (Monster Magnet, Entombed and Rage Against The Machine all do the honours)

Nicke Royale (nee Andersson) of the Hellacopters was the drummer of Entombed at the time they covered it (around 1997), as a track on the bonus CD which came with the special addition of "To Ride Shoot Straight And Speak The Truth" - which I might add I bought as soon as it came out.

There's your connection.

Don't worry Mr Lucifer, I know where you're coming from :)

i have Kick Out The Jams by the MC5 aswell.

i also know who Lemmy is, he sang vocals on Silver Machine by Hawkwind, and got kick out of the band because it was there most successful song. he also plays in that band called Motorhead or something. who rock like a mother fucker.

The Hellacopters are a Scando-garage-punk band.

dunno who the Dave Vanian guy is.

Ian Kilminster if we're getting into specifics... :up:;)

I nearly got into the Hellacopters around 1997/98 as I was a big fan of the Backyard Babies then. Who unfortunately will never better their 'Total 13' and 'Safety pin, Leopard Skin' releases...

Man I still remember ALL the lyrics to "Bad Machine" and "Bombed Outta My Mind"... Oh! and the awesome cover of faster pussycats' Babylon featuring Ginger.

P-P-P-Pussycat...SHUT UP!!!

Ahh...those were the days.

Middle name Fraser :p

Hahaha...well spotted! It was originally a typo but I left it in to see if anyone would question it (I could have checked on the web if I didn't actually know how to spell his name)

I reckon that must be one of the most frequently asked rock quiz questions... "Who is Ian Fraser Kilmister?"

Other versions include covers by Jeff Buckley, Henry Rollins, The Presidents of the USA and I'm pretty sure Earth Crisis.

EDIT: ....and Guitar Wolf.
