The mighty FIVE's incendiary 1968 attack on the system with the call out to R-I-S-E.....
The much wanted notorious original '68 pressing that ended very quickly when consumer complaints rolled into corporate Elektra complaining regarding offensive material on one of their catalog items. Elektra concerns of major retail stores boycotting their label, quickly withdrew the "obscene" record version and replaced it with an edit omitting the offensive text and audio language from the record, and all was right again in the world for spike and his flag-waving establishment cohorts who were 'saved' in suppressing such alarming content within this surviving original non-censored copy.
The original Elektra Records inner sleeve is included
"The MC5 not only talked about revolution, we believed it," guitarist Wayne Kramer recalled. "The part about destroying the government and taking over and shooting it out with the pigs and all that--that didn't work. But the other part about the concept of possibilities, the revolution of ideas--that has changed the world."
Indeed, the power of those ideas remains undiminished on the group's notorious album, its 1968 debut, "Kick Out the Jams."
"When the Detroit uprising jumped off, we thought the beginning of the end had arrived, and we were busy planning for the 'post-revolutionary construction' which would start with the victory of the insurrection," MC5 manager John Sinclair reflects -- "But the fantasy ended with the brutal suppression of the slave revolt in the streets and the gun-butts of the National Guard and U.S. Army troops who beat our door down and threatened to shoot us all on the spot." The musicians of the MC5 would later say that they'd always been less interested in fomenting revolution than in being a great rock band. And in the end, it was the MC5's music that was the most revolutionary.
