 "This is not a book. It’s a prolonged insult, a spit in the face of Art, a kick to Divinity, to Man, to Destiny, to Time, to Love, to Beauty... to whatever you like."

 "MC5, who in 1969, but only that year, danced on our filthy corpses... What remains is 'Kick Out The Jam.' Fortunately, the System could not make all the vinyls of that masterpiece disappear."

 Explore the turbulent history behind MC5’s 'Back in the USA' and rediscover the raw power of their revolutionary spirit.

Back in Lincoln Park where I was mostly raised
Hanging around town where I got totally crazed
Surrounded by bitches who wouldn't give it in

They told you in school about freedom
But when you try to be free they never let ya
They said "it's easy , nothing to it"

Little Orphan Annie and Sweet Sue too / They've been coming around / Gives 'em somethin' to do / Their mamas all warned 'em not to come to town / It got into their blood / Now they gonna get down / Shakin' street it's got that beat / shakin' street where all the kids meet / Shakin' street it's got that sound / Shakin' street say you gotta get down / Streetlight Sammy decided to make the trip / All the way from New Jersey / On his girlfriend's tip / He pulled into town and met Skinny Leg Pete / Said come here, boy I heard about the streets / I heard about the place where all the kids go / Now, I'm about to flip / I just gotta know about / Well the kids on shakin' street never give in / 'Cause all of their lives they've been livin' in sin / You know that they're bad / You know that they're mad / They take for the takin' / They shake for the shakin' / Shakin' Shakin' Shakin' / The folks keep complaining they find it so shockin' / All the kids wanna do is just keep on rockin' / They ain't got no time to think about stoppin' / They gotta get down and do a little stompin' / Now Sally Baker wants to shake her shaker / And Bobby C. says he's gonna take her to / Shakin' street . . .
