[@WayneKramerMC5]

Yes, here I am! In the flesh (the cyber version). My friend Dennis Thompson is still with us as well. w.

[@sonicjet7759]

@@WayneKramerMC5 Good To Hear That :) but god bless Rob, Sonic and Michael Davis. The MC5 should be in the Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame in 2022, or someday. The World needs to hear the truth about real punk rock rebels who tried to make society better with art, culture and music.

[@jasonmcgary]

[@AndyH2O]

[@johnnydio5803]

Sounds great!! Wilshire cutting through very nicely.. last time i saw that gem was in the capable hands of the amazing Chris Haskett. Blessings. JF

Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, Leonardo's Last Supper, Michelangelo's David, van Gogh's Sunflowers, Beethoven's 5th symphony, Mozart's Requiem in D minor, Einstein's theory of relativity and Wayne Kramer and MC5's arrangement and rendition of Ramblin' Rose and creation of Kick out the Jams - all are placed and belong equally in the pantheon of l e g e n d a r y and exemplary pieces of western culture.

[@gregcrowe8885]

Well done beautiful ❤️ Good energy

[@markvickroy6725]

Where do I need to move to jam with Brother Wayne? MC50 At the (covid closed) Ready Room in St. Louis was...... A fucking dream.

[@vasilioskosman2789]

A Kazoo like back in in the Day! Nice!

[@WayneKramerMC5]

Hello! Singer Brad Brooks is playing a harmonica in this video. Glad you like it, though.

I'd love Wayne to sing it.

[@WayneKramerMC5]

No falsetto for Bro W anymore! But he still does sing it in a lower register. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHSyop-oabKSq9k

[@keithwisell8528]

Where's Wayne's slide to the side of stage??? Jerkin his neck to the beat????

[@MajorCulturalDivide]

Who was the original artist to record this song?

[@ThunderExpress]

Ted Taylor i believe

[@borbetomagus]

Jerry Lee Lewis first released the Marijohn Wilkin, Fred Burch and Obrey Wilson song in Jan, 1962. Ted Taylor released a version in May, 1965 (my favorite); Beauregard and The Tuffs released a version in July, 1965, but actually recorded it in Feb, 1962 (with fuzz guitar, courtesy of Grady Martin). It may be identical to the recording by Grady Martin and The Slewfoot Five, which only had a release in Australia and New Zealand in 1963, but with a possibly added vocal. Grady Martin also had other songs with pioneering fuzz guitar: Tippin' In/The Fuzz/Twist and Turn (1961), Big Bad Guitar (1962, also the B-side on 1965 Beauregard & The Tuffs single) & Marty Robbin's 'Don't Worry' (1960)); UK group The Bunch Of Fives recorded a live version in May, 1967. Dutch rock/pop band The Motions also released a version in 1967. For a fairly obscure song, it's pretty amazing it had this many covers before being most associated with the MC5's explosive live debut album.

E la grinta?...

[@josephamirato9648]

What happened to the 1970 energy? C'mon I'm gettin' old, too.

[@anthonypioppi273]

Except for any Phil Collins solo work, the worst drum sound in the history of recorded music.
