Kevin Pyle sent this to me a while back and reminded me it was too cool not to share: The Metro Times Century of Sound -- a Detroit music family tree. It's no surprise the tree looks more like fire given the number of hot names aflame, each flicker crackling another to higher, brighter, smokin' heat.
Just look at all the great stuff here in this small sample: Andre "Baconfat" Williams is not far from the MC5, Brownsville Station, Grand Funk, Iggy Pop, Ted Nugent, Seger, Mitch Ryder as well nugget-hatchers the Woolies, Unrelated Segments and ? and the Mysterians...Rationals, well, I don't need to name 'em all off.
Find the whole thing at the paper's website here.
Don't forget to read other music-related items at MangMade Records, too!

Yeah, this is cool. I know one of the guys in the electronic-soul part: Theorem. And Marshall Crenshaw is Chris Harrison's uncle! The orbitsuns play for Drunken Bingo at 4 GreenFields... saw them... :)
Crenshaw is Chris's uncle? Really?
And you, too, Carl. You're like six degrees of Motown separation. Sweet.
