2024 albums

I did a little diggin' on this new "MC5" album as the first track out and about.. and most certainly up to no good "Boys Who Play With Matches" is a barn burner...

Turns out it's been in the works long before Wayne and Dennis's untimely passing.  Wayne recorded a new version of "American Ruse" with   singer Brad Brooks in 2020.  In 2022 Wayne went into the studio to start recording this album with Brad on vocals and Don Was and  Abe Laboriel Jr.  They later did that 2022 tour as the MC5, where they road tested the new material.  Wayne actually announced the release of the  album in 12/23 prior to his death, so it's not a case of lets find some mothballed tapes and release an album...

Yeah, Wayne was definitely working on it for a while, so it's not like it was a rush to throw it out before their induction into the R'n'R Hall of Fame. So glad that I got to see those MC50 shows. They were so great. Wayne was also a good soul. Will definitely be checking this record out.

New Primal Scream, but excitement is low on this one.. So much coming to the surface regarding Bobby G.   Word is he cut Denise Johnson out of any royalties she could have earned and in general treated her badly.. also just saw that in Miki Berenyi’s book he comes off as leech who groped her.

[hutch]

All this stuff about Bobby G. is weird cause he was always considered one of the good guys…

Now it turns out he screwed over two former band members - who never said anything publicly while alive- on money. My first question in these cases is was there really that much money in play? After Screamadelica Primal Scream never really sold that well anyways… And I am guessing on Screamadelica Alan McGee got the real money. Now sometimes people assume there is a lot of money they are getting screwed out of but I mean after Exterminator their albums hardly sold 1000 copies and that was almost 25 years ago!

Rock and roll is a dirty business and such stories are a dime a dozen.

As far as acting inappropriate around women I have no idea but if we are talking about the early 90s and people are dropping loads of E I would honestly be surprised if there wasn’t a lot of that behavior going on.

speaking of treating former bandmates/collaborators badly: i'm looking forward to the board's reaction to this one... some Perry fans gon' be MAD
