Not in the MC5 days though! Never seen the bucker in one of his Mosrites from those days. Fred is THE man. My #1 favorite guitar slinger. Hands down.
Somebody is slightly out of tune in that particular clip, but oh well, it's Rock'n'Roll!

Here is a clip I found last summer that I've been watching a whole lot. The fives take on Ray Charles. :)

HAHA, John, you are a wealth of information. I might have to make you an admin on that page.

Hahah! Ok, I admit it, I can be slightly fanatic. But it is glorious to nerd about that kind of stuff.
