Here is a great letter from Wanye Kramer explaining the relationship the MC5
and Sun Ra developed, and how it lead to their appearence at the festival.
Yes, the MC5 werent at that fest (as it was in 72'), but played many times
with the Akestra in the years prior to their appearance there.
Hopefully you'll enjoy it as much I have.
I think we better start talking about techno again tho...haha LOL!
