ISBN10: 0826416608, ISBN13: 9780826416605, [publisher: CONTINUUM] Softcover (33 1/3 series). When first released in early 1969, the MC5's 'Kick Out the Jams' put the band at the crux of a contradiction that rock has yet to resolve: how do you subvert the values of corporate America when you are subsidized, packaged, produced, and promoted by corporate America? They quickly discovered the cruel lowdown. Here, Don McLeese tells the story of one of the most hyped, controversial and polarizing albums in the history of American rock music. Long live John Sinclair! W/Afterword. 122p.
