Memphis Soul

Horn stabs, dragging backbeat, one take: the sound of a house band cutting hits in a converted cinema.

Detroit Garage Revival

Two-guitars-no-bass primitivism, soul covers played wrong, and 7-inches pressed a thousand at a time.

Detroit Proto-Punk

Pull this thread and you get Michigan guitar noise from 1969 ballrooms to 1999 basements, unbroken.
