MC5 had quite a long carriere and they made many hits. Back in the USA is an amazing album, racked with beauty.For older fans Back in the USA will put a massive smile accross your face. I wish that “Back in the USA” album was instrumental.
The Human Being Lawnmower is one of those songs that will put you in a good mood. Shakin’ Street marked the continuation of MC5 in style evolution. I’ve found myself listening to Teenage Lust back to back and back many times. After you’ve listened to Tonight, most everything else can’t hold up and is second rate. Let Me Try is the first taste of the new album. Tutti-Frutti - To me, this is the best song on the Back in the USA. High School is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Back in the USA have ended. Call Me Animal good vocals. The American Ruse is a nice, innocuous song, and much better than anything MC5 released so far. Looking At You is maybe the best thing the group’s ever done.
