Description:
Spawned from the remnants of the Mc5, Stooges, Rationals and the UP, Fred "Sonic" Smith joined forces with Scott Asheton, Scott Morgan and Gary Rasmussen, to make legendary music that for the most part remained unheard by fans around the world. Until now. With the unprecedented success of the Sonic`s Rendezvous Band 6 disc boxset recently released in the U.K., the demand from the fans for a vinyl release has been met. This 36 minute `Live At Masonic Detroit 1978` show is one of the stand-out discs of the boxset, and it has been Remastered especially for this Limited 180 Gram Edition Vinyl release. On a cold January night, the Sonic`s Rendezvous Band took the stage opening for the Ramones in the 3,000 plus seat auditorium. They were personally asked to be on the bill by the Ramones, who had befriended the band on the many occasions they played together at the Second Chance in Ann Arbor. But this night the SRB performed with an urgency previously unheard. Songs include "Electrophonic Tonic" "Sweet Nothin`" "Asteroid B-612" "Gone With The Dogs" "Love And Learn" "Song L" and the classic "City Slang." The release also features great photos by Cream photographer Robert Matheu. (Alive Records)
