For this round in the Live category, I pick
Kick Out The Jams by The MC5.
It's all summed up really beautifully by the first of the two video clips here. There's a spacey hippie chick sitting in front of a bunch of balloons talking about a list of upcoming guests including "the world's foremost Dylanologist and an experimental laser light show." Then the camera cuts to the Motor City 5. It's not peace, love and understanding.
They solved the age old problem of how to make your record sound as good as your live act by releasing a live debut record. The title track is right up there as one of the all-time best rock and roll songs.
The MC5 mark the point where 60s psychedelic music turned into something else. They were that much louder, darker, looser, and trashier. Their involvement with really far left politics was also telling of the split going on at the time between the soft hippie left and something more nihlistic and destructive. They got in fights. They smashed things. They did massive amounts of drugs. Wayne Kramer ended up in jail. And they famously said to their record company after being signed, "Yeah, we're a great band, but you really have to come up to Detroit to see these friends of ours called the Stooges..."
