MC5 Co-founder and Leader Wayne Kramer Dies at 75

Wayne Kramer, the guitarist, singer and songwriter who co-founded and fronted the massively influential MC5, has died, his family said.

Kramer, who reformed the band in 2018 after a stint in prison in the 1970s and subsequent solo career, was 75 and died Feb. 2 from pancreatic cancer, the family’s statement said.

“He will be remembered for starting a revolution in music, culture and kindness,” the family said.

Alice Cooper mourned his “longtime friend - and sometimes collaborator” on social media: “Wayne Kramer. R.I.P.”

“He was my favorite person in the world,” Jill Sobule said of Kramer. “So beloved. I was lucky to have him in my life.”

Outside of his music career, Kramer founded Jail Guitar Doors, which provides acoustic guitars to incarcerated people.

“Rest in power to a brother who dedicated his life to being part of the solution,” Third Man Records said in a statement.

The MC5 released three LPs during its initial 1969-1972 run and is best known by the public for “Kick out the Jams.” Musicians felt the impact more deeply.

A “saddened” Vernon Reid ticked off Kramer’s many guises: “Punk-rock pioneer. Inmate-rights reformer. Author. Human-rights activist. Anti-violence advocate. Guitar badass. And major dude.”

Kramer was “the greatest man I’ve ever known,” Tom Morello said, adding that every time he’s in the studio, “the rawest, fastest track ha(s) the working title ‘MC5.’”

“Whenever and wherever any of us kick out the jams, Brother Wayne will be right there with us,” Morello said.

Or as the Dictators put it: “No MC5, no Dictators.”

E a relação esfriou tanto, que na hora de fazer amor apagava as luzes pra nem ela e nem eu nos vermos sem as vestes,os gemidos eram os únicos sons do sexo,e bem baixinhos,ela se contia e eu também, barulho alto aqui em casa era o som do galo ao amanhecer,ele parecia mais feliz me acordando do que eu ejaculando.

Cult Of Personality - Living Colour

[carrickbender]

2 nights ago I did one of the most impulsive things that 47 year old people who have to work the next day don't do- I got a message from a friend who had an extra ticket to see 2 bands I've wanted to see FOREVER, wondering if I wanted to go. So, on a proverbial 'school night', I went and saw Living Colour and Extreme. Extreme was good(and Nuno was Nuno, a serious guitar god), but Living Colour was fantastic. Vernon Reid(also a guitar god) was incredible, and Corey Glover is a powerful front man who still has an incredible voice. And, AND, during their last song-a rocking version of the Clash classic, "Should I stay or should I go", guess who walked through the crowd and rubbed shoulders with me? Corey. Truly a great show, and someday I'd like to see them by themselves. An hour was not enough... but isn't that how it goes with live music?

Thank you universe, I needed that!
