This is a fantastic show from some of Detroit Music scene royalty. 98.7 WLLZ-FM gathered together a line-up of 1960's & 70's greats backed by a band of 1980's biggest in the scene. This concert was for a great cause, raising funds for Detroit's Viet Nam Veterans. So this is an early tribute to our veterans (The USA holiday honoring out veterans, Veteran's Day is in 4 days). This is also another in a series of posts I have been making in tribute to Michigan Music. I was actually at this show with some of my friends screaming my self horse when Rob Tyner came out to rip through 3 MC5 classics. I was then knocked to the floor to see 2 members of the legendary Frost walk onto the stage. I mean Scott Morgan of The Rationals opened the show and it just didn't stop! I am so glad I obtained a copy of this recording and I highly recommend it to everyone!

Draftervoi's notes:
The Spinners were reaching the end of their chart hits right about the time they recorded this show for Westwood One. The Spinners didn't release a live album in the 1980s, so this provides a good document of their live work during that decade.

Digitized from the original vinyl and de-clicked with ClickRepair and Audacity. Flac files of wavs. 300 dpi scan of the cover and a disc label. No cue sheet included, unfortunately.....
