Drudgeons | Resurget Cineribus: A Detroit Compilation
I’m heading off to Detroit this weekend to see friends and Thrice at St. Andrew’s Hall. Thinking about Detroit and its immensely deep musical history sparked some research and discovery of more great performers I hadn’t heard.
Countless greats in jazz, blues, and gospel were spawned from the Motor City, as well as a unique and prolific electronic music scene, but what I really love about Detroit is its Motown, garage rock, and punk heritage.
Bands like MC5 and Death in combination with Motown acts like the Temptations and Wilson Pickett would inspire acts like The Gories and The Dirtbombs, and they in turn would influence a certain Jack White, who has his hands all over the current rock scene.
I could waffle on about the influence the Detroit music scene has had on popular music but just give this a listen. It’s not exhaustive by any means, but these are all songs I dig by Detroit Natives.
- The White Stripes - Blue Orchid
- Parliament - Together
- The Dirtbombs - Ode To A Black Man
- MC5 - Gotta Keep Movin’
- Gore Gore Girls - I’m Gonna Get You Yet
- Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - Mobile Lil the Dancing Witch
- Temptations - Ain’t Too Proud To Beg (Live!)
- The Detroit Cobras - He Did It
- Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - Mickey’s Monkey
- The Go - On The Corner
- Deastro - The Shaded Forests (Gift Giver’s Version)
- Wilson Pickett - Land Of 1000 Dances
- The High Strung - What A Meddler!
- The Four Tops - 7 Rooms of Gloom
- Unrelated Segments - Story Of My Life
- Death - Keep On Knocking
- The Raconteurs - Steady As She Goes
- Ted Nugent & The Amboy Dukes - Surrender To Your Kinks
- Sufjan Stevens - The Perpetual Self, Or “What Would Saul Alinsky Do?”
