2004, Sundazed
VINYL FORMAT. Sundazed pressing. The MC5 was nearing the end of their long and bumpy trail when they cut "High Time" in 1971, and it was widely ignored upon initial release. While it lacks the flame-thrower energy and "Off the man!" politics of "Kick Out the Jams," or the frantic pace and "AM Radio of the People" sound of "Back in the U.S.A.," "High Time" now sounds like the MC5's equivalent to the Velvet Underground's "Loaded," their last and most accessible album, but still highly idiosyncratic and full of well-written, solidly played tunes.
