 Detroit, Michigan in the late 1960's played host to a rock explosion of talent with, at the top of the pile, the MC5 and their rivals the SRC. Rising at the same time as the Stooges, Grandfunk Railroad, Bob Seger and the Amboy Dukes. The SRC - standing for Scott Richards Case - Scoot Richardson being the lead singer, began, like the MC5, by playing their version of UK R&B, before supplanting their own take on the music, characterising it with doomy organ, anglicised vocals and searing bursts of stun-guitar drenched in sustained feedback. "Black Sheep" is the definitive collection taken from across the SRC catalogue of three albums and six singles, as originally recorded for Capitol in 1968 and 1969. For fans of the 60's US rock scene, already into the Stooges and MC5, the SRC are important addition to their collection.Black Sheep (45 Version) / Interval / Checkmate / Daystar / Morning Mood / Eye Of The Storm / Refugeve / I Remember Your Face / My Fortunes Coming True / Paragon Council / Turn Into Love / Our Little Secret / Marionette / Street Without A Name / No Secret Destination / Up All Night / By Way Of You / Midnight Fever / Black Sheep (LP version)/
