Detroit rock icons of the first tier, garage rockers Mitch Ryder and Question Mark presided over America’s rock & roll conversion in the 1960s, when radio gems like Ryder’s high-octane Devil with a Blue Dress On and the colorful Mysterians’ 96 Tears made both artists into two of the most popular recording artists in America. Equally inspired by the blues, R&B, and garage punk pioneers who had come before them, The Gories may have been too incendiary for their time, but their influence continues to reverberate. Many pop scholars and fans have only recently discovered Death, a reignited 1970s trio of African American proto-punk rockers that were true anomalies in the Detroit ferment.
