I've never heard Mudhoney, but on this track, SM3 lift (hmmm...or should I
say drop?) the Do That riff. There's also some lyrics that sound like the
intro to MC5's KOtJ album... I see one of their CDs all the time, and it
also (along w/Revoultion) has covers (actually credited, at that)
of MC5's "Starship" and 13th Fl.
Elevators' "Rollacoaster".
Another question: Airport 75 doing "Brainstorm" -- this is pre-Monster
Magnet, right?
