the rationals' "smokestack lightning"

here's one that'll bring back memories for my sweetie -- a vid of one of my fave bands of all time, the rationals' '66 teen-snot version of howlin' wolf's "smokestack lightning," morphing into their cover of the animals' "inside looking out," complete with butterfield blues band psychedelic raga. these guys were contemporaries of the mc5 and the stooges, and their frontman scott morgan still has a pretty happenin' career in europe with bands like the hydromatics and the solution. vid put together by their fellow ann arborite, all music guide editor michael erlewine.
