CD Reviews66 BREAKOUT Mr. T. J. Gray | walton on thames, surrey United Kingdom | 06/20/2000 (5 out of 5 stars) "A decent collection of 11 early Mc5 songs,ie as the title says from 1966.This collection features the mono version of I can only give you everything which is brilliant.Plus some live tracks of rarer songs.This collection also has the story of the group, plus stories behind the songs featured on this collection as told by their one time guitarist Wayne Kramer.Also features early pictures of the group with their Beatle style haircuts check out the front cover.The only problem with this cd is some of the tracks are a bit to bassy,ie being on the track one of the guys but this is a minor flaw.This collection is a must have for fans of this loud,fast and exciting group I highly recomend." MC5 - '66 Breakout' (Total Energy) Mike Reed | USA | 03/25/2004 (3 out of 5 stars) "This eleven track compilation disc was culled from founding guitarist Wayne Kramer's home tapes.And I do mean HOME tapes.Most of the songs here require the listener to turn down the left channel side when you have the headphones on.Perhaps that's what makes this disc so much fun.Some of these cuts have turned up on other compilations,but a different version.For example,the seven minute version of "Looking At You" was recorded at a high school gig where vocalist Rob Tyner plays some MEAN ass harmonica!Other goodies include the raw-sounding "I Just Don't Know",the Yardbirds cover "I'm A Man" and the Them cover "I Can Only Give You Everything".There's a ten page booklet with super rare photos and plenty of liner notes written by Kramer.These recordings are from 1965-66.Pure vintage,wouldn't you say?" Perfect, primitive, MC5 Carl Slim | the factory | 12/16/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is great. The same 5 guys that made the major label releases, showing their classic rock and modern (for 1966) rock influences. No session musicians on any tracks as far as I can tell, and the experimental approach is already shopwing itself. "Looking at You" is longer, bluesier, basically more-mid-sixties-sounding than the other versions, same for "Black to Comm". The Yardbirds-influence is very obvious here. There's some cute "on stage" moments, a goof on "Little Red Riding Hood",and the A-square singles-Basically loud screaming music, if not particularly avant-garde. Also, an electric blues number ("Look What You Done Done"), which is a little stereotypical. This is the beginning of the "High Energy" sound, without so much of the jazz influence. Think of this as the link beweeen early Kinks, Stones, Yardbirds, and Who...and late sixties Heavy Metal/Proto punk."
