The Equals

On this episode of The Detroit Move, I have New Orleans R&B gems from Paul Gayten and Ernie K-Doe, along with music from T. Rex and The Equals.

Plus, plenty of Motor City sounds from Andre Williams, Erma Franklin and the punk ’n blues trio Bogue.

I will also spotlight bands playing this weekend’s Summer Stroh Down Fest at Outer Limits Lounge in Hamtramck.
