David Hackney of DEATH - 1975 proto-punk band from Detroit, they should have been huge. Instead they were near-total unknowns till a year or two ago when Drag City started putting their stuff out. It's pretty hot if you're into hard rock of that perid. [Edited 5/15/11 20:40pm] | |

Good call! Rocky was in Suicidal the first three times I saw them 1985-87 and he was a monster.
