Being For The Benefit Of The Vietnam Veterans Of America Dept.: A recent gathering of some of Michigan’s finest oldsters (musicians from the ’60s), billed as the Guitar Army, brought in the bucks for the VVA and entertained a soldout crowd at Harpo’s in Detroit. The list of participants included just about everyone from the now-legendary Detroit/Ann Arbor axis of those bygone years, from Mitch Ryder to Mark Fariter of Grand Funk to Scott Morgan of the Rationale to Scott Asheton of the Stooges to Rob Tyner of the MC5 to Dick Wagner of the Frost to Jim McCarty and Johnny “Bee” Badanjek of the Detroit Wheels to Charlie Allen Martin of the Silver Bullet ; Band. The star-studded spectacular featured renditions of such timeless favorites as “Respect,” “2 + 2 = ?,” “Rock And Roll” and “I Wanna Be Your Dog.”
