Name That Band


This week's mystery band still ranks as one of the best underrated groups to break out of the Motor City. They are sometimes mistakenly thought of as a band that covered a tune that became a national hit and a star-maker for another Detroit artist and their soul laced British invasion sound was way ahead of it's time. Extra credit if you can name the DJ in the picture and two of his music oriented television programs. Listen to next week's Keener podcast for the answer!

    The band of course, is The Rationals......featuring Scott Morgan on vocals.
    The song referred to is "Respect", also a hit for Detroit's Aretha Franklin.
    The jock is Robin Seymour and the T.V. show is "Swingin' Time", televised on Windsor, Ontario's CKLW-TV (Channel 9). I don't remember him having a second T.V. show.
