Yep, Suzi Quatro's early work (in the Pleasure Seekers) can be heard here:

I was under the mistaken belief until now that this album also had Bob Seger's cuts for Dave Leone, but something I read says that there was a legal issue that held up those 6 tracks.

Also forgot to mention Mitch Ryder and Texas-gone-(Flint)Michigan's ? And The Mysterians as being Detroit area bands.

But Cleveland had Alan Freed reputedly giving it a name on the radio.

Plenty of Cleveland bands though.

Ted, Cooper, Iggy, Seger, all Michigan legends.
