    Default Dennis Thopson

    Dennis Thompson (born in 1948) is an American drummer, most famous for being a member of the 1960s–70s Detroit proto-punk/hard rock group MC5 formed in 1964.

    Thompson was given the nickname "Machine Gun" because of his fast, hard-hitting drumming that resembles the sound of a Thompson machine gun ("Tommy Gun"). His drumming pre-figured and influenced punk, metal, and hardcore punk drumming styles.

    After MC5 broke up, Thompson played with the 1975–1976 Los Angeles-based group The New Order, the Australia-based supergroup New Race, The Motor City Bad Boys, and The Secrets.

    This is Dennis playing "Kick Out the Jams" from the "Kick Out the Jams" album (1969).
