Quoted from The Guardian: MOTOWN CITY'S BURNING: DETROIT FROM MOTOWN TO THE STOOGES
"In 1948 John Lee Hooker moved to Detroit, got a job at Ford Motors, and captured the sound of the city through his chugging, mechanical, one-chord blues. So began a remarkable situation in which Detroit's music reflected the city's changing fortunes, from the joy of Motown at the motor industry's height to the suburban revolution of The Stooges and MC'S as the city collapsed into riots and unemployment from 1968 onwards. MC'S manager and leader of the Detroit counterculture John Sinclair is the most compelling figure, although George Clinton of Parliament/Funkadelic gets a brief look-in"
