The ADC Band: All Fired Up
John Abbey, Blues & Soul, March 1979
THEIR BIOGRAPHY calls them a "funky renaissance band" and I guess that does just about sum up the ADC Band, Detroit's own band who have just come off of their first nationwide monster single, 'Long Stroke'. Right now, their album is still perched on the higher echelons of the chart and, from it, comes the new single, 'Fire Up'.
