I am sitting here trying to remember a black rock group out of Detroit in the 1970s only did one album that is a classic and collectors item. This will pester to no end until I remember.

Sly was so cool!

Jimi Hendrix obviously. One of only two guitarists who can make me see light and colours when he plays. Just a creative force.

Death​

Death is a garage rock and protopunk band formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1971 by brothers Bobby, David, and Dannis Hackney. The trio started out as a funk band but switched to rock after seeing a concert by The Who. Seeing Alice Cooper play was also an inspiration. Music critic Peter Margasak retrospectively wrote that David "pushed the group in a hard-rock direction that presaged punk, and while this certainly didn’t help them find a following in the mid-70s, today it makes them look like visionaries." They could possibly be considered one of the first punk bands in the world. The band broke up by 1977 but reformed in 2009 when the Drag City label released their 70s demos for the first time. ...more on Wikipedia
