the newest Detroit sound comes from a combo called 4-4-2
Up-tempo all the way. With a 400-cube V-8 and 4-barrel carb to carry the lead. Heavy-duty front and rear suspension to smooth the beat. Acoustically tuned twin pipes to modulate the sound. And red-line tires to keep the whole score on track. That's 4-4-2. Try about four bars today. It's your kind of music! LOOK TO OLDS FOR THE NEW!
