Two medleys: “Jenny Take A Ride” consisting of the Rock’s Evergreens “C.C. Rider” and Little Richard’s “Jenny, Jenny” (1966), and “Devil With A Blue Dress On/Good Golly Miss Molly” (1966) - a single that was a million-dollar-seller - were MITCH RYDER & THE DETROIT WHEELS’ greatest hits in the brief time they played together (1965-1966).
Mitch- born as William Levise Jr. on February 26th 1945 in Detroit - then decided to continue as a solo artist and immediately scored with another Top Ten Hit with “Sock It To Me, Baby” (1967).
When I met him in New York in spring of 1979, he had just released his critically acclaimed album “How I Spent My Vacation” (1978) with songs about his break from music spotlight.
We charged headlong into the pandemonium of New York’s bars and clubs, many of which I probably would have never found without Mitch’s help.
There we discovered we were both Pisces - and went under the same motto: “Only dead fish go with the flow”.
The outcome of this was an invitation to the Rockpalast Eurovision Night at the Grugahalle in Essen, Germany on October 6th and 7th 1979. A memorable night - the “Famous Full Moon Concert” was born.
Three bands played: MITCH RYDER, Southside Johnny and The Nils Lofgren Band. And each of them was given a full day for rehearsal.
Although Mitch and his band were schedulded to play last on Saturday’s concert, their rehearsal day was Wednesday, a long time between the two. The guys spent their nights in my hotel room playing “Aggravation” and emptying my minibar. Mitch was building up the aggression he needed as an artist.
On the day of the concert the band was way beyond what could be thought of as the end of their tethers.
When Mitch finally arrived, carrying a half-empty bottle of Jack Daniels, he was completely and totally drunk.His live interview with presenter Alan Bangs now is TV history, but at the time, as the producer in charge, I was within a hair’s breadth of axing the whole thing.
But what followed was a real concert: Mitch gave his all and sung his heart out for the audience. The penetrating, impassioned cries of the soul searcher sent shivers right up our spines and deeply moved us, from “Ain’t Nobody White Can Sing The Blues” (“Naked But Not Dead”, 1979) to the final number, the Doors’ “Soul Kichen”.
On stage MITCH RYDER isn’t an easy person to take - but we learned to love him.
25 years later in 2004 MITCH RYDER performed again at the Rockpalast, this time with the US-American guitarist Robert Gillespie and the German band Engerling.
This concert too appears in this set - uncut and with the same intensity.

I saw the Rockpalast concert in 1979 live on German television. ... And since he can't get away from music, I've already seen 14 concerts with him, all of them great. The last concert was just a week ago, on February 28th, 2024 in Magdeburg, Germany.
I was there, backstage
FIRST SAW MITCH RYDER & THE DETROIT WHEELS ON THE ED SULLIVAN SHOW, A GREAT ENTERTAINER PAST IS PRESENT. THANK YOU KINDLY. 🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬🐬
Mitch Rider the original Detroit wheel. There would be no Seger or Kid Rock without him !!! God Bless Mitch 😎
Seger was gigging every night in Ann Arbor and Detroit every night when Mitch was still Billy Lee & The Rivieras. Mitch is awesome. I am a huge fan and yes...Mitch was an influence om every R&B based singer that came out of Michigan. The truth is that Seger and Mitch were both i nfluenced by the same R&B music independently and simultaneously.
Mitch walked so Bruce could run. Mitch in his prime was best rock singer I ever saw. Hands down. I was fortunate to catch him on the right night........😃😃 This band was tight but no match for the Detroit lineup. Great sound on this track! Thanks.
Cara, que cantor sensacional !!! Ótima banda ! Que show !!!
Ich war damals live dabei. Die unglaubliche, dichte Atmosphäre in der Grugahalle war unbeschreiblich.
Als ich am frühen Morgen aus der Halle kam, war es mir noch nicht bewußt, etwas unvergleichliches erlebt zu haben.
Noch Jahrzehnte später war meine Erinnerung an dieser Nacht unglaublich präsent!
big fan!!! best cover of doors ever, not an easy thing to do. Mitch Rider
Ryder had a few drinks before this legendary show, But made it somehow and his band played excellente.
A few drinks?
@@ikarus30449 a lot !
Was still a kid enjoying Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels. They rocked pretty good for the 60's.
This came up on my feed. i thought give it a go. glad i did.real music.Thank you.
In 1983 Joe Gutc the guitarist came to Florida for about six months to work for his cousin Frank(rip), who was a master builder. I worked with Joe in that time frame. He would tell us about his Mitch Ryder days. He told me about this concert specifically! Evan as far as Mitch having a little to much to drink! I'm very glad they posted this concert up so I could see it for myself!!! Damn ,Joe is an amazing slide guitar player at that!!!
Is Joe still out there?
@Heepster69 He moved away from what I heard.
@@tockpro105 ok.

Mitch im Rockpalast 6.-7.10.1979. In dieser Nacht auch noch Nils Lofgren und Sothside Johnny. Unvergesslich. Auch die Erlebnisse backstage
Fantastic audio quality. Who's the slide guitarrist?

Это настоящий рок детка!
ßpringsteen was v.influenced by him and would close his shows with a Detroit medley of Ryder songs
The best white band wheelllllll
This guy was either very drunk or on some kind of drugs. He was a very dark person but a great rock singer in the early years
