saw Mitch in 70 in Sarasota Fl. I was a live recording enthusiast and wishing I had brought my 2 track equipment to record the show. I hooked up with the sound engineer touring with Mitch and I got him to allow me to record the show through the soundboard. Needless to say I was blown away. I set up back stage and at the end of the show with the audience stomping for more Mitch approached me backstage and asked me what I was doing. Told him 'recording your show, and with that he asked to put on my head phones so he could listen. BIG smile on his face saying it was fantastic and had the audience wait for a few minutes while he listened. Will never forget that evening! Thank you Mitch!

You are so correct about ignoring the bass player as was so common back in the day, the camera work was horrible. Sometimes it was due to stationary equipment and the positioning of the musicians, but most times the camera was focused on the lead singer, or wrong musician because the cameraman was either a knot-head or caught up in the energy of the performance.

The comment that kids went crazy when the song came on in the 60s is 100% correct. I was around 17 years old at the time, and my brother was 15. We had a close friend and his name was Mark. He was about 15 or 16 years old. When the three of us were together in my car going someplace, and if this song came on the radio, Mark would reach over and turn the volume up maximum. And that was only the beginning. His body would be moving back and forth so much that he would make the car rock back and forth. He would sing along with the lyrics. But really what he really liked doing, was to scream at the appropriate moments in a very soul or funk fashion - and man, was it loud. We tended to have all of the windows rolled down and people would stare at us from all directions. One of the things that I also vividly remember, was my fear of being pulled over by the police. This was extremely prevalent in my mind. It seemed like such chaos going on inside my car with this song blasting and Mark screaming like a lunatic, it was inevitable that sooner or later we would be stopped by the police and asked to get out of the car. Fortunately, that never happened. And we never turn down the volume when this song came on - we loved to hear Mark go completely crazy, and in reality, he simply could not control himself. Honestly, even though I enjoyed this tremendously, I was always frightened that I would see the blinking red lights in my rear-view mirror. And had the police ever been within hearing distance, I know they would've yanked this right out of the car. So, when Jack says that kids went crazy when the song came on, it is the absolute complete and total truth. There must've been hundreds of thousands of listeners around the world that responded the way in which Mark had - he simply became possessed by Mitch Ryder. It was truly magical.

It was a great show...the next day, I left early for work and happened to drive past a hotel--where they were staying apparently...and there was Mitch himself sitting on a bench waiting for his airport ride. I jumped out of my vehicle and sat with him for about 20 minutes. The conversation was real and genuine. I think we covered most major social and cultural issues locally and nationally! It's a treat to have that kind of discussion with anyone, and to have it be with an icon of early rhythm and blues rock and roll...well, I would enjoy it again! Rock on!

I put Bill up there because many people don't know he was born in highland Park Michigan. But the explosion of rock'n roll in the 60s and 70s, al better part of that explosion was coming out of Michigan. And many people didn't realize it back then just as today not many know of the rock history out of Michigan. PS it's a damn shame. These Michigan musicians were not just rock'n rollers,, they were creating new genres of rock'n roll.

First off, as a "transplanted" Detroiter, I LOVE Detroit. I'm originally from Toledo, but "the D" is my adopted hometown, and I love it. Great blue collar work ethic, great, proud attitude, very gritty, diverse ethnic pockets, restaurants, etc, great sports teams & fans, . It's a very maligned American city, which is a pity / crime. I used to see ALL the Detroit bands either "live", or on Detroit TV ( Robin Seymour's "Swingin' Time"). Mitch Ryder always had great musicians around him. Jimmy McCarty ( talented enough to play on the Jimi Hendrix "posthumous" album, made up of charts Hendrix never got to finish: "Nine to The Universe" ), and Johnny B, an absolutely smokin' drummer. Mitch's band, Detroit: , which had a hit with Lou Reed's "Rock & Roll". All these musicians, in addition to Mitch Ryder who was a great singer in the "white soul voice" mold, always reinforce my sense of "Detroit pride" when it comes to contemporary music. I've listened to this track hundreds if not thousands of times, but it still makes me move,and makes me stir with Detroit pride. Absolutely timeless, and powerful!!!!!!

I met him when he played here in Winnipeg. He was in the can in a blue track suit taking a breather between sets.We were the only 2 in there. We talked for an hour. He came by and sighned ny record along with his manager. This was at the first Get Together Festival. I was working at a record booth for The Autumn Stone record store. I still have it. That was so cool.

Transistor radio, berry fields, dancing not picking berries...bought 45 on the walk home from the field (after C.C.Rider I did pick berries) and played it on my crummy record player in my room...music will never sound that powerful or liberating again.

CLASSIC. I still love this song. Another of my favorites. I remember listening to this song back in the 70's. Great soulful music for the heart and mind.

Sowas Geiles... man bedenke, wie lange das her ist! Der Mann kann singen mit ganzer Seele, super Stimme, und tanzen kann er auch.. Als man seinerzeit mehr zufällig solche Musik zu hören bekam, ging die Sonne auf... Es war einfach eine Offenbarung für junge Leute mit Gefühl für echte Musik, und das hält bis heute an. Thx Mich!

Saw him (only time) way late in his career w/ young lean'n'mean all black 4pc 'Detroit Wheels' outfit. Snowy freezing Monday night in some converted bank downtown St Louis. NOBODY turned out .. couldn't've been more than a dozen plus staff. He, and they, played their assess OFF .. two solid sets. What struck me was something I'd never known about him, having never really bought his albums just what I heard over the years on radio, that he had 3 distinct singing voices. I just knew his raspy blues shout stuff but he had a really nice straight up singing voice *plus* a drop dead beautiful BALLAD crooner voice. Those guys put a SHOW on for us that cold miserable night when they could've just cancelled.

My buddies and I saw him in 1966 at Cobo Hall in Detroit. It was a "Battle of the Bands" and he sang "Mustang Sally" as well as "Midnight Hour". Mitch was a big part of growing up days in Pontiac, Michigan. I listened to his records over and over until I nearly wore out the record needle.

Diamono Andreo I used to live about a half mile or so from McCabe's; I could walk. The other place to see amazing shows *was* At My Place, on Wilshire. Michael Ruff played there a lot; what can I say, it was the 80s. That venue is long long gone. It may have been on SMB, but don't think so.
