Product Information

Mitch Ryder war in den Sechzigern einer der Erfinder der Detroiter Rock Szene. Inspiriert durch Little Richard wurde er mit seiner powergeladenen Stimme einer der besten weißen R&B Sänger.

Anfangs mit seiner Band "The Detroit Wheels", später dann mit seiner Band unter Mitch Ryder, erschien auf seinem eigenen Label 1978 das vorliegende Album "'How I Spent My Vacation' mit Songs wie 'Tough Kid', 'Freezin' In Hell' und "Nice And Easy". Nicht nur für wahre Fans ein Muss.

Product-Information:


One of the founders of the Detroit heavy rock scene, Mitch Ryder enjoyed chart success in the Sixties with a string of hits like ‘Jenny Take A Ride!’ Famed for a powerful vocal style, originally influenced by Little Richard, Mitch was hailed as one of the best white R&B singers. However, when his group, the Detroit Wheels, broke up, Ryder’s music career was put on hold for a few years. He spent time writing lyrics, painting and working on a novel before the lure of pop proved too strong. ‘How I Spent My Vacation’ marked his return to performing and features a fine new backing band. Released on Mitch’s own label in 1978, this splendid album has nine original songs laced with largely autobiographical and confessional lyrics. With a range of styles encompassing rock, soul and blues, this is a mature performance by a revered rocker who is still touring and recording.
