Rick Derringer: All American Boy / Spring Fever on Super Audio CD
All American Boy / Spring Fever
The SACD uses a higher digital resolution than the audio CD and also offers the possibility to store multi-channel sound (surround sound). To enjoy the music in high-end quality, a special SACD player is required. Thanks to the hybrid function, most of the products marked "SACD" in our store can also be played on conventional CD players. In this case, however, the sound does not differ from that of a normal CD. In case of deviations, we point this out separately (non-hybrid).

Young guitar great, vocalist and entertainer Rick Derringer was just 16 when his band The McCoys recorded the Number One hit 'Hang On Sloopy' in the summer of 1965, knocking 'Yesterday' by the Beatles off the top slot. In 1969 Rick merged his talents with Johnny Winter to form Johnny Winter And ('And' referring to The McCoys)
Rick was the only producer of all gold and platinum Winter Brothers recordings
In 1971, Rick was featured on three albums; 'Johnny Winter And', 'Johnny Winter And Live' and 'Edgar Winter's White Trash'. 'And' featured the first version of Rick's 'Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo', which was also released as a single, then selected again for 'And Live'. Eventually, the busy Rick joined Edgar's White Trash full-time and produced the gold LP 'Roadwork'. Rick's solo album, 'All American Boy' was released in 1973 with now already popular 'Rock And Roll Hoochie Koo', this time as a hit single.
Throughout the 70s and 80s Rick appeared on numerous albums by artists including Alice Cooper, Todd Rundgren, Steely Dan, Cyndi Lauper, Barbara Streisand and Kiss. In the mid-80s, he discovered Weird Al Jancovic and went on to produce award-winning albums and videos, including the Michael Jackson parodies 'Eat It' and 'Who's Fat'. More recently, Rick was selected to be producer / writer / performer of the World Wrestling Federation albums, and wrote and performed Hulk Hogan's theme song, 'I Am A Real American'
