After wowing audiences with a rollicking Christmas-themed release at the close of 2018, the icon of Detroit rock and soul, Mitch Ryder, returns with this superb collection of all-new recordings – Detroit Breakout!<\/em> The album celebrates both the music of Detroit as well as the classic, timeless songs of Ryder\u2019s generation. From a smokin\u2019 new version of Ryder\u2019s own blockbuster hit single \u201cDevil With A Blue Dress On\u201d to The Capitols\u2019 \u201cCool Jerk\u201d to Otis Redding\u2019s \u201c(Sittin\u2019 On) The Dock Of The Bay, Detroit Breakout!<\/em> has something for every true rock n\u2019 roller including special guest performances by fellow Motor City alumni James Williamson of The Stooges and Wayne Kramer of MC5 as well as blues legends Joe Louis Walker and Arthur Adams PLUS the New York Dolls’ Sylvain Sylvain, The Runaways’ Cherie Currie, daughter of B.B. King, Shirley King and more!
Many of the guests who contributed to the project sang the praises of both Ryder and the project as a whole: <\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cI love Mitch Ryder and I love \u2018Devil With A Blue Dress On.\u2019 Always one of my favorite songs. I had fun playing on the track.\u00a0The finished version with Mitch sounds really current.\u00a0Wow\u2026just killer!<\/em> – James Williamson (The Stooges)
\u201cI\u2019ve been smitten with Mitch Ryder since I first heard \u2018Devil With A Blue Dress On.\u2019 When asked if I\u2019d like to back this legend? Heck! I\u2019ve worked all my life for this!\u201d<\/em> –\u00a0Cherie Currie (The Runaways) <\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201c[Mitch Ryder] is among the greatest soul singers of our generation and the opportunity to play guitar on his version of \u2018Cool Jerk\u2019 is a distinct honor for me. It’s one of the greatest songs in recording history. Perfect in every way. I count this as a high-point in my career.\u201d<\/em> – Wayne Kramer (The MC5) <\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201c\u2018Dirty Water\u2019 is such a garage classic.\u00a0It\u2019s the kind of music I\u2019d listen to all the time as a kid and played in my earliest bands.\u00a0Mitch\u2019s vocals kicked ass and I really like how my guitar part turned out. I could play this kind of music all day long.\u201d<\/em> – Sylvain Sylvain (New York Dolls) <\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cIt\u2019s always a dream come true when you get an opportunity to be part of a project with one of your heroes!! I find myself in that situation, performing with Mitch Ryder.\u201d<\/em> – Joe Louis Walker <\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cThis has been an incredible experience for me. Mitch Ryder was one of my favorite singers\/bands growing up and he greatly influenced my tastes in music His songs were almost Punk before it ever existed. I feel incredibly lucky just to be a small part of his new album and I love it that he\u2019s still doing this stuff to this day. He\u2019s even older than me and still at it. Hope it lasts forever!\u201d <\/em>– Walter Lure (Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers) <\/p>\n\n\n\n


\u201cI felt absolutely chuffed to be asked to play on Mitch Ryders\u2019 cover of \u2018Have Love Will Travel.\u2019 Upon listening to his awesome vocals, I was truly inspired to get my amp up to Warp 16 and let \u2018er rip\u2014so much FUN. Thanks for having me on board, Mitch!\u201d<\/em> –\u00a0Paul Rudolph (The Pink Fairies\/Hawkwind) <\/p>\n\n\n\n
