Before the Stooges, MC5 and the Nuge there was Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels
Early in 1967, Mitch Ryder’s prototypical, riff-rockin “Sock It To Me-Baby!” became Ryder’s final Top 10 single, despite being banned on several stations for being too sexually suggestive.
Mitch and the boys will take Manhattan this Saturday at the Detroit Breakdown!
Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels, Sock it to Me, Baby!
MITCH,
UNCLE ‘WHITEY’ AND JOE WERE MY FATHER’S COUSIN.
HOW YOU DOING? I WAS WITH COUNSIN BRUCIE LAST NIGHT AT THE SIRIUS STUDIO. THOUGHT OF YOU.
IF YOU GET A MINUTE PLEASE RESPOND.
THANKS,
ROB HABER
