You see, when it comes to music, age is totally irrelevant. So whether you are making music with beginners or seasoned veterans, such as I have on this compilation, the focus point is not about age but about fun and music combined. I am very familiar with most of the players on this work. Over the years, since we had our first rehearsal in a communist run youth center in East Berlin, our integrity, power, self- respect and accomplishment has grown unilaterally. For those fans who have been with us from the beginning, they will readily note that the music created with this group of musicians gives my early debut in West Germany a real run for its money. So sit back, listen and enjoy an evolutionary process that I wish would go on forever.Love,Mitch Ryder\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruf Records","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50398971986251,"sku":"2173050","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":50398970741067,"sku":"2173047","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_6083995e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726500210"},{"product_id":"take-a-ride","title":"Take A Ride...","description":"\u003cp\u003eMotor City legends Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels set unsurpassed standards for balls-out American white-boy RnB.

It's an attitude epitomised by the new Don Was (Bob Dylan, The Rolling Stones, Bonnie Raitt, Iggy Pop) -produced studio album With Love, released February 2025 on Ruf, and packed with tough, tender, personal songs that stand alongside anything in his catalogue. \"Out of the 21 studio albums that I have recorded, this one is in the top two,\" considers Ryder, refecting on a catalogue that began with 1966's Take A Ride with The Detroit Wheels. \"It is one of the most honest albums I've ever made. Not that the other ones were lies, but I was able to access previously hidden feelings.\" The stellar musicianship was certainly a catalyst, but no doubt the real driving force behind With Love are Ryder's ten new originals: as smart, satirical, witty and wry a collection of songs as the veteran songwriter has ever gathered on an album.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruf Records","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":51172674306379,"sku":"2241730","price":27.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CD","offer_id":51172673618251,"sku":"2241722","price":16.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/test_cfc85c5e_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1738081067"},{"product_id":"songs-from-the-road-1","title":"Songs From The Road","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn March 2025, Berlin’s Frannz Club was transformed for one unforgettable night into a pulsating epicenter of rock ’n’ roll as Mitch Ryder delivered a breathtaking performance, capturing the raw energy and emotional intensity for a brand-new live album.
