MITCH RYDER "Detroit Medley" [LATE NIGHT WITH DAVID LETTERMAN 1985]

[@nyc1rob]

A sin that he’s not in the rock and roll hall of fame

[@francescadesmond8846]

@nyc1rob That place is a joke now. He was sparred that embarrassment.

[@robarnum7180]

do you get the impression that Mitch's biggest fans are right behind him here?

[@markbarnes9269]

I remember watching this live. The Rockets were my favorite band and he gave them a plug at the end but nobody knew who they were. I was disappointed.

[@roberthorton8135]

Saw him in Houston around 69. Fantastic!!

[@clevacaudill7056]

Yes he a legend no doubt.

[@daveyvane]

I’ve seen Mitch 15-20 times. Never seen him move this much.

[@marke6569]

Soul is Mitch

[@colemant6845]

Mitch Ryder... A legend in REAL rock music.

[@michaelatoz580]

Mitch was a friend of my sister Wendy and I got to see him when I was 15 years old in a1985 at a bar in Lansing Michigan called Bootlegger back stage.

[@garrison7888]

A little "Blue Eyed Soul" Mitch Ryder.

[@christopherlangdon2892]

[@kenmartin3463]

Such emotions in his voice. Brilliant

[@FriendofDorothy]

Fantastic performance! My fave was "Break Out!" but all their singles were hot.

[@Cole-b4o]

Paul's band kicked ass here, as usual.

[@klaushyden7928]

A Living Legend! Brilliant!

[@garyclark6427]

Do you think these guys were the inspiration for Huey Lewis and the News and others.

Love Mitch!! Music that kept us jammin as teenagers!

[@tomstiel7576]

[@mikesheridan4071]

Unfortunately the Great Mitch Ryder doesn't move like this anymore..

[@mitchgawlik1175]

Geez, isn't it amazing that Mitch doesn't move quite the way he did THIRTY FIVE years ago?

[@c.a.carlln0287]

BUT where it counts he still kicks ass. Unlike many of his contemporaries he can still sing.

[@jeromeblue3854]

None of us do.

[@ralphpettorossi705]

Is that Elliot Randall on guitar......and who is that drummer?

[@ChrisWeinert-i8f]

Steve Jordan is an absolute monster player. One of the greatest ever.

Thought it was HUNTER THOMPSON singing

[@LeonAllanDavis]

Pail Schaeffer...always has to steal somebody's moment. Low class. Extremely annoying.

[@NancyGrosch]

Absolutely right, always thought Schaffer was over rated, especially by himself

[@johnjeffire]

The whole "look at me" with the feet on the keys...musical equivalent of an obnoxious blowhard.

[@doughelms558]

He's white??!??

lol - I know, right.
