Détails: Three CD collection. RPM Records is pleased to present the most detailed overview of the hitmaking career of Mitch Ryder & the Detroit Wheels. Sockin’ It to You features three CDs containing all five of their albums for Crewe plus all of the non-LP 45 releases, including one LP and several single sides making their CD debut. Disc One features the albums Take A Ride which includes the single hit, ‘Jenny Take A Ride’ and « Breakout » which features the hit singles, ‘Devil with A Blue Dress’, ‘Little Latin Lupe Lu’ and ‘Breakout’. Disc Two features the album Sock It to Me and the singles ‘Sock It to Me Baby’ and ‘Takin’ All I Can Get’. Next comes the album « All Mitch Ryder Hits », a compilation set that featured one new track a version of the Motown hit for The Marvelettes, ‘Too Many Fish in The Sea’ and the vintage novelty song, ‘Three Little Fishes’. We have not included the rest of the album as all of the tracks are already featured. CD Two ends with an album never before released on CD Mitch Ryder Sings the Hits: this was a collection put together by Crewe after he had parted company with Ryder and features remixes and overdubs on a collection of songs released on previous albums and singles. Some of the tracks are very different whilst others are presented in a more subtly modified form. Disc Three completes the package with an album that was intended to launch a solo career and a collection of 45-only tracks several of which are making their CD debut. The album features the hit single ‘What Now My Love’ and ‘Blessing in Disguise’, ‘One Grain of Sand’, ‘Lights of The Night’ and ‘Ring Your Bell’ make their first appearance on a CD. The set is completed by a radio promo spot with Mitch telling teens how to keep their room tidy! The extensive booklet comes with detailed informative historical notes and numerous reproductions of news stories and reviews from the pages of American trade magazines like Billboard and Cashbox.
