For those of you who don't know it, some of the very best Rock and Roll music in the world comes from... Yep! You guessed it; DETROIT!!
Right on my moter city bro
Representing here too
FUCKIN A !!!!
Rock N Roll greatest rock song ever written and performed! Should be the Lions song when they go to the Super Bowl Theme Song this year.
My Childhood hero Jimmy McCarty playing American Rock n' Roll thru 2 Twin Reverbs. God Bless America!
feel the same way, what a great guitarist
He still is! Just saw Jimmy play in Royal Oak MI. March of 2023. Great show and he's still killin it 🎸
Best Mitch Ryder tribute band I’ve heard yet. The singer really channels Billy Levise. Do you believe the sound Jim McCarty gets out of his Fender Twin Reverb!?! Johnny Bee was always a very special and smokin’ drummer. 🙏
Yea..it was a great Detroit trip bute band... that's what the band name was.. Detroit..boy is he using an echoplex on vocals or am I too loud on headphones.
Rockets were fantastic. Saw them blow many bands off the stage as the opening act.
Fantastic lead by Jim McCarty!
Don't forget the best drumer in the world Johnny Bee!
Mitch was lucky to find such talent in the Motor City Area. Later groups featured Mark Schein (lead-gold top Les Paul Deluxe) and Mark Grudgeon (bass- Fender Jazz). I saw Mitch in Atlanta in 1981... blew me away. The audience had been sitting in chairs and I went up front next to the stage before they started playing. After the first song, everyone left their seats and filled in beside and behind me. People had come from as far away away as Kentucky to see Mich Ryder for that one night.
Rick Schein...
The Mitch Ryder "Detroit" album is one of the best of its kind... rockin' R&B. Steve "Decator Gator" Hunter was the original guitarist; however, this live version featuring Jim McCarty of Buddy Miles Express and Cactus fame certainly bears scrutiny. Mitch vocals on the original recording are reminiscent of his "The Wheels" days. Lou Reed himself preferred this version of his song over his own. Great dance tune and harmonies add an extra dimension. Long Neck Goose is another great cut.
@drummer17562 You may already know it but since you didn’t mention it, Jim McCarty was also one of the original Detroit Wheels. Such a great player!
Great vocals! I am pleasantly surprised and impressed!
Detroit does rock
Dave Gilbert R.I.P.
I just turned 60... Mitch went Warren High...They say he hung out at the liquor store on 15 & Dequindre, possible lived there? By my age you know I heard him, on CKLW. Any info would be cool. I miss Dave Gilbert. I remember the good ole days, The Look, Strut, and the Rockets
The first time that I saw the Motor City Rockets, Johnny Bee was also the singer, they were 4 piece and annihilated "Lightning" and "The Son Of Cactus" at the Jackson Armory in early 74 . It was a killer concert from beginning to the end.
I'm probably wrong, but it seems like Jimmy was strokin a Les Paul Jr and a Fender Bassman head and 212 cab.
Ok my head was somewhere in the ceiling, I just know the house was rockin!!
The Industry missed it on Jimmy. He's definitely a Guitar God and has been around since 1965 with "Jenny Take a Ride".
He was better than Ted...he kept his mouth shut and let guitar do wLinh.
wow. sounds like mitch ryder himself in his younger years. very powerful version!!!!!
First time I saw Jim Mcarty was in the early 70's at the Eastown theater in Detroit when he was with the original "Cactus". Talk about 'Talent Supreme". Jim Mcarty, Tim Bogert, Carmen Appice, Rusty Day. Opening for J. Geils was a huge mistake. The crowd was still screaming for Cactus even when Geils started playing. What a performance they put out.
Yes Sir!
@carlfia56 --YES IT DOES--AND AFTER SEEING/EXPERIENCING THEM AGAIN IN DETROIT'S FILL MORE IN NOVEMBER, I GOTTA SAY, THEY JUST KEEP ON GETTIN' BETTER--ROCKET ROLL!!!
Jon, no better balls to the wall, gritty, get the f*ck outta here Detroit music or band then The Rockets @ the Filmore. Seen them several times there. Seen a ton of bands but you havent witnessed a old time Detroit concert until you see the Rockets @ the Filmore

Det Van You're right!
+Geo B Hey man THAT IS THE DRUMMER THAT PLAYED THE ORIGINAL DETROIT VERSION> IT AINT TOO FAST!!!

Ya, they sped it up a notch from the Detroit version.
It could be a live thing, adrenalin pushing the tempo.
It picked up as the tune progressed.
Ted Nugent called him a guitar god , no shit ,love Jim ,he didn'play with Hedrix for nothing, DUH
nugent is like trump all hot air and no substance. I take note of neither...I rock.
