Steve Cropper, lead guitarist for Booker T and the MG’s, noted producer for Stax Records and author, with Otis Redding of Respect was in town recently to finish, with Mitch Ryder, the DETROIT-MEMPHIS EXPERIMENT album at Tera-Shirma Studios.
Mitch Ryder is reappearing on the local scene with a new band with the old name, the Detroit Wheels. The band will be a return to the old rock, rhythm and blues style of Mitch’s mid-60’s sucesses. “We had to come back home to Detroit to find what we’d lost in New York”, commented a happy Ryder.
HIT PARADER editor Jim Delehant has left that magazine to go to Atlantic Records and work in their A and R department. Delehant edited perhaps the most under-rated and under-exposed magazine in the rock field, reaching thousands of kids every month for years with an intelligent magazine. His replacement at HIT PARADER is Richard Robinson, formerly of GO and the Pop Wire Service.
