With a phenomenal career and legacy in music, Mitch Ryder is back in the spotlight with the release of his 2 CD album “The Roof Is On Fire”, on Ruf Records, is a wicked collection of his discography, spanning a lifetime in music that still rolls strong.

From his start in Mitch Ryder & The Detroit Wheels to today, Mitch Ryder has influenced the careers of many, with an iconic range and versatility, he has beat the odds, and now with this release celebrating his 75^th birthday, he proves his longevity in music.

Most notably famous for his song “Devil with a Blue Dress On“, Mitch has still got his power behind the microphone and on the stage.

On this deluxe 2 CD album, Mitch Ryder provides an all you can hear audio buffet of his most tasty classics and cover renditions…

Mitch Ryder’s voice, whether singing soft and soulfully or belting out the blues and rock as if he was tearing down a house, is just as rich, vibrant and unforgettable. His voice was considered a “voice of a generation”, and it still is, and now his legacy will inspire so many more.

Rediscover this amazing and larger than life artist with this huge and excitement packed 2 CD Live album, spanning a truly gifted life in performance.
