Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels were a great band that did not begin to get national exposure until their debut album was released on the heels of their first hit, Jenny Take A Ride. That song has, as a basis for the middle section of it, taken several lines from C.C. Rider which is a completely different song (written by Chuck Willis). What makes this a huge goof is that Dick Clark intro'd the song on his Bandstand show as C.C Rider and the producers of American Dreams made it appear as if it happened during the time of the episode (Aug 1964). Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels did not hit the charts until Jan 1966 or well over 16 months later. Dick was wrong in his intro of the song title. Of course, he really didn't listen to his producer. (edit)
