Paul Revere & The Raiders – The Essential Paul Revere and The Raiders (2-CD)
Product Details
Before the Kingsmen made "Louie Louie" a garage-rock touchstone, Paul Revere & The Raiders were cutting their own version in the Pacific Northwest, part of a regional scene that would shape American rock for decades. Mark Lindsay's snarl and the band's Revolutionary War costumes made them TV fixtures on Dick Clark's *Where The Action Is*, but the records always had real teeth, especially the Mark Lindsay and Terry Melcher productions that gave the hits their punch.
All the big hits and choice cuts by one of the precious few groups who enjoyed pop stardom and are still held in the highest esteem by '60s garage-rock collectors. Their own version of Louie, Louie joins the hits Steppin' Out; Just Like Me; Kicks; Hungry; the Great Airplane Strike; Good Thing; Ups and Downs; Him or Me-What's It Gonna Be?; I Had a Dream; Too Much Talk; Mr. Sun, Mr. Moon; Let Me; Peace of Mind; Indian Reservation; Birds of a Feather, and more!
