Today's Forgotten Oldie...

Paul Revere and the Raiders were an American rock band from Boise, Idaho that had a long string of hits in the 60's.  An obvious answer to the British invasion, the Raiders even wore American Revolutionary War soldier's uniforms... subtle eh?  Another instance of a band that would probably have been even bigger without record executives that wanted each song to sound like the last one, the Raiders still captured a huge number of fans.  "Too Much Talk" was a top twenty hit in 1968 for the Raiders, a solid song that's somehow disappeared from the airwaves.
