Paul Revere and the Raiders

Paul Revere and the Raiders was an American rock band that enjoyed great success in the 60's and 70's, and beyond.  Fronted by Lead singer Mark Lindsay, the band had a bunch of hits and best selling albums.  They are also a very interesting story.  They began playing together in 1958, they recorded "Louie Louie" at the same time as the Kingsmen but lost the race to record stores, they hosted three different TV shows, "Where the Action Is","Happening 68" and "It's Happening", and they even appeared on the Batman TV show. They also stayed on the charts with a string of top twenty hits, and today's forgotten oldie is one of those; from 1968 - "Too Much Talk".
