Paul Revere & the Raiders, iconic rock and roll band from the 1960's, appear on Hollywood Palace in late 1966 with host Ray Bolger, the famous scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz. The Raiders play "The Great Airplane Strike" which is based on fact when all planes are grounded forcing the Raiders to bus their way to their next gig, but also providing a story line for this original song. The Raiders featured here are: Jim Harpo Valley, Phil Fang Volk, Mike Smitty Smith, Mark Lindsay and Paul Revere. The Raiders hold the title of having more television airings in the decade of the 60's then any other rock band in history, over 750 airings.

Just learned the bass line to this one. One of the Raiders best tunes. You never hear it get airplay on any oldies station.

"The Great Airplane Strike" - One of my favorite Paul Revere songs even though it wasn't one of their biggest hits.

They were so fun. I remember well when just a kid and watching them on "Where The Action Is", listening to their albums in the downstairs den, learning the bass lines while their LP's spun on the old hi-fi record player we had down there. And I thought those dance steps were fun, too! Such great times. Very good music to this day. Some of their songs are downright impressive, especially with Mark's vocal work. "Hungry", for example, "Just Like Me" for another... they had some kickin' sound!

Great band w' great music!! They were always very visual and fun to watch on stage. Interesting seeing the bass player using a Hofner Club bass (nice quirky tone).

The Vegas showband-ish dance steps are cheesy beyond expression. No wonder they went out of style.

I was privileged to see Paul perform in Marion, Ohio in April, 2014. He used a cane, and his son had to help him on and off stage, but his wit and showmanship were still strong. He was a professional until the end, and I'll miss him.

This was the first album I ever bought....remember where and when. Need to listen to it again tomorrow. Glad I kept all my Raider albums. You will be missed, Paul. So glad I got to see you 3 times in the past decade.

I love this because this type of entertainment was so much fun to watch. I'm mesmerized just watching the two guitar players do their little dance while playing.
