RIP Paul Revere

[Black Adder]

The keyboard player and founder of one of the goofiest-looking, but very good, bands from the 60's has passed away.

Consistently good songs. He enjoyed what he was doing, and was still doing the casino touring up until the end.

Paul Revere and the Raiders. Definitely a classic '70's. We're all getting older, aren't we?

My aunt met Paul Revere a few times on the casino tours and said he was one of the nicest and kindest men she's ever met. A consummate pro and showman. RIP.

"Cherokee People, Cherokee Tribe..." 1971-Indian Reservation Paul Revere Dick age 76. Died 10/4/2014. Cool guy, cool times. Glad to have lived it.

Population of the earth 1971- 3.75 billion. Current earth population- 7.7 billion. Something to ponder.

"Kicks" is on my playlist today.

That's sad. Rest in peace.

Goofy image but a solid band. Had their greatest hits on 8-track back in the day.

Rest easy.

Aw darn. I hadn't heard about his death until right now. That band was behind a lot of my good times. Some picks:
Just Like Me
Louie Louie
Kicks
Just 17
You Can't Sit Down
Ooh-Poo-Pah-Doo
