They loom large in his legend (The Album Collection playlists): Part 1; Part 2; Part 3; Part 4; Part 5; Part 6; Part 7
Active compensatory factors: Paul Revere and The Raiders were a successful pop group in the sixties but by the late sixties they needed a big dose of reinvention. Although they missed a chance by turning down a Woodstock appearance, by the early seventies they had had a name change to The Raiders and a big hit with Indian Reservation.

Sadly, this album was a cash in on that success. It's mostly covers and they are not that great. I can understand their need for a hasty product, but apart from the nifty album cover (which sucked me in) and the hit, the rest of the album doesn't hold much appeal. Their version of Eve of Destruction is terrible!
Where do they all belong? A lost opportunity, but the hit is great!
