This song said so much and made such an impression on us back then, a reminder of what human beings are capable of in the name of the law. Paul Revere organized the Raiders in 1958 in Idaho. They were the first rock group to be signed with Columbia Records. In 1965-1966 they were featured on the ABC TV five-day-a-week network show "Where the Action Is" produced by Dick Clark, and appeared on 520 ABC network shows.
In 1968 & 1969 Paul Revere co-hosted a weekly ABC series "Happening". He also co-hosted a five-day-a-week summer show, "It's Happening".
In the summer of 1971 the Raiders' recording of "Indian Reservation" sold nearly 4 million singles, making it the biggest selling record for Columbia Records in 10 years. The group has performed thousands of concerts in North America, Europe and Asia as well as being seen on major TV shows.
Paul Revere and the Raiders had 25 consecutive hit singles. Revere has continued to play shows on the oldies circuit and in Branson, Missouri with various Raiders. Lindsay is semi-retired and lives in Portland, Oregon, where he hosts a radio show on a local station KLTH 106.7FM. Keith Allison, who played in the Raiders from 1968 to 1975, has since gone into acting, and has appeared in the film Gods and Generals. In 1997, the group's classic 1966 Midnight Ride lineup (singer Mark Lindsay, guitarist Drake Levin, bassist Phil "Fang" Volk and drummer Mike "Smitty" Smith) reunited in full costume (though without Revere himself) for a 30th anniversary performance in Portland. Smith died four years later.

Several years ago Larry and I were in a video rental store and we discovered a movie we'd never heard of. I think this is one of DeNiro's best comedies that has pretty much remained unknown to alot of people. After we'd watched it, we wanted to buy a copy, but weren't able to find it anywhere, so we begged and pleaded with the guy at the store to sell it to us, and because he got tired of all our whining he gave in. I wanted to put up a clip, but I wasn't able to find anything without profanity, so here's the trailer, from 1988. Honestly, it's one of the best, if not THE best comedy ever made!
