A decent album of Sixties rock 'n' roll dance music / 4
If there was one hit group from the Sixties that I just did not get, it would be Paul Revere & The Raiders. I know they were the best selling American group in terms of fighting back against the British Invasion, a time when only the Beatles and the Rolling Stones were selling more albums, but I still think of them as the definitive B-level group form the period and off the top of my head I can never name any of their hits (I always think of Mark Lindsay's "Arizona" and "Indian Reservation" from his solo career in the Seventies). All I really remember is seeing them dressed up in faux colonial uniforms and their reputation in the annals of rock history pretty much support the idea that I did not miss much. However, they were not a bad group, they were just not a great group and did not really have a great moment, that one super hit song on which to hang their reputations. "Midnight Ride" is one of their better albums (good thing because this was the title the group was born to use sooner or later), helped by the fact that the group wrote most of the music and that all of the band members got in on the action. Lead singer Mark Lindsay turned in a decent ballad with "Little Girl in the Fourth Row" (there are two versions on this reissue album) but the two best songs here are "Kicks" by Mann & Will and "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone" by Boyce & Hart (the version by the Monkees is better). Ultimately, if I had to define Paul Revere & The Raiders I would say they made dance music. These are not songs to sing along with; you just get out on the dance floor and move your feet to the music. The bonus tracks add a bit more rock 'n' roll to the album, but those are clearly not what defined the group's sound at this point (it would change noticeably in 1967 when Drake Levin split the band. Levin and another former band member Phil Volk put together the notes for this reissue album and offer up some fan-friendly nostalgic perspectives on the glory days of their youth. The bonus tracks and the notes make me skew my rating higher than I would have gone otherwise.
Song "Kicks (w. The Raiders)"
Girl, you thought you found the answer on that magic carpet ride last
night
But when you wake up in the mornin' the world still gets you uptight
Well, there's nothin' that you ain't tried
To fill the emptiness inside
But when you come back down, girl
Still ain't feelin' right

(And don't it seem like)
Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight

No, but not with kicks
You just need help, girl

Well you think you're gonna find yourself a little piece of paradise
But it ain't happened yet, so girl, you better think twice
Don't you see no matter what you do
You'll never run away from you
And if you keep on runnin'
You'll have to pay the price

(And don't it seem like)
Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight

[Instrumental Break]

No, you don't need kicks
To help you face the world each day
That road goes nowhere
I'm gonna help you find yourself another way

(And don't it seem like)
Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
(Oh, you don't need kicks, girl)
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
(You just need help, girl)
Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight

(And don't it seem like)
Kicks just keep gettin' harder to find
(Oh, you don't need kicks, girl)
And all your kicks ain't bringin' you peace of mind
(You just need help, girl)

Before you find out it's too late, girl
You better get straight
