2019 has been a very good year for fans of Paul Revere & the Raiders music. With the recent release of Quentin Tarantino‘s latest feature film, “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” which prominently features four songs by Revere & the Raiders, there’s been a lot more interest in this great rock ‘n roll […] Aldo Pedron shared this wonderful vintage image on Facebook five years ago, which was then shared in a Flamin’ Groovies Facebook group… CHOSEN FEW 1965 PRE – FLAMIN’ GROOVIES Cyril Jordan ( guitar), George Alexander (bass), Tim Lynch (rhythm guitar) were in school together and has this band which played school dances and social […] photo by Laurelish Rudy About a week and a half ago, I had an opportunity to visit with the man formerly known as Don Gallucci. Don’s kinda like the lost and forgotten member of the original Kingsmen that recorded LOUIE LOUIE back in 1963.

The movie is called “Band Aid,” and it’s an indie film that my friend Jason Roeber found on Netflix. Because Rotten Tomatoes wrote such a wonderful description of this production, and I am feeling lazy (as well as busy with all sorts of […] Today is International LOUIE LOUIE Day! It’s also the day when Richard Berry would have celebrated his 84th if he was still with us! Today in the LOUIE LOUIE Party community page on Facebook, Len Sarfati shared a link to his LOUIE video with this special comment: This is the 2009 comment Jack […] Eleven days ago, we lost Dick Dale, an innovative guitarist that inspired a generation of musicians.
