\"Paul<\/p>\n

It’s time to get Paul Revere & the Raiders <\/strong>into this thing called the “Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.” <\/p>\n

It’s time to just DO IT!<\/p>\n

A group of dedicated Paul Revere & Raiders fans just created a website to promote this concept, and you can visit it at: RaidersRockHall.com<\/a><\/p>\n

For decades they have given us numerous hard driving, chart topping hits, set recording industry records, graced our television sets, and yes, even been pinups on our walls. It has been almost 50 since Paul Revere formed his original set of Raiders and he has never stopped giving us great music, good times, and incredible entertainment. It seems only fitting that The Raiders, after there numerous chart topping hits, record breaking number of television appearances, and amazing longevity, be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.<\/p>\n

This site is dedicated to the legend of Paul Revere and the Raiders and seeing them admitted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Please sign the petition and tell the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominating committee how you feel. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We lost drummer Michael “Smitty” Smith<\/strong> in 2001, and guitarist Drake Levin<\/strong> died a few months ago. These guys aren’t getting any younger, so if we can honor their legacy, let’s do it now while there’s still some surviving members left.<\/p>\n

At Drake Levin’s memorial in July, there were some wonderful comments that reinforced the idea that the Raiders were highly influential in inspiring others with the power of rock and roll. <\/p>\n

Here’s Paul Revere<\/strong>…<\/p>\n
