HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Red Allen, Al Bowlly, Iona Brown, Nicolas Cage, Marshall Chapman, Katie Couric, Dave Cousins, Dustin Diamond, Millard Fillmore, Five for Fighting, Gerónimo Baqueiro Foster, Juan Gabriel, the Gibson Flying V guitar (1958), Leslie Grace, Erin Gray, Clara Haskil, Sammo Hung, Zora Neale Hurston, Irrfan Khan, Linda Kozlowski, Earl Lindo, Kenny Loggins, Rick Marotta, Mike McGear (McCartney), Butterfly McQueen, Ruth Negga, Wintley Phipps, Richard Podolor, Francis Poulenc, Jean-Pierre Rampal, Jeremy Renner, John Rich, Bernadette Soubirous a.k.a. St. Bernadette of Lourdes, Kathy Valentine, guitarist Alan Lee Williams, Bernadette Soubirous, Rory Storm, and the great entertainer, Paul Dick better known as Paul Revere. The ride of Paul Revere & The Raiders began in 1958 as a rock’n’roll update on Spike Jones. Later Mark Lindsay joined and PR&TR morphed into a tight music act, pushing back on the British Invasion bands of 1964 with garage band energy. The Raiders kicked out hit after hit in multiple genres including bubblegum, country rock, hard rock, psychedelia, and soul/r’n’b, all with dazzling excellence. They cut the first definitive version of “Louie Louie” before leaving their Oregon base for Los Angeles, joining Terry Melcher (Byrds producer) to launch a prolific and innovative run of great records that still play today: “Just Like Me”, “Kicks” and (recently in the film ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD) “Good Thing,” “Hungry,” “Mr. Sun Mr. Moon,” etc. 

 

In 1965, Dick Clark expanded his television jukebox, hiring PR&TR to host three TV shows, the best known being “Where The Action Is.” Before The Monkees even twanged “Last Train to Clarksville,” PR&TR had already set the bar for TV bands, gluing pre-adolescent me to the tube with rock’n’roll comedy and ear candy—and there was eye candy for 1000s of girls screaming for front man Mark Lindsay. He is also a powerhouse vocalist, able to croon soft sensual pop ballads then flip to paint-peeling bluesy growls. 

 

The hits crested in 1971 with “Indian Reservation.” Then the band line-up shifted while Paul rode on with new back-up musicians. Over the years I’ve intersected with various Raiders (sidebar: One of my former drummers, Erik Nielsen, worked with the late Drake Levin, an under-sung guitar marvel). 

 

Fast forward to January 2008. I’d been touring with Davy Jones (Monkees) for many years, and we often shared bills with Paul and long-time Raiders Ron Foos, Doug Heath, and Danny Krause—“brothers of the road.” We were on a cruise ship, floating somewhere on the Caribbean, partaking in Paul’s 70th birthday bash. During the revelry I got into a deep discussion with Paul about stage antics and how he got his Vox organ to “rhythmically float” on TV (he wouldn’t tell me the trick). Two years later, we were in Pittsburgh PA shooting a PBS-TV special and Paul enlisted me to persuade Davy to sing “Steppin’ Stone” with The Raiders (Davy balked, saying he didn’t want to wear Raider clothes, but eventually caved in). Sadly, Paul passed in 2014, but I’m glad I had the chance to tell him in person the joy and musical instruction he showed me on record and on stage.

 

If I had to pick one PR&TR track, it’s "Too Much Talk.” It blew my mind when I was a kid—my 45 of it cracked but I kept pressing it with my fingers till the vinyl tissued (the fidelity on this clip is a tad distorted, but the visuals speak volumes)…

OK, I finally watched it. I pulled up the Grammy Awards show on Paramount+ and fast forwarded to the 17 minute mark. That opening guitar riff transported me back to the late 1980’s when I was still deeply closeted and Tracy Chapman’s music, like that of the Indigo Girls and Bruce Cockburn during that era, captured the deep longing for freedom that I felt so intensely. 

I held back the tears but then the camera cut to the audience and showed Taylor Swift standing up and singing along — and I lost it. That look on Luke Combs’ face as he was singing with her. Like he was a big kid and he could not believe he was performing with one of his heroes. And then the standing ovation and Trevor Noah saying “That’s right. That’s right. That’s right. That’s right. That’s right” over the applause. 

The New York Times got it right: 

What made Tracy Chapman’s performance feel different was the presence of the country star Luke Combs regarding Chapman with an awe-struck reverence. “He seemed to be a stand-in for the many, many people over the years — of all races, genders and generations — who have heard their deepest desires reflected in this song and wished to pay Chapman their gratitude,” our critic Lindsay Zoladz writes.

“Baywatch” 076 (1993)

Carlos Lauchu, Mark Lindsay Chapman.

A serious a-story for Stephanie about gang violence and a light-hearted b-story for CJ about a magician. Both are given equal screentime, and both hit the target and deliver exactly what they should.

New lifeguard Carlos is given a lot of scenes. He is handsome and likeable, and it's surprising that the show never brought him back.

Two very stylish montages in this one. Music by Tears for Fears and Jon Seceda.

Of this episode, co-creator Gregory J. Bonann said, in his book: “Our 2nd gang episode. Ratings thru the roof.”

MIA: Summer, Matt, Jackie.

365 DC Comics Paper Cut-Out Villains - One Villain, Every Day, All Year…

October 11th - Doctor Arcane


Anton Arcane is a diabolical scientist, alchemist and necromancer who has been obsessed with gaining immortality.  His search for life-extending processes have led him to conduct all manner of horrific and inhuman experiments.  Arcane became aware of the magical creature known as The Swamp Thing and was convinced that the creature’s floral form would prove the key to achieving immortality.  He then used his niece, Abigal, to lure The Swamp Thing to his castle in a remote region of Europe.  Arcane was initially successful in taking on The Swamp Thing’s powers and, in turn, transforming the creature back into his original human form as Alex Holland.  Upon realizing Arcane’s diabolical schemes for how he would use his powers, however, Holland took action to reverse the process.  Holland was transformed back into The Swamp Thing and, rendered back into his frail, elderly form, Arcane fell to his death.  Arcane was later resurrected by his minion creatures, The Un-Men.  He would return for subsequent battles against Swamp Thing as well as the hero Animal Man.  Dr. Arcane featured in both the first and second Swamp Thing movies, portrayed by actor Louis Jourdan; actor Mark Lindsay Chapman portrayed the villain in the Swamp Thing television series. Dr. Arcane first appeared int he pages of Swamp Thing #2 (1973).
