1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:05,560
Speaker 1: Now here's a highlight from Coast to Coast AM on iHeartRadio.

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 2: Mark lindsay, you have no idea what you mean to me?

3
00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:13,360
Speaker 3: Well, you have no idea what you mean to me.

4
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 2: No, I'm telling you. I was the very first album

5
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,800
Speaker 2: I ever owned. I mean, I had a very talented

6
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:23,599
Speaker 2: musician brother. We had lots of music, he had lots

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,320
Speaker 2: of albums. With the very first one of my own

8
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 2: where I could walk around and hold on to it

9
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:34,000
Speaker 2: and say, this is mine was here they come. And

10
00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 2: I played the hell out of that. I played it

11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,320
Speaker 2: over and over. I had memorized, and that began a

12
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,200
Speaker 2: long fascination with not just an enjoyment of the group,

13
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:52,159
Speaker 2: but I was always it was inspiring actually to see

14
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 2: the permutations that you all went through and you still

15
00:00:55,120 --> 00:01:00,040
Speaker 2: hung together for a very long time, even though you

16
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 2: would have gone solo a lot earlier than you did.

17
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 2: Would would wouldn't that have been the case for somebody

18
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 2: that was already being featured as the main performer in

19
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:12,679
Speaker 2: the band that you could have broken off, you know

20
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 2: after the first couple of hits.

21
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 3: Well that was actually the idea of the suits at

22
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 3: CBS in in New York. They wanted I got a

23
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:30,520
Speaker 3: call and they went to New York and they said, look,

24
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 3: we think you knew you need to go. You know,

25
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 3: you could be a giant solo artist. And they played

26
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,120
Speaker 3: me some stuff they wanted me to cut, and I said, well,

27
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 3: I gotta be honest with you, guys. I mean, I

28
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 3: love I love singing all kinds of stuff, and I do,

29
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 3: But I said, you want me to become like h

30
00:01:56,160 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 3: Gary Pack, Gary.

31
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:03,880
Speaker 2: Gary Puckett, very man alone, Yes, oh, very very Mandeloe.

32
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 3: Actually, okay, go ahead, And I said, I got a

33
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 3: rock and roll guy, but can't I can't sell you.

34
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 3: I can't. I just can't give that up. So and

35
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 3: and you know, I probably would have had a few

36
00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 3: giant hits and then it would who knows where it

37
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: would have gone, But but I would have wouldn't wouldn't

38
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 3: have been as happy as I am today.

39
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 2: Speaking of suits, I'd love to confirm some stories about

40
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:31,519
Speaker 2: you or hear how you reflect on them. Anyway, There's

41
00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 2: one legend about Paul Revere and the Raiders.

42
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: You know which you.

43
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 2: Guys are come from. Uh some people say you come

44
00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,360
Speaker 2: from Oregon, but you really came from Idaho, right there

45
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 2: was the origin?

46
00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, the band was formed first in Idaho. I

47
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 3: was born in Oregon but raised in Idaho. The band

48
00:02:53,919 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 3: first formed in Idaho. Then after Revere got drafted, Uh,

49
00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:05,360
Speaker 3: he had to he was a conscientious objector, and so

50
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 3: he had to find a place to set out them.

51
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,840
Speaker 3: His service is two year service. So went on a

52
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 3: tour and then we found this damaged state hospital in

53
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 3: Oregon which is just near Portland, and that's where he

54
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 3: did his time. And that's where after about a year,

55
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,160
Speaker 3: hiatus I went to La to try to keep the

56
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:33,399
Speaker 3: the quacking the record records with a stick to see

57
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 3: if they keep pushing, and finally I had to go

58
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:40,960
Speaker 3: back to Oregon. We started a new group there.

59
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So it was both to the beginning, yeah,

60
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 2: kind of both all right. But as the legend goes,

61
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 2: you were signed by Mitch Miller of Columbia Records, but

62
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:03,119
Speaker 2: without his specific approval because he had been against signing

63
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: any rock and roll acts, and so, as one version

64
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 2: of that story goes, you were signed to Columbia kind

65
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,919
Speaker 2: of behind his back or like without full knowledge.

66
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 3: Anyway. That's that's too. He passed on on the Beatles,

67
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:29,200
Speaker 3: yeah done. Uh, the Beatles is trying to think of

68
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 3: the best. There's there's too there's a long list of right,

69
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 3: of a lot of people they did, but we were

70
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:41,240
Speaker 3: the first rock band signed the CVS, believe it or not, you.

71
00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,279
Speaker 2: Know, I That's what I'm getting at. So that's where

72
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 2: it's It's always been said that you were the first

73
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,120
Speaker 2: rock band signed to Columbia to come out on the

74
00:04:52,120 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 2: Columbia label, and that in doing so, though it was

75
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 2: he was a force to be dealt with, obviously, Mitch Miller.

76
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: He was a giant in the industry for various reasons.

77
00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 2: And that was before Dylan. That you paved the way

78
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 2: for other famous Columbia acts that followed after you.

79
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 3: Except for one, Johnny Mathison over signed. Was he really?

80
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 3: But he's he was a crooner, right, I mean Mr Guy?

81
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah he wasn't. I mean, God bless him, but

82
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:32,560
Speaker 2: I mean, chance is all is not exactly rock and roll.

83
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: It's a good song, but that's true. He didn't fit

84
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 3: in the rock and roll category for sure, right good?

85
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 2: Oh, no, excellent RB great army singer. But all right,

86
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:48,440
Speaker 2: so those two things, now that the whole thing about

87
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 2: the uniforms, the Paul Revere and the raider uniforms. I

88
00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 2: don't know, that's kind of not No one ever disputed

89
00:05:55,240 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 2: that that was an intentional thing to sort of it's

90
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 2: sort of a friendly thumb in the eye to the

91
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:04,000
Speaker 2: British invasion.

92
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 3: Right, Well, I'll give you a quick rundown if I

93
00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 3: can make it quick. Yeah. Vere and I at the time,

94
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,359
Speaker 3: we were wearing these colorless La Joya Blazers the band

95
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:20,679
Speaker 3: in Oregon. And one day Revere and I are walking

96
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 3: down the street in Sandy Boulevard in Portland to pick

97
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 3: up our cleaning because we had a show at the

98
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 3: lake as Lego Armory that night, and uh, we happened

99
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 3: to walk past this costume shop and in the cost

100
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:35,719
Speaker 3: in this shop was with these mannequins in the window

101
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 3: wearing brayious dress, and one of them was dressed in

102
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 3: a total revolutionary regalia. I said, look, Paul, that's that's

103
00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 3: that's how the you know, that's that's how the guys

104
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:51,599
Speaker 3: used to dress back in the day. We both of

105
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 3: them looked at each other and went, huh. So we

106
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 3: walked in and he made a deal to rent enough

107
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:02,599
Speaker 3: uniforms for that night. We went. We took them to

108
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 3: the show. The first part of the show. We played

109
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 3: in our colors blazers when we did the regular thing.

110
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:13,040
Speaker 3: Then we intermission we changed into these long coats, high boots,

111
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,760
Speaker 3: placed Dicky's the whole of three cornered hats, the whole

112
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 3: whole business, and finished the show. And it was like

113
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,960
Speaker 3: the most fun it had in years, because I thought,

114
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 3: we've been costume and nobody really could know who who

115
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,640
Speaker 3: who I was, so I could do anything I wanted,

116
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 3: and I did, so the whole band just kind of

117
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 3: took on this this whole uh tenor of being just nuts.

118
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 3: And then then we then we put him, you know,

119
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,200
Speaker 3: took him back to the costume shop, went on our way.

120
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,960
Speaker 3: The next time time we came back to like Osligo

121
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: and we played and we said, well, where's your outfits?

122
00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 3: And in the end we went looking, we looked at

123
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,320
Speaker 3: each other and we went, well, maybe we got something here.

124
00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 3: So we had them made and and the rest is history.

125
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 3: As they say, those could not have been cheap, Well

126
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 3: they were sure hot.

127
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean they looked at and it uh

128
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 2: they just I mean the amount of embroidery and to

129
00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 2: do however many you did at the time that just

130
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 2: that had that had that was an investment by somebody.

131
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:31,680
Speaker 2: I'm assuming by that point, you know, CBS had assigned

132
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:34,319
Speaker 2: somebody to to your your costuming.

133
00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 3: Only I wish that was really it was out of

134
00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 3: a pocket, But was it really? Yeah? Wow, they didn't

135
00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 3: They didn't really get us. Then then they didn't. You know.

136
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 3: First of all, Mitch Miller was just he was hoping,

137
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:55,600
Speaker 3: even even though we were signed and hoping, he was

138
00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 3: hoping that that rock and roll would run its course.

139
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,559
Speaker 3: And then he gave you get back to you know,

140
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 3: Mitch Miller, right, right, And but it didn't work that way.

141
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 3: It just kept kept going and refuse to die. Right.

142
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,560
Speaker 2: So there's nothing wrong about the Great Old American Songbook,

143
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 2: you know, there's nothing.

144
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 3: But those songs.

145
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: Were pretty played out at some point, you know. I mean,

146
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 2: and the sing along with Mitch thing, that was as

147
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 2: much a gimmick as anything else. So I mean, that's

148
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 2: it worked for a while.

149
00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:32,680
Speaker 3: I did. That was cool.

150
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:35,640
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I'm not it's like Liberaci or something.

151
00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 2: You know, there's always going to be a place for

152
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 2: something like that. But but you all were and I

153
00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 2: want to go back to some of you had said,

154
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 2: is that that what you had that wild man. That

155
00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:52,319
Speaker 2: was kind of your mystique about you that you guys

156
00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 2: are kind of crazy, which was great because you were

157
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 2: playing off of or you know, doing your own version

158
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:04,880
Speaker 2: of what had become that Hard Days Night kind of

159
00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:08,720
Speaker 2: a vibe of the you know, the guys just you know,

160
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:11,400
Speaker 2: in some it wasn't just a rock band. It was

161
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 2: a clubhouse, and you guys were just you know, you

162
00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,080
Speaker 2: were being unleashed on the world.

163
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 3: I missed the last part that It's okay.

164
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it was like a little bit like you

165
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 2: guys were in a clubhouse. It was like it was

166
00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:32,280
Speaker 2: like your own you guys were just it was a

167
00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 2: fun thing. It was hard Day's night every time you

168
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:35,679
Speaker 2: were up on stage.

169
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:40,360
Speaker 3: Well after we started doing that kind of thing, and

170
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 3: I saw what what insanity did for the audience. Yeah,

171
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 3: I made you with myself that I would do something

172
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 3: different every night that we played. It was crazier, I hoped,

173
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:56,439
Speaker 3: than they'd done the night before. And it got for

174
00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:01,400
Speaker 3: you thing for a while. But but we've developed a

175
00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 3: reputation and and you know, people came from miles around

176
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 3: because they didn't know what we're gonna do.

177
00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think that was that was part of

178
00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:17,319
Speaker 2: why you had not you had not just a radio presence,

179
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 2: but in some ways I mean by becoming the house

180
00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 2: band for where the action is is that the was

181
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 2: that the show that I which I used to this Again,

182
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 2: I'm totally geeking out here, but I remember coming home

183
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:39,120
Speaker 2: from school just to try to catch that show, and

184
00:11:39,120 --> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 2: and because it was it was pretty innovative for an

185
00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: afternoon show. And there was a lot of camera work

186
00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 2: and a lot of zooming in and out, and a

187
00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 2: lot of you know, a lot of uh, the sort

188
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,800
Speaker 2: of whip takes and whatever. And but part of it

189
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 2: was just that you guys were more than just a band.

190
00:11:57,280 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 2: You just you just exuded this. You expla loaded with

191
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 2: energy and no matter where I went back to do

192
00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:06,679
Speaker 2: kind of a deep dive on things I hadn't seen

193
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,679
Speaker 2: you do or I didn't remember seeing like like that show. Uh,

194
00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 2: you were on a show called a Go Go which

195
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 2: seemed like it had rotating hosts, but I don't know

196
00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,240
Speaker 2: much about it. Do you remember being.

197
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:23,280
Speaker 3: On that show Hollywood, Go Go, Hollywood and Go Go?

198
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,240
Speaker 3: Is that what it was? Yeah? Or ulla baloo? Well,

199
00:12:27,280 --> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 3: I don't know it was.

200
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 2: Michael Landon hosted one episode and then Jerry Lewis and

201
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:36,839
Speaker 2: Gary Lewis hosted another one, and you were on both

202
00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:41,199
Speaker 2: of those. That's but you're underneath these neon lights that

203
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,200
Speaker 2: said a go go and I just wasn't sure what

204
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:47,280
Speaker 2: that was. Okay, So that was on Hullabaloo and that

205
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,840
Speaker 2: was like, and the cool the cool thing about that

206
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 2: it is not just the dancers and the crowd and everything.

207
00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 4: But you all were Yeah, no, no.

208
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 3: Not just them.

209
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 2: You guys are playing live. Yeah, right, you weren't lip syncing.

210
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,320
Speaker 2: But that's like, I look it back and I think

211
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:08,760
Speaker 2: the sixties is the era where people would go on

212
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:12,679
Speaker 2: these shows and take the easy route and and you

213
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,560
Speaker 2: guys sounded just as good live on a show like

214
00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 2: that as you did on your records.

215
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 3: Well it was we remember it was pretty simple. We

216
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 3: had guitar, bass and drums and yeah, but keyboard and

217
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:26,400
Speaker 3: that was it.

218
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, But a lot of other bands did too, and

219
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:33,560
Speaker 2: they were still lip syncing along to a record, you

220
00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 2: know that awkward, weird fade out at the end where

221
00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:40,520
Speaker 2: they tried to juice the audience to cover the fade.

222
00:13:40,840 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, we were, we were live, except for there was

223
00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 3: a couple of times we did a lip sync, and

224
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 3: we had a new a new record we just finished

225
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 3: literally like probably the night before, and we had to

226
00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 3: do it on action, and I didn't know the song.

227
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 3: They played the track and I had the I knew

228
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,560
Speaker 3: the sound people. I had him open them my mic

229
00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:11,320
Speaker 3: so I could sing live and and Dick Clark has

230
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,960
Speaker 3: gone now but if he heard this, if he's hearing

231
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:17,920
Speaker 3: this now, yeah, really he's going to pull my a

232
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 3: FM card because his the price he had to pay

233
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:28,320
Speaker 3: for a live performance was way more than than lip sync.

234
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 3: But the only I could I could get the you know,

235
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:34,000
Speaker 3: I mean if I if I lip sink, it would

236
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:36,840
Speaker 3: have really been a terrible lip sync. So I did

237
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 3: it live and nobody ever knew it sounded just as

238
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 3: good as that whatever is it normally? Did you know?

239
00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think that's a tribute to you all too.

240
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,640
Speaker 2: That and the AAW brings me to another one of

241
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 2: those myths I wanted to confirm was that with very

242
00:14:54,320 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 2: I don't want to say this, don't don't kill the

243
00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 2: messenger on this, but with very few exceptions, you all

244
00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 2: were known as playing all of your own instruments. But

245
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 2: there were a few occasions when members of the Wrecking

246
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 2: crew came in and provided a backing track.

247
00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 4: True or false, It's that's true. The Raiders we we

248
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 4: we soldiered on to to to use using a time

249
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 4: warn praise. But during that time in sixty seven, uh

250
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 4: three of the guys left the group, the drummer, the.

251
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,960
Speaker 3: Guitar player and the bass player. And so we replaced

252
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:40,960
Speaker 3: all three of those guys. But they were they were

253
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,480
Speaker 3: like pretty green and didn't have the vibe yet, so

254
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 3: we you know, in this and they weren't really familiar

255
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 3: with the studio at all. So we had the breaking

256
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 3: crew in for for quite a few tracks and it went,

257
00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 3: you know, it went on, and when the Raiders were

258
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 3: competent and I could use them, and I started producing

259
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 3: about that time too, I could use them on the tracks.

260
00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 3: I used the Raiders, and when when they they wanted

261
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,440
Speaker 3: it a little bit, I would use the guys for

262
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:17,320
Speaker 3: recon crew. And they were they they always came.
