Goodbye to an old friend, Paul Revere

Goodbye to an old friend, Paul Revere
Posted on October 4, 2014 .

It is with great sadness that The Ventures mourn the loss of a rock legend, and a good friend. Don Wilson just told me that, back in the 1960s, The Ventures and The Raiders played on the same bill a number of times. Paul Revere had moved from Idaho to Washington State, so that groups were well-known to one another. When Experience Music Project, the music museum in Seattle, opened in June 2000, we all had the pleasure of participating in the concerts to celebrate the opening. Over the years, we had discussed the possibility of working on a rock and roll cruise with Paul Revere but, sadly, that never materialized. All of us with The Ventures will remember his infectious personality and his great contributions to the rock world.
