January 7





Yes, Paul Revere is his real name. 
Almost.

Born Paul Revere Dick January 7, 1938 in the rock & roll hotbed of Harvard, Nebraska; Paul met Eugene Oregon's Mark Lindsay while picking up hamburger buns from the bakery where Lindsay worked.

How could that encounter not beget one of the great American rock bands of the late 60's and early 70's?



Although Mark Lindsay left for a solo career in the mid 70's, Paul Revere continues to wear the tri-cornered hat and thrill audiences before the early-bird buffet.

Before Eldee Young (1/7/1936-2/12/2007) was the "Young" in YOUNG HOLT UNLIMITED, he was a member of the RAMSEY LEWIS TRIO.
