Paul Revere & the Raiders (also known as Raiders) was an American pop-rock band that saw considerable U.S. mainstream success in the second half of the 1960s and early 1970s, with music veering from garage rock to psychedelic pop. Signature songs include a quartet of major 1966 chart hits – "Just Like Me" (late 1965 debut), "Kicks" (ranked no. 400 on Rolling Stones list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time), "Hungry" and "Good Thing" – and "Him Or Me – What's It Gonna Be?" (1967). Plus the platinum-certified 1971 comeback no. 1 "Indian Reservation", credited to simply 'Raiders'.
