Customer Reviews of Alias Pink Fuzz [Bonus Tracks]
Not Bad Considering This was a comeback effort and the results are mixed. Rock and roll changed on the Raiders in 1967, thanks to Sgt. Peppers, the San Francisco sound and the advent of harder rock. Up to that point, The Raiders were best known for Kicks, the anti-drug anthem that appeared a couple of years earlier. By 1968-69, Paul Revere and crew were widely regarded as relics of a bygone era.
Alias Pink Fuzz was their attempt to re-enter the rock fray. When songs from the album were initally played on the radio, the Raiders were not identified as the artist...by design. Several of the songs are worth price of admission. The LP version of Let Me is a nice novelty and it's nice to get the single and LP versions in the same package. Energetic highights include Original Handy Man, Hey Babro and I Need You, as well as We Gotta All Get Together, which didn't appear on the original album. Some of the songs, Frankfort Side Street, for example, foreshadow what Mark Lindsey would subsequently record as a solo artist...sentimental pop.
This isn't a great album. Too much filler. When viewed in the context of what was being produced by others in 1969, it does not hold up well. The next album, Collage, was far more interesting...although it did not sell well and went out of print quickly.
