KICKS--PAUL REVERE & THE RAIDERS (NEW ENHANCED VERSION) HD AUDIO

[@jeffthewhiff]

Still waiting to see if the Raiders ever make the RRHOF someday. They certainly deserve it!

[@garypmarquis]

Well, you did a great job here. Being 66 YO and still loving this song did me good to listen to your work here and thanks again.

[@cinematic35]

I need to redo this one and give it a complete makeover! Kenn

[@gdholmfirth]

@@cinematic35 I love your work and enjoy listening to the finished product. But if you are going to redo this one I might suggest you enhance it just slightly less. This is the only one you have done that I thought would be a little better if you backed off slightly on the enhancement. This is no criticism, your work is great, but this one may be a little less perfect than the others. The best ones are the ones I listen to and can't figure out what you added.

[@tantraman10]

@@gdholmfirth I'm with the 40 people below!! Love all of the things here that I could not hear in the original!!

[@academicjock]

Simply fantastic. So many sounds I never heard before. THANKS!

[@donharder2737]

YAYA VERY GOOD....

[@thepirate5955]

Honest to goodness, I've NEVER heard many of these guitar parts in this song until You Tube came along. I was 12 years old and lived in Spain when this first came out & had not yet started playing guitar. We came back to the states in 1967, so I got to watch their television show. Now, after playing guitar for over 50 years, the guitar parts are pure ear candy - lots of studio production really rounds out this song - always a catchy sort of tune with some nice elements. Well done! Thank you for posting.

[@dereton33]

Brilliant job, never heard this track sound this good.

[@cinematic35]

Thanks! It gave me a major headache cause I had to work on it 16 hours to get all the sounds to match. There is bongos, clapping, tamborine, extra vocal harmonies, Epiphone electric guitar, 12 string acoustic, keyboard sounds and extra bass guitar. The amazing thing here is that any song by any artist can be done like that! Kenn

[@dereton33]

Well you certainly did a fantastic job. I have a high quality Naim system hi fi and wow, what a difference over my original track.

[@tantraman10]

@@cinematic35 Thank you!! It's fantastic!!

[@tombalthis513]

This was the knockout musical punch song for them!!! It made them a unique special band in a special time period in modern musical history!!!

[@angelafisher299]

This is one of my all time favorite 60s songs and the quality of the video is great. Thanks!!!!

[@alanstrong3295]

Love that song. Mark sung it just right. Paul Revere, RIP

[@georgeralph8031]

Probably the first anti-drug song to come out during the pro-hippie, pro-experimentation, counterculture era of the late 60's.

[@jamessnyder9692]

George - As I recall 'Paint It Black' by the Stones came before 'Gloria'. Paint It Black was about as anti-drug as you can get

[@rintintin8446]

Thanks for the heads-up! Never really listened to words.

[@robertmalone5985]

And then Along Comes Mary

[@robertmalone5985]

The week that this song was #4 on Billboard's Hot 100, Bob Dylan was telling us at #2, Everybody must get stoned.

[@richardschaefer4807]

Great lyrics, pounding beat and good vocals...Brings back my high school days!

[@frankh.valenzuelaabuelotej652]

I totally commend your excellent job with the clarity & quality of sound. Love it.

[@lizdavis4310]

That was splendid! One of my VERY favorite songs sounding PERFECT! Thanks for the post, WOW.

[@adwebbjr6]

Stay away from drugs kids. A rare good message from a band during those days. A good message from any artist anytime.

[@rahumada5051]

take me at least 50 years back, thank you man cinematic35 for this

[@salchaos]

Great job on enhancing the song. I hear stuff on this that I hadn't on the original. Like the handclaps and chord voicings. Also an added guitar I hadn't heard before. Amazing.

[@garypmarquis]

OMG-WTF, I still love this song, since my youth. Thanx for posting it. These guys always rocked.

[@edwardchandler9373]

I have to say " well done" ! Great clarity in sound. Thanks!

[@burlingtonbill1]

You really need to hear this over stereo cans (headphones / ear buds) to appreciate the amazing improvement Kenn has wrought to this classic song ! WOW !

[@cme98]

Tried that, sounds awefully trebly tho especially in the ssss sounds. It seems as though Apple hasn't gotten around to inventing anything resembling an equalizer or even a treble/bass function for my brand new iPhone. But god damn what a camera? And screen resolution? Friken faaabuuuulous, right? I can't even crank it for long periods such as the length of this awesome song without a warning window popping up, the sound turned way down, by choice of not me i do t know wtf turns it down, the warning window says, "your volume was turned down because we here at apple care about your hearing. This setting is mandatory & can not be turned off. We do this to protect your hearing. Because you stupid we Apple we know whats best for you. We dont care you spent $1,000 loser we still own your fucking phone. Got that? Scouts honor the truth!

[@alanstrong55]

Love that tune. Takes me back.

[@BURTBROWN]

I like it!!! I can hear many more instrument parts than in other versions... I must admit that overall it is a bit bright, but that's part of bringing out the detail of each instrument. Great work, thanks for taking the time to do so!!!!!!

[@DanielLeoSimpson]

1:40 So weird, D major chord against D minor chord bar 3 of the 'soft' bridge section ('No, you don't' need kicks, to help you FACE") which I assume was always there but pushed way back in the mix so the more suitable Dm came out in the final mix. Fascinating...

[@RandyR]

Yes, KICKS are getting harder to find. But I am damn determined to not throw away 23 years clean an sober. Thank God for My Higher Power, Music and Memories. Got to see these guys twice live an they were great

[@ronzahler860]

thank you for your efforts, SIR...

[@PatriciaAMarx]

Your 🎶music is excellent!!!!!! Thank 😊you!

[@fearwidge]

Hey cinematic35... If you're on Facebook, join the "Raider Rooter" group (HARDCORE Paul Revere & the Raiders' fans). They're currently RAVING over the work you did on "Kicks" and darn near BEGGING for more. Congratulations. You're a HIT.

[@timbryant2259]

Very good job - it really brings out the various instruments and the hand claps as well. I really like it. Thanks, man!

[@ThePhantommigkiller]

Thank You Kenn , LOVE IT My Friend ! Cool sounding backround music and claps you added ! Your Oldies Friend Always Frank

[@RobbiesVideoArchives]

So much going on here, the handclaps being my favorite touch. Such a simple thing but it adds so much.

[@timbryant2259]

Agree! I don't remember them from the Goodle Days.

[@pattibrooks1907]

Love this 60s 70s group ! Love 60s 70s music ! Enjoy your channel and all the songs you play !

[@denisesmith835]

classic...WOW I loved them...love this song

[@Gumshrud]

A talent I don't have, the music is incredible.

[@JackieBowling-ss7mt]

I watched this show with my nephew in the 60s

[@billgonzales8978]

u must be old

[@garypmarquis]

Yeah Baby, I've loved this song since the 60's...Yup, i'm an old guy, so what,..anyway, this song brings back sooo much...please carry it on...Please.

[@TIMROZIERLOCAL513]

I remember dragging out my parents LP I was either three or four, managed to play kicks over and over again... lol this must have been around 1978 or 79.

[@garypmarquis]

GDI, i'm proud of you...not many even remember this great song , let alone can state playing it during their younger years,,....thank you bro.

[@dr.OgataSerizawa]

Never sounded this good at my 8th grade sock hop! 55 years ago…..where’d the time go?

[@thisistheworldtoday]

Sounds really good... he was on the cover of all the teen mags before David Cassidy and boy bands there was .... Mark Lindsay

[@garypmarquis]

This is my most faveorite song of this band. Listened to it many times over. This song should be the 'poster song' for the anti-drug movement across all lands. I'm serious, this song sends the message. Signed, a former user from long ago.

[@moonbeam7702]

It's awesome - thank you for all your hard work and for uploading this!! :-D

[@GeorgiaPresti]

Great, great band & great great song!!

[@jamesduclos2545]

Great job Kenn bringing out the acoustic and electric guitars, plus the hand claps!

[@maaaaac56]

As an unabashed Raiders fan I think this is your best effort to date.

[@billykump1155]

Sounds 100 percent better than my old 45 rpm record thank you for sharing this i love it :)

[@michaelbeckwith6177]

"And if you keep on running you'll have to pay the price. I have no idea about technicalities but I love your videos!!!!

[@TheEdb23]

Kenn: Thanks for your time and effort. You created a fabulous version of this song. Your mix sounds great! Hope your headache is better! EDB

[@davidcadams3001]

all your hard work total dedication & time has paid off big time on this fantastic re mix - your effort was not in vane - shared this great classic to a younger generation - such a powerful message in this song ... just hope it get's through to the now newer generation ...

[@9496TULL]

one of my favorite bands

[@davidroberts1702]

Jan '66, basic training, Fort Ord, walking back to the barracks in loose formation, this came on (hidden transistor radio), and I started dancing, hell with marching, even the DI cracked up lol. Things got worse later in that 3 year duty but this song and that brief moment will remain till I drop.

[@billgonzales8978]

U made it

[@obbor4]

The first band that I ever saw live. They played their final show at Knott's Berry Farm, in Buena Park, California. I just happened o be at the park with a group of friends when they played a set at the John Wayne Theater. My first paid show was Frank Zappa and the Mothers, at The Forum, in Inglewood, a few years later.

[@matthewnoe4232]

best sounding version online. thanks for doing it.

[@wilmamckee3448]

Watched there show all the time in the 60s.

[@TheSirjohn2012]

This is so great and in the format of STEREOWIDE really makes it much better than the regular stereo versions of it the added dementions are good too.

[@tomconnolly213]

EXCELLENT job! This song sounds soooo much better with your enhancement! 👍

[@jamespaul408]

Love this great song

[@greitje50]

The first 45 I was allowed to buy! Great sound.

[@debgibsonfan]

Wow....very interesting how different this sounds. Love it!

[@laurin4405]

Great job... Lots of the versions you hear over the years "sound" Old... This has the Sound Quality comparable to Recently laid-down stuff

[@michauxbôts]

I'm honestly shocked that you were able to clean up the audio on this track so well.

[@kellymccartney659]

always loved the original raiders

[@debfrazin1344]

This mix is AMAZING!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@charleskuckel3173]

Great version of the classic song. Maybe you could do an "enhanced version" of Indian Reservation which is my favorite song by the group. I NEVER saw the band perform live but I did get to meet "Paul Revere" late in his life. He was the LAST "Madman of Rock and Roll". I miss their music.

[@jeffmitchell9214]

Another Masterpiece!!

[@josemoreno3334]

Love this tune. Sounds clear. Anti-drug song.

[@Gumshrud1]

there have been no new releases because, I found out, Kenn passed away in Jan 22. sorry, Kenn had such talent.

[@steveweber2436]

Fantastic sound

[@jeffcher10]

Excellent track - Not sure which came first, but it reminds me a little of I just dropped in to see what condition by Kenny Rogers.

[@alancherkoff9198]

incredible job sounds amazing

[@michaelserby7697]

Classic Raiders 🇺🇸 🖤

[@rickykay9516]

I don't think there are any original members in the current lineup of Paul Revere and the Raiders. They play in Las Vegas all the time. Mark Lindsay is at some of the "Happy Together" tours around in the summer time.

[@rolo1955]

Never really cared for the line up after the original Raiders left the group and formed their own band Brotherhood. Always thought Freddie Welder was more country and did not quite fit. The Raiders from 1962-1967 produced that hard driving original rock sound with hits like Louie Louie, Just Like Me, Stepping Out, kicks,Hungry,Good Thing,Great Airplane Strike, I'm mean these guy were a true hit making machine that kept the British at bay right in the middle of the British Invasion.

[@Craigs_Cartoon_Capers]

Nice! Now how about "Good Thing" or "Hungry?"

[@robertmalone5985]

Just Like Me 🙂🙂

[@kit1951]

good job, video & audio(sounds super on my 7.1 surround system)

[@mowm88]

These guys were quite good....isn't the Wrecking Crew on this though? Nice job sir. As usual.

[@alnickel4914]

Every song is the Wrecking Crew. LOL .

[@russellcrawford7453]

I think the only one from The Wrecking Crew on this song is the drummer Hal Blaine. The base is Fang the guitar is Drake Levin. Howdy from Dallas Texas

Excellent!

The Wrecking Crew. Carole Kaye on bass. Brilliant.

[@fvshkatie]

Kicks was pretty early and Phil "Fang" Volk has said in the past that "Good Thing" was the last track that band played on, so the bass player would be Fang.

[@patbarker4699]

Great song!!!

[@Joe-bx4wn]

Good Song!

[@michaelfreeman3922]

They were on TV after school. Thats when you couldn't find us kids playing outside. The name of the show was Where The Action Is.

[@BonnieSauter]

Awesome job!

[@dhutton77]

If you are looking for suggestions, please consider The Temptations--I don't think I see anything yet; If you do, You're My Everything, not one of their biggest hits, is an incredible song; and next would be Beauty's Only Skin Deep, of course!

[@milt6208]

Not many people remember them but they were great.

[@DTittle]

PERFECT! Don't change a damn thing.

[@tracyyoung7372]

"Where the Action Is" tv show!

[@donandrews4357]

Seen the raiders in AC a few yrs ago they were great

[@WiredNow]

In 1964, K-POI radio told us about Paul Revere and the Raiders were coming to Honolulu to play at a high school prom! Anybody go to that? Which high school? Punahou?
