Did anyone else notice that he shaved 3 years off his age. I thought man he's well spoken for a 22 year old. In your early 20s 3 years is a lot. No matter. He seems like a cool guy.
Cool interview, just saw him with the Happy Together Tour in San Diego for second time 2015/2016. It appealed to me to buy an autographed pic of Mark after the show. Saw PRR in Northern Ca. at a Casino in 2001 and got all the good stuff there and met the band too.
I was only like 9 or 10 back then, but when you looked up COOL in the dictionary Mark Lindsay and the band were there. They were on TV so much. Great songs. Great band.
.. when Mstk'd hair was cut short..it dramatically changed his appearance however to this day, he is a gentleman's gentleman and highly gifted and lucky are we who have met him..the envy of some. Hope to see and chat with him again sometime in the futu8re..keep the music and memories alive Mark...Cheers to the best there ever been. You remain in hearts of countless fans and others as friends..inspiration plus you are too :)(:
Great interview! Lucky enough to meet Dick Clark, Mark, band an whole "Where the action is" group! Followed them around to different filming locations w friends! The good ole days!!!
Mark always sounded awesome and had that energy a front man should have. They all had great energy and sounded great. American Rock and Roll Royalty. They deserve a lot of credit being the most popular rock band in their time with more consecutive top 20 hits than anyone including the Beatles! Come on now! They belong in the Rock and Roll hall of fame!! Do it! Will always be a huge fan! ❤
Nuts, Dick. I was hoping for a bit more substantive questions about the music and being in a band,... but still a fun little interview even if it was WAY more "Tiger Beat" in style than I was hoping for.
Mark was actually 24 when this was shot. He didn't want to seem that much older than the girls who chased him. He's 24 here, not 22. He was born in 1942 and this was shot in '66- you do the math.
Dave Marko Correct! A lot of musicians did that back then, including Del Shannon, who was born in 1934 but to make him seem younger he said he was born in 1939.
I read something about Mark's relationship with Paul on his (Mark's) website. Mark said that he didn't get along with his own father, and so Paul became like a father figure (if I remember what was said about it correctly)
@i MAYLIKEu I looked at that several times and never noticed it said Tony!! Of course it’s Tommy. My favorite of his was Sheila, I can still remember every word of it. Named my first dog Sheila
His eyebrows seem unreal.........This is not long after a make over that changed him from a dangly nerd into one of America's best known and successful teen idols.....who due to the overload of clowning around, has failed to be taken seriously by his peers and media.... and who should be now have gained the recognition and respect that lesser bands received......
Eric Williams, given the time, it was probably just a good natured jab, as Paul was sitting right there. Paul being cheap was a standard Jack Benny style quip at the time. They did a "cheap" bit during the Atlanta Underground show one time.
Great vocalist, maybe the best of his era, but he was an ego maniac--he couldn't stand taking direction from Paul. Paul was a great businessman and a good man generally. Mark loved Mark.
A top ten all time lead rock singer who just does not get the credit I think he deserves. Guy has an awesome voice and is/was a great front man.
One of the best 'front men' ever!
Imlove American infians
@@susancornell4448 What's an infians , or do you mean indians ?
Huh? You know what you're probably right , he was part American Indian.
Decent, down to earth man, be great if there were more like him.
Mark was a great front man. He had a great voice, good looks, a good sense of humor and not too conceited!
His ego was out of control. He was always full of himself.
Mark Lindsey was my “man crush” as kids say today. I had pictures, posters, and album covers on my wall. Him and Dino Dinella, drummer of Rascals.
You and me both Linda! I kissed his pictures all the time.
I think Mark Lindsay is YUMMY!!!!
Very wise for his age!
Mark Lindsay was the first guy I had a crush on
Still do!
He was my second crush... My first was John Lennon.. I loved this group & mark's ponytail....
You and every girl on the planet!
How can you not like his honesty and sincerity…? 👍🏻
Greatest person, singer/ songwriter that ever was or will be.
Lol..are you kidding?
Huh?
Mark is such a great talent yet he remains a likeable regular guy.
Did anyone else notice that he shaved 3 years off his age. I thought man he's well spoken for a 22 year old. In your early 20s 3 years is a lot. No matter. He seems like a cool guy.
Gaaahhhh!! He was the man of my dreams!

The Aztec Calendar Channel ive watched the Happy Together Tour a couple of times, but sadly, it didn't play in our area the year Mark was featured.

They deserve to be in the rock and roll hall of fame
The Classic Car is worth a fortune $$$ today in 2022 😊🎵😊🎶🎶🎶❤️💙
Awesome 👌
He so cute. Still is.
I think the two guitarists with all that choreography is what really made the band the center of attention.
Those dancing guitarists made the band goofy.
Everyone has a Great Time With Them that is why so Likeable !
Best friends Drake and Fang just started doing steps and it became their trademark--it was different, stylish--Harpo struggled with the steps.
They were all great. That is what makes a great band but Mark Lindsay with his voice, looks and presence put them on another level.
So Handsome
That cameraman sure loved closeups!
Happy 73rd Birthday Mark!
Great interview! Lucky enough to meet Dick Clark, Mark, band an whole "Where the action is" group! Followed them around to different filming locations w friends! The good ole days!!!
I still remember going to my first concert it was Paul Revere and the Raiders.
Chicago, 1967 or 68

I am watching a TV commercial for 70s music and saw Paul Revere and the Raiders. I just had to research where are they now? That was great music!
Anyone out there remember Jerry Lynn Stapleton one of the Go-Go girls on where the action is I do
scott nordland, Jerilyn Stapleton visits our Raider Rooter Facebook group sometimes. facebook.com/groups/1505440749753060

Dick Clark was a fraud.

Fame is fleeting. He probably misses those screams and chases now.
I read something about Mark's relationship with Paul on his (Mark's) website. Mark said that he didn't get along with his own father, and so Paul became like a father figure (if I remember what was said about it correctly)
Good to go, fun band. Much better than most.
They were my very first concert ever in 1968. There were several artists that travelled with them. The only two I remember are BJ Thomas and Tony Roe
@i MAYLIKEu I looked at that several times and never noticed it said Tony!! Of course it’s Tommy. My favorite of his was Sheila, I can still remember every word of it. Named my first dog Sheila

Even as early as 1967 Mark was shitting on Paul, his employer. Paul made him a star, gave him lead billing.
Thanks for posting this! Wasn't Mark on the Dating Game as a contestant?
Pee Wee Herman and Andy Kaufman were also on the "Dating Game"... but weren't 'chosen' as a "date".
Burt Reynolds was on, but didn't get picked.
Well who won his hair??? Where is it now???
True
Any context for the jab at Paul being "...greedy and knows what he wants"?
Eric Williams, given the time, it was probably just a good natured jab, as Paul was sitting right there. Paul being cheap was a standard Jack Benny style quip at the time. They did a "cheap" bit during the Atlanta Underground show one time.
Americas sweetheart
Does he have a fan club?
Not that I am aware of at this point, but some fans are in the Raider Rooter Group on Facebook. Also the Raider Photos, Inc. Group on Facebook.
Great vocalist, maybe the best of his era, but he was an ego maniac--he couldn't stand taking direction from Paul. Paul was a great businessman and a good man generally. Mark loved Mark.
From his comments you can sense that Marc and Paul Revere were not great friends.
Was this shot at at Cielo?
he had a personality not unlike a young elvis
Yes women have different personalities and can be attracted to man 😊
22? Looks and comes across much older.
Mark,so handsome,camera work...not good.
So attractive sexy
Mark Lindsey!?
Greedy and knows what he wants!
TV band........(..reason for the ...dud tunes filler on albums )
