I love watching Where The Action Is. I have about 40 episodes on VHS. I would
love to trade with other collectors. I developed a crush on Tina Mason all over
again. I remember when I was about 8 years old, I used to tell my friends that I
had to go in to watch ACTION. They would get mad at me, especially when we were
in the middle of a baseball game. I love the low budget production values of
that great show. The way they used to cut to the kids clapping off beat with
that out of sync soundtrack. N thin' better! Wanna trade, drop me a line and if
you like obscure oldies, check out my page for this wacked out comp I released a
couple of years ago. Great stuff. CHEAPNESS rules. John

What a great web site! I too am a huge Fang fan. Janice I am so jealous. I would
give anything to include Phil & Tina in my circle of friends. I'm happy to
say that I'm an aquaintance of Mark & Deb Lindsay (but I won't claim I truly
a friend). I spent all 4 years in high school wearing a plastic c nine tooth on
a chain around my neck to show the world my undying devotion to Phil. I still
have my diary from 1967 and I don't think there is anything in it that doesn't
mention Phil, the Raiders, or WTAI. I've also been collecting Raider music since
1965 and own every album & 45 I could find from "Like Long Hair"
to the present rereleases. But my most treasured albums are
"Brotherhood", "Brotherhood, Brotherhood", and
"Joyride". I'd really like to thank you for your website. And I'd love
to thank Phil for making my teen years so full of wonderful fond memories. Fang
Forever! Love, Denise

Thanks for the insite on one of my favorite bands and for providing me
information on this particular Rock and Roll Legend Mr. Volk. I lived in Boise,
Idaho from 1967 to 1976. So basically I grew up neighbors with Paul Revere,
during his, and the bands mo t prolific period. I rediscover the Raiders music
every so often, and right now I am doing it again. I picked up a copy of
Columbia's newest CD of the Band's music. Paul Revere and the Raiders Greatest
Hits. Some of my favorite songs were not on it, but i is still a pretty good
collection. I regret missing the reunion concert, but I am glad they did it. The
band is totally awesome !.

As a starstruck 15 year old in 1966, I fell in love with Phil Volk. My then best
friend (now my sister in law) had it for Harpo. I absolutely loved the Raiders
but Phil was my guy. He and I both had the same big front teeth. I loved the way
he bounce round on the stage. Was absolutely thrilled to see pictures of how he
looks today. Still great! I'm sure he won't remember but the Raiders played
Baltimore in 1966 at the Civic Center and my sister in law and I chased the
Raiders bus down around the corner. Phil opened his window and talked to me. As
you can see, I'm an Elvis person but I always loved the Raiders. Saw them in
Dundalk this past July at the Heritage Fair and my 18 year old absolutely loved
them. I asked Paul about Phil and he told me the to get on the web site and also
said that Phil lives in Las Vegas. I would love for the "new" Raiders
and "old" Raiders to come together for a show, but if it happens
please come to Baltimore. I've been waiting a long time. Thanks for all the memories.

love your site. it answered a lot of the questions I had about what ever
happened to phil and the group. I to used to watch where the action is everday
after school.I have the very first album where phil played on half and mike
holiday on the other and th greatest hits cd. I loved his bass line on hungery,I
learned it note for note its so cool to play even now. I would love to ask him
some questions,like does he still have his old vox bass guitar still and what
ever happened to the old vox amps thay used n stage? I saw them back in 65 or 66
i'm not sure thay came to baltimore to play at the civic center. I was hanging
out with my brothers frends at a music store and a phone call came through that
thay needed two practice amps delvered to the civic center we were told to go to
the stage door and ask for hauss he was there stage manger at the time. he
invited us in and we got to stand back stage and watch the first part of the
show. it was the where the action show with steve alamno,keith allison,tina mass
on.I did see paul revere,and mark linsley but I was to scared to say anything to
them. when it was time for the show we had to take seats we could not stand back
stage.but thay gave us great seats and what a great show thay were fanstic,thay
played all th re hits and sounded just like the record I was so impressed I
still think about it to this day. and I still can see fang turn his guitar over
and it saying FANG on the back.so cool. I was probbly 14or15 then. I still love
listing to the songs there all gr at but that bass line on hungry still gets me
it is so cool.thanks for letting me share a great memory with you. hope i hear
from you. Jim Gilbert Balto Md

I got such "kicks" coming across the web sight! I'm 36, and first
discovered the Raiders in the mid seventies while rummaging in record piles at
thrift shops. After hearing the band, I spent much time "treasure
hunting" in the second-hand stores for more Raiders "treasures".
My efforts paid off big time over the years, as I was able to find so many
wonderful 45's (with sleeves!)and LP's, too. As a musician, I later had the
pleasure of playing in several bands which featured not only Raiders tunes, but
cool Vox eqipment as well! My, but those Vox "Teardrop" basses
top-heavy! I also have an interesting item, which I'd like to learn about if
anyone knows: A "Tri-corner" (black) Paul Revere and the Raiders hat!
If you have any idea as to when these were made and where folks got them, I'd
appreciate an email. Again, great web sight. Thanks for the effort!

of the band. BTW, Sundazed just re-released four more Raiders records, each with
bonus cuts. In my opinion, "Midnight Ride" is one of the great R&R
albums of the '60s. One mo e thing: I read somewhere recently that Will Lee,
bassist with The Late Show band, is a big fan of Phil's and cites him as a major
influence.

Hey, Phil -- I am very impressed with all you've done over the years developing
your music. As a bassist, you really inspired me in the 60's with the killer
bass lines, and great full bass sound you put on those great PR&R records.
"Baby Please Don't Go is one of my favorite songs of all-time and your
version is the best of the best. I love all the versions of it: Them, Amboy
Dukes, Muddy Waters, Butterfield, but nothing compares to the maniacal energy
you & the Raiders got onto wax on "Just Like US"! It was one of
the sublime moments of rock & roll -- thanks for caring and putting so much
into that recording!! I played a white Jazz Bass in the 60's, but my new love is
a Vox Phantom IV (black/white pickguard) I just love it (would have like a white
one like yours--the cooolest bass I ever did see, but couldn't find one!)--but I
notice you now play a white Jazz Bass!! Where's the Vox?? Do you still have your
PR&R gear? Hope so -- howz come the Fender? Well, you really are my favorite
bass player o all-time, and the next time the Wildcats perform this summer I'll
be playing my Phantom IV & trying to blow the roof off like you always did!
Best wishes to you, Tina & family--hope to see you play someday and say hi.

is because I was born in 1964 I have some great clips on VHS of you and the
raiders on Hullabaloo Performing KICKS and Just like me I also have a great
interview you had with Dick Clark . I'd really like the chance to meet you and
talk .. Any chance of getting Drake, Smitty and Mark to go on Tour ????? PLEASE
I really thank you for all the great music you and the Raiders did I hope you
get the respect that's been long over do for a band that truly was in the
forefront of rock n roll in the 60's and still has a unbelieveable following to
this very day .. You should already be in the Hall of fame no question about it.
I'd like to find your Brotherhood Albums any clues to where I should look???

Finally! A FANG PAGE! AAAAAHHH! I am in Raider Heaven, friends. Fang, I'll be
honest--You are the absolute BEST BASS PLAYER I have EVER HEARD! I realize that
I'm too young to have seen you on "Action," (I'm 22--RATS!)but I love
seeing all the old pictures and adore the albums. I did get to see your
"Hullabaloo" performances from 1965 and was blown away. You're just
too cool for words, my friend. My best friend found the first Brotherhood album
and I am intensely jealous of her! She's let me have a listen to it and I love
it, too! We're still looking for the others and copies for my collection. I
can't decide which of your songs is my favorite--It's a genuine toss-up between
"In My Community," "Get It On," and "Woman
Unkind"! (I've worn out those particular bands on the vinyl, I'll have you
know, and my CDs are begging for mercy!) I used to think Paul McCartney was the
best bass player I'd heard, then along comes Phil "FANG" Volk, and
he's just the living end! Are you touring soon? I hope so--Please come to
Nashville! How about getting Smitty and Drake and Mark down here, too? You know
I'd be there, with my best friend in tow because she's a Fang fan, too. (Yes, we
have found pictures from the Teen magazines and have them all over our respective

Several of my friends loved Mark, but Phil was always special to me. I bought
every magazine that he was in, memorized every song he sang (even had to special
order "The Brotherhood" because I couln't find it) and had his
pictures everywhere! I saw them in concert twice and it's some of the best
memories of my life.

Wow!!! These are the first current pictures of Phil I've seen since the early
70's. Nothing's changed -- Phil, you're still a good-looking, charasmatic guy
with talent to boot. I didn't realize you had done so many more creative things
in "the biz" thr ugh the years. Congratulations on surviving the 60's,
70's, 80's, and now the 90's with pizazz. Sorry I missed the Raiders Reunion on
Dick Clark in 1997. Hope it gets rerun someday. By the way, I have the first
"Brotherhood" album sitting right here o my shelf. Every so often, I
get it out and look at the lyrics and listen to a song or two. It's still a
piece of work. And, I have every Raider album made. Phil, you, Drake, and Smitty
were the ones who inspired me to give my own creative skills a tur at
songwriting. I started writing poetry in 1967 as a 15 year old girl, and at the
ripe old age of 38 in 1990, I had my first song published. Although my published
work is in sacred music, I love to write pop and progressive country stuff and
maybe som day I'll get a cut with my other stuff. Anyway, thanks again for being
a lifelong inspiration. Looking forward to seeing what you can do in the next
century!! I love these lines: "I knew you before, I'll know you again And
the love that we give as long as we live I believe in Forever..." From
"I Believe in Forever", c. 1968, Brobrobro Music, recorded by The
Brotherhood

Hi Phil, I saw Paul Revere & The Raiders in concert in Huntsville, Alabama
in 1967 and it is one of my favorite memories of my teen age years. I am in a
wheelchair due to a birth defect and, when the police realized that I couldn't
see the stage because of the screaming, jumping teen age girls in the audience,
they allowed me to get inside a ring that they had formed around the stage. I
was SO close to you and the rest of the group that I could literally lay my
hands on the stage. That concert remains one of my all time favorite memories.
