wikipedia:
Fifth studio album by American pop rock group Paul Revere & the Raiders. Produced by Terry Melcher and released in May 1966, the album featured the U.S. top five single "Kicks." The album also includes "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone", a song The Monkees covered and became a U.S. top 20 hit in 1967.
The album is unique in the band's discography in that it contains songwriting credits by all five bandmembers. Stylistic changes, combined with arguments over which group members were to get their songs included on the band's albums, resulted in lead guitarist Drake Levin quitting the group following the release of Midnight Ride. The album also marked the end of the band's relationship with the Brill Building music publishing house, where "Kicks" and "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone" were written.
Midnight Ride peaked at number nine on the U.S. Billboard 200 albums chart. The album was certified gold in the U.S. on March 20, 1967. Music critic Bruce Eder said the album "marked just about the pinnacle of Paul Revere & the Raiders' history as a source of great albums."The album was described in Billboard magazine as a "package of hard driving, pulsating rockers." Serene Dominic of the Phoenix New Times called the album "proof that [the band] squandered not a minute of that massive TV exposure." It is listed in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die by Robert Dimery and Michael Lydon.

Tapestry of Delights:
This Birmingham beat group formed in 1964. They relocated to Italy in the mid-sixties and actually had several albums released out there, and in other countries such as Holland. Obviously popular in Finland, as well, they also appeared in a film Topralli ("Top Rally"), directed by Yrjo Tahtela in 1966. In addition to the four UK 45s, which are all hard to find now, they also cut an acetate, Bye Bye Johnny/She Lied for Morden-based Oak records.
One of their more interesting releases was 13 Women, a Bill Haley hit, originally released in Europe, which found its way onto President for a 1968 45. One of their singles was a No 1 hit in Finland in 1965. ~ (Vernon Joynson/Mike Warth/Hitomi Ishikawa/Raimo Blomberg)

Fuzz Acid & Flowers:
A highly regarded Massachusetts punk band, who were originally known as Barry and The Remains. They had quite a reputation in the Boston area in the late sixties, and opened for The Beatles last tour in the Summer of 1966.
Strong covers and one stellar original, Why Do I Cry, prove once again that The Remains were one of the very best.
Briggs and Tashian were later part of an embryonic Flying Burrito Brothers line-up and Barry was also connected with Chirco who released one rather rare LP The Visitation on Crested Butte. He's still an active musician on the folk circuit and has published a book 'Ticket To Ride' - his diary of The Beatles last U.S. tour on which The Remains were a support act.
Although Billy Vera wrote Don't Look Back The Remains made it their own. The song was also recorded by The Instincts, and by The Rising Storm on their Calm Before LP (also featured on Endless journey - Phase 1).
In 1998 Barry, Billy, Vern and original pre-Beatles-Tour drummer Chip Damiani were invited to Spain, where they still enjoy a fanatical following, for a reunion event. This was followed by the Cavestomp '98 event nearer to home in NYC in November, and turned out to be a warm-up for a historic homecoming at the Paradise Club in Boston on 20th March 1999. Headlining with a reformed Lost and The Rising Storm, this was the ultimate Boston tea-party.
The Remains were in smokin' form, tight and rockin', with Barry's vocals in fine fettle. The band seemed to get as much of a buzz as the 600+ sell-out crowd, whose age-range attested to their timeless appeal. ~

The sixth album by the British rock band, The Pretty Things. It's the second album without founding member Dick Taylor and the first without bassist Wally Waller as a full member, who has been with the band since the band's 1967 album Emotions (however, he did produce the album, as well as sing vocals on one of the tracks). The group had a major lineup increase, by adding a violin player, a viola player and a cello player, as well as a second guitar player.

AllMusic:
After scoring a Top Five hit with "Magic" in 1975, it is incomprehensible that "January," the ultra-catchy single from Pilot's sophomore album, Second Flight, stalled at a measly number 87 in the U.S. The song was much more successful overseas, and the album from which it comes is nearly as good as the group's debut. It's hard to pinpoint exactly what it is about Pilot that inspires such fanaticism among a devoted few, but the unlikely blending of bubblegum pop with prog rock -- replete with sunny hooks, handclaps, ambiguous cliché-ridden lyrics, and stellar musicianship -- is easy to love. "Call Me Round" would have been the perfect follow-up hit had "January" performed better in the U.S., and the lovely and elaborate "Love Is" suggests the ambitious arrangements of late-'60s Beach Boys. Alan Parsons produced this album, and the instrumental "55 North 3 West" veers toward disco while anticipating the music three-fourths of the group would soon help make on the Alan Parsons Project album I Robot a year later. It's a rare treat to hear such accomplished artists apply their abilities to pure pop music. ~
