This 45 RPM Vinyl Record is being released to honor one of my favorite 1960s garage band, “The Knight Raiders” and to celebrate the 55th anniversary of their never-released hit song “Hang It Up (I Don’t Want To Hear It).”

So, sit back, relax and let yourself drift back to a time when rock & roll was king as the Knight Raiders pound it out the way it was meant to be played. This is rock & roll at its best! Enjoy!

Here’s what past customers have said:

“Hang It Up is Incredible. As for comparisons, Paul Revere & The Raiders may be great, but the Knight Raiders are pure genius!“ -Bosshoss, G45 Central Music Forum*

“GREAT song!! 'Hang It Up' definitely holds its own with some of the heavy-hitters of the teenbeat/garage genre. I for one would love to get a repro copy of the 45, and I'm sure many others here would as well. “ -Ryan L., G45 Central Music Forum*

"Lightning Fast Shipping, Expert Packing. Best New Release for 2023-Buy or Die! Highly Recommended Seller, A+" -Bob B., Chicago, Il
