Drake Levin, early lead guitar.

This is the Raiders. The Raiders effectively ended when Drake Levin and Phil Volk left the band, quickly followed by Mike Smith. Freddy Weller and Keith Allison were nowhere near as talented.
A probably apocryphal story: After a performance at the Spanish Castle in Seattle, a young man who had watched from the front of the stage came up to Levin and said his playing had inspired him. Levin thanked him and asked the guy what his name was and the guy said, "Jimi Hendrix."
