Gold Coast Slave Ship
The Monkees modified business plan now reads "No Davy = More Gravy!"
There's a line from the Monkees movie Head in which Davy says "And I'd like a glass of cold gravy with a hair in it, please."
First thing I thought when I read The Slave's post!
One of Jones' best lines in that is when he picks
a fight with Sonny Liston, declaring, "Million dollar head, this."
Yup, a movie up to its head in killer lines.
"From the people who gave you HEAD"

I was just the right age the fall of '66 when they came along. Loved the Monkees. Listening to them now I realize they were like baby steps to listening to more sophisticated rock. And those records are written and performed by crack studio musicians. (Especially Neil Diamond). They were like returning to an earlier stage of the Beatles, who by that time had just released Revolver. This is sad.

Two things this morning,
Chris, This video is absolutely enthralling. Thank you kindly for posting it.
Genuine love...
Sicilian, This article is perfect. I almost gagged on my coffee when I got to the end and saw it is written by Mitch Albom, a writer that I despise. Keep an open mind, huh?

Why is it that The Monkees are now considered t"cool" while The Doors, another group from the same era, are considered (by some) to be "un-cool"?
And yet the opposite was true for both bands back in their day.

Doors' boards have been aflame with irate "fans" since Manzarek and Kreiger
"revived" the band 10 years ago as "The 21st Century Doors" ... they sympathize
with Densmore, who wants nothing to do with such projects.
