Hey Guys!! yeah you :D ! LIKE BOTH MONKEES AND BEATLES???? THEN............ Join the Club!!!! go to my channel BeatlesMonkees post on my wall or message me :D Come on guys. THE FIRST EVER MONKEES/BEATLES FAN CLUB!!
Just saw the Monkees in concert last week. It was fantastic. They still sound and look great. I just love those guys. There were people there of all ages and it was like a giant party.
@paloma598 They're mostly known as Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork, but were born George Michael Dolenz Jr. and Peter Halsten Thorkelson. Haha, I love Micky's hair. :)
@sarame287 Wasn't the nonsensical lyric based on Bill Cosby? I seem to recall reading that. it was an homage to Bill Cosby doing that in his comedy act.
Wow, John Fogerty totally stole the melody of the first 2 lines when he sang "Travelin' Band". No Time was released in 1967; Travelin' Band came out in 1970. I guess John was a Monkees fan.
This is cool! It makes you want to dance! And I love the clothes, particularly Micky's flowered caftan (is that what it's called? No matter, it's awesome, whatever it is!) and Davy's intricately patterned jacket!
I always thought it was odd that they had Mike be the one to step the wrong way, since on the show it was Peter who played a sort of dorky character who might do something like that...
@susandiane Thanks :) I actually *did* know what it's called, but at the time I was typing that comment I couldn't bring the right word to mind. When it finally occurred to me later, I didn't ever get around to correcting myself.
Actually, Micky isn't wearing a real poncho at all, but rather a tablecloth he bought and cut a hole in. Totally groovy!
@bkthin And in a lot of other places, like interviews and commentaries. I actualy learned the tablecloth fact from reading Monkees trivia and such on the Web.
I really LOVE that tablecloth for some reason. I wish I had one like it; I'd wear it all the time! :D
@HitlerWasRight2010 i want my mom to take me to that concert (i'm only 12 and she got me hooked), that would be awesome! but i thought i read that Davy died
The title comes from the group needing one more song but had "no time" to find one, the album's due date was approaching fast. So Mike and Micky strung together a series of one-liners, improvised the melody in the studio and recorded it live - no overdubs. The songwriting was credited to Hank Cicala, their studio engineer whom they all really liked, so he could get a piece of the royalties.
um my dad is a big monkees fan so we owned all the vhs tapes as a kid and now we bought both seasons on dvd...you should totally buy them its worth every penny!
@glamourgal2234 Wow! This is just awesome!! Reading that 13-year olds and 15-year olds today are loving the Monkees!! (I was 19 when I became a Monkee fan in 1986). I'm 44 today and they still bring a smile to my face. I'm so glad to know young people today are enjoying them. They are a talent that will never die!
unless you are a drummer the hardest thing to do is sing and drum. I feel for Mickey having to pretend to drum while delivering sme of the most soulfu and memorable lyrics of the era
@thanksforthemessdick Micky dolenz is a acomplished drummer, you can´t appreciate it in lip-sincs clips like this video clip but when you watch them live them you say: "Yeah, he´s real..." by the way, he´s soulful... you´re right...
Saw them do this live, Micky rocked his ass off! These guys took too much flack for being a fake band. It was only their first 2 albums for which they all didn't participate musically. On their 3rd album they won artistic control, played instruments, wrote songs, arranged everything and much to the surprise of the critics they released a brilliant album.
Love these guys..... Yeah George Michael Dolenz is good as a singer... they are. School days I had the biggest crush on Mickey (along with some others). HA! I still enjoy listening to these guys and would still watch their show and the Movie Head.
Mickey is a hell of a singer. This song is straight ahead rock and roll, like Chuck Berry, Little Richard or early Beatles, and Mickey rocks it. LIsten to "Going Down" and he can scat out a blues riff.
the monkees are the shit!!! they need to induct them into the rock hall before they pass!!! they have some great music and are extremely talented guy!!!! NOT FAIR!!!!!
Does anyone who knows anything about Rock n' Roll seriously think that these guys deserve a place in line in front of the Shangri Las? Isn't the RNRHOF a big enough joke as it is?
AS long as Jann Wenner is alive, Its my opinion that he'll block any attempt to induct the Monkees as well as the Raiders, Hermits Sonics, & other acts not perceived to meet his standards of "hipness". What Wenner did to the DC5 is a shame & disgrace-they reportedly got more votes than Grandmaster Flash (who is NOT rock & roll in my book) but Wenner reportedly decided "its time to induct a hip-hop act". Mike Smith should've enjoyed this moment before he died. Wenner, I hope you rot in hell
Agreed Bop, however in my opinion the Monkees do not deserve to be in the R&R Hall of Fame. They were a fabricated band for a television show. Almost all of their records were backed by studio musicans and aside from Nesmith, they created no original tunes. They were television performers...period. Pretending to be a legitimate band caused a lot of resentment towards them, and rightfully so.
the monkees should be in for 2 reasons: the introduction jimi hendrix to american audiences. & white out (just kidding). the moog synth. true, they were a pre-fab band,but they became a band.
Not really.... Peter taught him a couple basic rhythms as early as the pilot episode's filming. Because they were jamming as early as off times of filming. So before the show aired... actually.
wanna bet? I already knew that. massive Monkeemania freak. I try to find out everything and anything out about the monkees. My favorite band. And Micky is my fave on top of that.
And no, Micky did NOT have his hair permed, he was having it pressed straight all the time. This was his natural look, he wanted to finally give his hair a break from pressing and earlier on being Peroxided blonde(!) for his earlier show "Circus Boy"(billed as Mickey Braddock )
He said the same woman who bleached his hair was the same woman who later pressed it out! Crazy!
In the 70's I think he did get it permed, it didn't look natural anymore.
I have seen every episode of the monkees, including there movie head. I love them!!!!! I wish i was a kid in the 60's I would have been able to see them in concert!! :(
You didn't hafta be a kid in the 60's to see them live. I took my mom to see them at what used to be Irvine Gardens. The opening acts were Gary Pucket, Hermins hermits and something about grass. I think they said stop children. and mrs jones youve a lovely daughter.
@ponfarr69 Grass Roots. :) (Mrs. Jones You've Got a Lovely Daughter). Gary Puckett and the Union Gapp. and Herman's Hermitts. They opened for the Monkees in 1986. :)
@retroalex1 I've also seen all the Monkees episodes. I bought the boxed sets (season 1 and 2) from Amazon.com. I'm sure they have the movie Head too. The boxed sets are fantastic. They have commentaries from all four Monkees.
@STUNNASHADESxo The Monkees toured with Weird Al back in 1985 or 86. It was my very first concert! (unfortunately, I don´t remember much, since I was only 3...)
@HitlerWasRight2010I believe their tour starts in June. I went to see Davy and Peter Noone last week and Aviva, a member of Davy's band told me this. She will be playing for the Monkees.

@retroalex1 I've also seen all the Monkees episodes. I bought the boxed sets (season 1 and 2) from Amazon.com. I'm sure they have the movie Head too. The boxed sets are fantastic. They have commentaries from all four Monkees.

@STUNNASHADESxo The Monkees toured with Weird Al back in 1985 or 86. It was my very first concert! (unfortunately, I don´t remember much, since I was only 3...)

@STUNNASHADESxo : They regrouped (sans Mike) in the 80s and 90s. I got to see them in concert twice. They were, indeed, awesome.

@STUNNASHADESxo I just recently read that The Monkees are planning a reunion tour in 2011.

@HitlerWasRight2010I believe their tour starts in June. I went to see Davy and Peter Noone last week and Aviva, a member of Davy's band told me this. She will be playing for the Monkees.
