  • Actualy Pete and Mike did not participate in any part of the recording of this song, David Goffin took complete control in the production and Micky and Davy are the only Monkees recorded on this track. The recording started 2/26/68 with final touches not completed til 8/1/68. Goffin will bring in Russ Titelman to conduct the 15 musicians for the piece and Jack Nitzsche will handle the orchestral arraingment. Also Interesting Davys pal Leon Russell will handle keyboards.

    enjoy the info overload

  • @sassyeve2003 This is a really cool video. and great info.

  • @tigerboy1966 I still can't believe

    A. Jack Nicholson was one of the original producers of the show

    B. Charles Manson actually went to one of the auditions (legend has it)

  • I am a huge monkees fan, when i first saw head i did not get it, i would now, though.

  • Love them!!!! :) Grew up watching their tv show, and have enjoyed their music all my 45yrs - WHEEEEEEEEEE!! :D Sure hope I can see them in concert sometime:)

  • @ :29 you can see they threw a dummy in the water to cut in...lol...with long skinny arms and legs...back before CGI....woo hoo...

  • @beanoboo At last someone gets the point! It doesn't matter who played what or who copied who. What matters is what comes out of the speakers. And by that standard the Monkees ruled.

  • @sassyeve2003 I was just thinking about how The Monkees are kind of viewed as a phony Beatles rip off. However, I don't really care. Gerry Goffin and Carole King were awesome. This is a great song. Thanks for the info.

  • you don't even need to be high to be projected into another state of mind
