I can't wait to see this book, I Love The Monkees!!!!🎶😎💞

Done deal! Now, since we have proof that all the incidental music cues from the show have been harvested and isolated, we need a "feature-length" promo for this book that has all those lil' bits of music that probably won't make it on to official releases. Wouldn't that be sorta like a bonus 45 or something?

My preorder is already in. ❤

Ordered !!

The Monkees and The Beatles both made great music. That's all I care about.

I was just a Tiger Beat fan!

Nice job I like the Justus album, and I would love to hear a remixed version. The 30th anniversary of the 30th anniversary of 1996-1997 is coming up. I would love a boxset including the Justus (remix) Album, the videos, the TV episode, and updated documentary.

Great Interview !!

Coco is awesome ❤

Barbara's story is amazing!!❤

A friend of mine played with Pete in Shoe Suede Blues . Peter lived in Asford Connecticut right near my guitar tech. He signed my "Headquarters" lp❤

Thanks🎉

Go Micky!… I just love to look at him❤❤❤❤❤!

Muy brillantes the monkees ese grupo juvenil inolvidable!! Encanto de jóvenes!! Talentosos, grandes artistas, sobresalientes cada uno de ellos!! Encantadores, fantásticos, fabulosos!!! Que buenos recuerdos al escuchar sus éxitos, muy lindas románticas y tiernas melodías!!!❤

I was 12 in 1967 and went to the Monkees concert in July in Greensboro NC...Jimi Hendrix opened! Sorry to say I hardly remember any of it! Except I was crazy about Davey, of course! Wow...we are really old! ❤😂

Que linda familia de talentosos!!!

Chip, you did a wonderful job on Headquarters, and on The Girl I Knew Somewhere. The Monkees are my favorite band, and The Girl I Knew Somewhere is my favorite song ever. Special props on how you brought the cymbals forward on You Told Me, after the line "I'm leaving." It's such a great trick, and the only place I've ever heard it. It put bright, tourmaline sparkle onto an already brilliant track. A thousand thanks for bringing into musical focus such a talented and important group. You're forever the 5th Monkee in my book.

I always saw Peter was a gifted musician! I did not see Peter as a Dumbbell! I thought that he was the sweetest guy, like a pure soul of the Monkees characters!

Amazing to see rare memorabilia there that today goes for HUNDREDS of dollars. Insee the head poster hanging up at one guys booth. I wish I had a chance at buying it.

And WoW! This is also an incredible inside peek into how maneuvers, machinations and negotiations were done in the music industry at the time...🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Love both.

I would’ve asked him about Craig Smith, also known as “Maitreya Kali”. Interesting story to get into… one of the many freaky little aspects of the Laurel canyon scene.

Davy could be snotty

Peter tork gave me a dirt 😊

The best work Peter did, in my opinion, was when he played with James...

I want to keep this handy

Astounding talent him n tom

I saw Peter and James twice in the 90’s- a great show, and James seems exactly like he did at those shows, kind, friendly and very centered. A lovely man. Thank you for this great interview.

Peter wasn't that good not even in the monkies

Inolvidables the monkees

Loved giving this another listen. What a cool sounding guy, who was probably the best mating the Monkees could ever have had.

I never knew people were judging the Monkees that they were trying to copy the Beatles. So nice of Paul to say nothing but great things about them. Paul is such a great person.

Excellent.

Wonderful interview. Great Pictures all through it. Thank you. For Bobby to have Tommy not only as a song writing partner but as a "Soul" Brother is such an amazing story. I would have loved a friend and writing collaborator like that. Great story and memories Bobby. 💗✝🙏

I was there!! Tune into MONKEE MANIA RADIO on LIVE 365- STREEMA & ROKU!

Great warmed my heart

One would think the continual cash flow of Days of Our Lives would have allowed both to never have to work again.

Mr. Allison quotes Keith Richards as saying "you take a bit here, you take a bit there" when composing. Chip Douglas credits George Harrison with the same quote.

Great mix

❤

Rhino made so much on the backs of the Monkees..their attitude now and disdain for the group is sickening.

Peter was a gentle..soul ❤

Nice interview. My favorite Monkees songs, Girl That I Knew Somewhere, Magdalena, Pleasant Valley Sunday, Early Morning Blues And Greens, of course Daydream Believer and Goin' Down. I defy any rapper to nail Goin' Down like Micky did.

My favourite song is Alice Long

Good interview overall, but some obvious missed opportunities. 1.Here are 2 guys booking studio time for early Monkees albums that used THE WRECKING CREW and all you could get was a blip on Louie Shelton!? 2. Tommy gets a place in Laurel Canyon at a time when Peter and Micky were partying with Mama Cass and her A list hippie music friends and you don't ask anything about it!? Plus one of those 'friends' was Stephen Stills, who also answered the ad for Monkees tryouts. 3. Don Kirshner. We know how The Monkees felt about him, what with Nez punching a hole in the wall, wishing it was Kirshner's face. But what was the feeling of Kirshner from the Boyce and Hart point of view? Especially from being relegated to only 2 compositions on Monkees second album. Then when it came time for their solo career, why are they going toHerb Alpert's A&M records instead of Kirshner signing them to his Calendar/Kirshner label...with prospects of writing and producing upcoming Archies music. And lastly,...what was David Cassidy REALLY like? lol😀
