you'll have to look around pretty hard to find a more die-hard monkees fan than myself. call me crazy, but i don't think a day goes by that i don't roll some monkees either on video or audio or both. you just can't talk me out of them for like, sheer entertainment value. their music; whether played primarily by themselves or by others, is some of the best mid-to-late 60's stuff there is. granted, micky 'the micker' dolenz was an actor when he auditioned for the show, but quickly adapted to the musical side of the deal as well. hey, you know he's not the worst drummer i've ever heard. and his voice proved to be gold in hits like 'i'm a believer' and 'last train to clarksville.' but, if you think those two songs are what the monkees are all about, you probably should dig a little deeper. all things said, i love the groovy 'micker,' and he looks cool and capable here in a shot from the fliming of thier conceptual, underrated movie 'head.' check it out.
