Perfect Overview
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I read this book back when I was a teenage fanatic of the band, and I loved it then. But then it wasn't hard to love it then, [...]. But I have gone back and read through this again and it stands the test of time. I'm really glad Eric Lefcowitz wanted to sit down and put together this compendium. I highly recommend it!
The Most Fascinating Group of All-Time
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The Monkees were not just a manufactured image as some would have you believe. Micky, Davy, Peter and Mike were REAL talents and so were the talented songwriters and producers who helped them create their timeless pop music. Throw Jack Nicholson and Jimi Hendrix into the mix and you have a fascinating time capsule of the 1960s cultural ferment. Highly recommended!
I Love This Book!

This is a great book about a great group--I must have read it twenty times and I keep getting new insights. A must for fans of 60s pop music and the Monkees.
Hey Hey They're Still the Monkees!

This book originally came out in 1986, before the "reunion" tour, and provided in-depth interviews with Mickey, Davey, Peter, and Mike, complete discography, a listing of the original 58 shows, and was loaded with photos. In 1990, Lefcowitz updated it, adding information about their 1986-87 reunion (sans Mike) and their 1987 album release Pool It. This is recommended to Monkees fans everywhere. However, the story goes on from this book and it would be nice if Lefcowitz updated it. In 1996, the Monkees reuinited again (this time with Mike), released one album (Justus), went on tour, and in 1997, had a hilarious hour-long TV special.
