The Monkees’ first album was a huge success, following on the number one single “Last Train to Clarksville.” The Monkees spent 78 weeks on the Billboard chart including an astounding 13 weeks at number one. The record wasn’t only a commercial juggernaut, it also stands as one of the great debuts of all time, and while the record and the group have faced criticism from rock purists through the ages, it stands the test of time perfectly well, sounding as alive and as much fun 40 years later. Prefabricated? Yes. After a fast buck? Yes. Exhilarating? Yes! Fab? Definitely! The music may have been created by studio cats instead of the band themselves but the pros weren’t merely phoning it in. Listen to the aggressive guitars on “Saturday’s Child,” the raw romp of “Tomorrow’s Gonna Be Another Day,” or the cascading wall of guitars and fiddles on “Sweet Young Thing,” and you know they weren’t just padding their bank accounts. They were playing some real rock & roll and you can credit the producers for that. Producers Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart aren’t craftsmen on the level of Phil Spector (who was actually approached to produce the band but probably laughed the Monkees’ team right out the door), but they knew how to craft razor-sharp and exciting pop tunes with lots of spark, soul, and the occasional psychedelic touch.

Fans of the iconic pop-rock group The Monkees are in for a real treat. On April 3, they will be releasing “The Mike & Micky Show Live” album.

On February 23, as Digital Journal reported, he performed a solo concert at My Father’s Place in Roslyn on Long Island, which was well-received; moreover, Dolenz sang several Monkees classics in his set.
In April of 2020, Dolenz and Nesmith will be touring and their show is called “An Evening with The Monkees.”

The Monkees – Pool It! (1987/2013)

Given the context of the MTV revivalism of their show, a reunion performance on the MTV music awards, a stellar best-of compilation, a top video on Dial MTV with “That Was Then…This is Now,” and a new series based on the original (the New Monkees? Anyone?), one would think that 1986 was the year that the Monkees could do no wrong. For the most part, this was true; but then they dropped Pool It! and it was a bit like watching a prized race horse’s legs give midway through a race. Unquestionably their worst output of all time, Pool It! was an obvious attempt to cash in on the revitalized success of the group, which falls flat within 30 seconds of the album’s solitary notable song “Heart and Soul.” This is normally the part of a review where the reviewer would advise this release for die-hard fans only, but I can’t even suggest that, as no one should be subjected to such poor quality unless they’re a collector or completist — and even then it’s best to keep Pool It! in its original packing, if anything to increase the resale value. ~ Rob Theakston
