Reviews Customer Reviews for The Birds The Bees And The Monkees Old timer's perspective Rating: This may not have been as cohesive as Headquarters or PAC & J Ltd but to fully understand it you had to have been 'there'. I was and the times did shape what you wanted to listen to, depending on how you felt about the war. Zor & Zam had a lot of meaning for me then because of that.
I certainly can't speak for the rest of the teeny boppers who spent their allowances on these 45's & LP's but I played Tapioca Tundra as often as Valeri so some of us got it.
I always used to skip Davy's sappy songs like 'We Were Made for Each Other' which wasn't as easy as in is with the CD.
Mangolia Simms was a favorite because Mike's parody of the style was just so on target.
It's not their best effort and, like the Beatles, they were evolving with each LP but their creative vision was always fragmented and it shows here.
Customer Reviews for The Birds The Bees And The Monkees Cd Didn't know how talented they were Rating: This CD is an eclectic blend of maybe not so known Monkees songs. The most interesting and haunting tunes were written and sung by Mike Nesmith. He even used some special sound effects that gave authenticity to the song Magnolia Sims. I love this CD. It is not bubble gum music that you may expect.
