Buytthe Monkees were known to be just an excuse for tyhe tv show & vice-versa -
- the Partridge family didn't even play themselves -- they were not musicians.
I think the Monkees were, no?
The only albums I got of theirs cost me $1-$2m, so I'm not going to go seeiing refunds! *LOL*
Whoever was behind the sound -- it's a fun listen when I'm the mood for '70s bubble-gum music!
I never got into the members nam,es *7 bios -- I just knew which bands & artists liked.
The ony artist in rock I noted & paid attention to who he played with, was Eric Clapton -- the King of Rock & Roll Acoustic Guitar, I'd say. .
Every album he's on (whether solo, or Cream, or the others) was a #1 seller with multiple gold & platinum singles. Impressive indeed.
I'm starting, out of curiosity, to backtrack a few favourite bands to their previous formations (e.g. Earth for Black Sabbath--not easy to find)
