    Paul McCartney said The Monkees were a real band . I agree . Mike is being modest

    Loved them together. I am so glad Mike realized before he died they were no joke. They were respected and loved. Mickey is the only one left as of 4 25 2023. The Monkees stood for love creativity essence and spirit. Gods Blessings to you all.

    "Now it seems we are all still together / When all the others never made it through". How true. In 2022, Micky is still carrying the legacy of the voice of the '60s most of us knew.

    Mick is one of the most iconic voices in history. Peter is such a complete and acomplished musician. David and Mike made their presences wonderfully. The best live performance by the Monkees. There was such good energy among them by that time. Then, things started to fall apart. I am glad they made this appearence. What a band!

      Mickey Dolenz has an almost identical voice to that of Paul McCartney ...... listen to McCartney harmonizing on "Dr. Robert," "If I Fell," and on the final line of "Nowhere Man." Listen to Dolenz harmonize at the ends of "Last Train to Clarksville," and "I'm a Believer."

    So sad that I never got to see this footage until now, when the only living monkee is Mickey. One of my favorite tv shows, bands, and underdog musician stories, and I always was blown away with them as musicians through the years while other musicians didn't get it.

Micky's voice is one of the greats in rock and roll history. These guys belong in the rock and roll hall of fame. They are unique in the annals of rock and roll history.

    It's hard to believe that Micky was recruited and learned drumming on scene nearly 50 years ago, and become the prolific drummer at last. He has quite stong timing and sing it at the same time. He's really kick!
    For Mike and Pete, not much surpirsing about them. They were already accomplished musicain back then.
    For Dave, yes he is the forever monkee and memorable frontman.

      Mickey is a guitarist first.
      For the TV show someone needed to play the drums.
      Peter and Mike refused to give up their guitars.
      Davy was too short to sit behind the drums.
      Mickey got the role of the drummer.
      The Monkees are very talented and versatile

Even though our beloved Davy is gone they should do it. I wish I knew how to contact someone but I have no clue. Something should be done before God forbid they are no longer with us. They made albums on there own way after the show and proved the critics wrong and the butt heads still will not budge. we should help

    The live version of Oh What A Night came out particularly good!
    The live version of Admiral Mike comes out sounding a little more like a '60's psychedelic song than it does on the record. Heavy, man!
    I have always been annoyed at Rhino's total failure to release any live recordings from this era.
    Thanks so much for sharing!!
    Really wish I could have been present at one of the live shows with all four.
    I did get to see them live in Atlanta in 1986, and among the solo concerts I was privileged to attend I got to see Mike Nesmith. So I did get to see all four Monkees ultimately, just not on the same stage at the same time.
    So this is really a treat. Thank you again.

      Actually they all could play from the very start, but probably weren't fully ready to record all of the first releases without having a enough time to get in sync, work out how they fit together, plus lot of rehearsal time to bring them up to speed. If they weren't doing a tv show at the same time, they probably could've gotten there pretty fast.

    Davy actually taught him a few things in the very beginning. The would have put in as the drummer but didn't because he was too short and disappeared. Micky became so good through lots of practice. He is awesome.
