@TheVinylApe Tomorrow I’ll post a photo of the very first LP I ever bought, a Monkees comp. It still has the price sticker on it.

@TheVinylApe Pleasant Valley Sunday is such a great song.

[thevinylape@cupoftea.social]

@retrosponge it sure is.
One of MANY of their bangers.

@TheVinylApe I also grew up watching the show in syndication. My favorite Monkee was Mike because I liked his hat.

[thevinylape@cupoftea.social]

@donutage a fair reason.
Mike Nesmith was the best musician of the bunch. That dude was the real deal.

@TheVinylApe hey, my magic shuffle machine just decided to play the Monkees theme song for me. Good timing!, iTunes!

[thevinylape@cupoftea.social]

@donutage our devices are listening! ️

That’s why I swear at them and insult them regularly.
Just do they know I’m on to them.

@TheVinylApe Porpoise Song is so, so good.

[thevinylape@cupoftea.social]

@mwhjohnson masterpiece, my dude.
It’s crazy.

@TheVinylApe I’m currently reading the autobiography of Marie Helvin, the model. When she was 13 in Hawaii, she saw the Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko give a reading, and gave him her address in case he wanted to come round to meet her family. A few months later he was back in Hawaii, and he called round, then took her to see a gig by The Monkees! Wild! All above board too.

@Doctor_J_ I don’t do streaming. I don’t subscribe to any of those services.
