Post Description

Dit is een spot, ik breng zelf niks in omloop, maar spot hier alleen wat ik zoal tegenkom. Alle respect en dank voor de oorspronkelijke uploaders voor hun moeite. Een berichtje of spotpoints worden echter zeker gewaardeerd, dan weet ik voor wie ik zit te spotten.

N.a.v. het overlijden van zanger Davy Jones, gisteren: Monkeemania.

One in a long, long line of Monkees compilations, the 2011 U.K. set Monkeemania (The Very Best of the Monkees) may cover familiar territory but it nevertheless does its job very, very well. There are a couple of oddities and alternates peppered throughout the 57 tracks on these two CDs -- a previously unreleased extended version of "Look Out (Here Comes Tomorrow)," some TV versions of songs and alternate stereo mixes -- but these are details for collectors, the kind who meticulously keep track of these variants. For the rest of us, Monkeemania serves up all the hits and many of the best cuts from their albums, adding up to a generous, thorough overview of the classic '60s pop quartet.
