Although the above was first performed in 1949 it came to prominence in the 60s movie "Bonnie & Clyde".

When I was in High School in the 60's, bands were hotly debated by some students. There were actually fist fights between Beatles & Stones fans.

But one thing they agreed on was that "The Monkees" were not a "real" band. I could never figure out what that meant. Yes, they were brought together for a tv show through a process of cattle-call auditions. Every band was brought together by someone, they don't grow on trees.

With the tv money behind them, The Monkees had some of the best songwriters of their era. If you called out all of them, you'd practically empty the Brill Building.

It was fun to watch Beatles fans when I pointed out that John Lennon and George Harrison had both expressed their liking the Monkees and their tv show.

But on to the songwriters:

Harry Nilsson’s “Cuddly Toy” became Davy Jones' own.

Carole King and Gerry Goffin wrote “Take a Giant Step,” the gorgeous “Sometime in the Morning, “Sweet Young Thing” (with Nesmith) and, of course, “Pleasant Valley Sunday.”

Neil Diamond provided the monster hit “I’m a Believer,” as well as “Look Out Here Comes Tomorrow.”

Neil Sedaka and Carole Bayer Sayer contributed “When Love Comes Knockin’ (At Your Door)” to the second album.

Singer-songwriter John Stewart, a second-generation member of the Kingston Trio, produced “Daydream Believer.”

Jeff Barry and Marianne Faithfull had a hand in the rocker, “She.”

Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil delivered the haunting “Shades of Gray.”

I've always believed the music exists independent of whoever wrote or performed it.

So if you don't believe The Monkees were a real band, you need to Take A Giant Step Outside Your Mind.

beach boys - god only knows

i love the velvet underground, early kinks, mc5, yardbirds, stooges and a ton of the edgier sounds of the 60s, but to me, there no song that can compare to this.
absolutely beautiful and definitively one of the greatest songs every written.
