Wait, is Peter holding a dead tree frog? That appears to be the least flattering picture of the four.

My neighbor's car left a dead tree frog on my back porch last week, must be why it's still fresh in my mind (it was a good 7"/18cm long). I need to stop feeding it anchovy oil and mackerel.

Your car runs on mackerel? That seems fairly sustainable.

I didn't even listen to music outside of the top40 ambiance until I was 16. That's when I got my first record (the Singles sndtrk).

βrian: errr, feline? Having a car on my back porch would be somewhat problematic.

Funny seeing Mickey in that Sheik of Araby outfit. It sort of presages his appearance as an Egyptian nobleman (and bad guy) in the Broadway production of Disney's "Aida".

Never saw Head. Started to watch it once, got as far as the opening concert footage, had to turn it off for some now-forgotten reason, and never got back to it. This makes me a cultural veg-out, I accept that.

The muppets are Disney, so good luck w/ us seeing them on Netflix anymore.

Head was a movie that made zero sense.... but Frank Zappa is in it!

yes, the stream cut out on me, too... glad it wasn't just my tuner..

And dammit - NOW I just had a moment of clarity on a cover tune. The Monkees song "Zilch" from "Headquarters" was kinda/sorta referenced/checked by Del The Funky Homosapien in the song "Mr Doubalina"

or rather "Mista Doubalina"

And Run DMC's riiff on "Mary Mary" from "Tougher Than Leather"

When the Monkees were on TV, it was a cool thing to know that the closing theme was called "For Pete's Sake".

I only remember the Monkees (on tv) on syndication when I was in the 3rd grade and younger.

I wonder if this song is intended as a slagging of the Beatles.

Scouse is the term for Merseyside English...
Avatar 1:25pm
Dave B:

Randy in Scottish useage can mean rude. and a Git is well... a git.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:27pm

The phrase "Randy Scouse Git" in Britain directly translated to, according to Dolenz, "horny, Liverpudlian jerk"

Dave B:

HAHA!

northguineahills:

Ok, off to lunch, hear ya at home!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 1:29pm
Meghan:

According to Dolenz, the song was written about a party that The Beatles threw for the Monkees at the Speakeasy nightclub in London. There are references in the song to the Beatles ("the four kings of EMI") and to other party attendees such as Cass Elliot of The Mamas & the Papas ("the girl in yellow dress")[1] and Dolenz's future wife, Top of the Pops "disc girl" Samantha Juste ("She's a wonderful lady"), ("the being known as Wonder Girl").[2] The verses and chorus do not relate to each other, with the verses whimsically describing the party and the chorus consisting of Dolenz screaming bigoted remarks at an unseen, long-haired youth

Parenthetical note: Riu Riu Chiu is one of those traditional Christmas songs that nobody knows and everybody knows. It's usually performed a capella, but there's a great version with instrumentation on Bruce Cockburn's Christmas album.

Where would the writers of love songs be if the word for sand that didn't rhyme with hand?
