This is a real shock to me.
Anybody that's been here from the beginning knows I was a big fan..Not of The Monkees TV show. I don't think I ever watched a single episode, but as I said recently, Michael's music was a big part of the LA Country Rock genesis.

I don't know what to post here, and in what order, but this first one is actually chimps song ;-)

My cousin made me a Monkees fan, she bought me all their albums. We shared Davy`s last name, and she made that fun for an eight year old kid. I didn`t know it was so common! They were the shizzle for a time. I learned more about MN from Yac than I ever knew.

This week in 1976, Boston's debut single, MORE THAN A FEELING reached its US chart peak at #5. When it was released, group leader Tom Scholz still had his day job working for Polaroid (Dec 1976)
NOTE: I've put together this video montage to accompany the song MORE THAN A FEELING.
Group leader Tom Scholz wrote this song, which is about a guy who wakes up with the blahs, turns on some music, and gets lost in reverie dreaming of his days with Marianne.
"It was written about a fantasy event," he explained.
"But it's one that almost everybody can identify with, of somebody losing somebody that was important to them, and music taking them back there."
According to Rolling Stone magazine, Scholz was inspired by the "heart-tugging mood" of the Left Banke's 1967 song "Walk Away Renee." He worked on the song for five years in his basement studio before it was released on this album.
Tom Scholz recorded most of Boston's first album, including "More Than a Feeling," in his Watertown, Massachusetts basement studio, which was stocked with equipment he bought with earnings from his job at Polaroid.
When Boston finally got a record deal with Epic, they had to abide by union rules and complete it in a proper studio, which Scholz felt was a hindrance. To get around this restriction, he re-recorded his demos pretty much note-for-note in that same basement studio and had his vocalist, Brad Delp, record his vocals in the Los Angeles studio Epic arranged. Boston drummer Sib Hashian played on "More Than a Feeling," but Scholz played all the other instruments on the track.
This was Boston's first single, and a surprising hit. The group's rise was sudden and unexpected; when "More Than a Feeling" was released, their managers spent a lot of time pitching it to radio stations, which is a very tough sell for an unknown band, but the song is so polished and radio-friendly that many stations put it on the air. It took off, and very soon this unknown band with an album recorded mostly in a basement was a major player on the rock scene.
The album Boston is one of the best selling of all time. It sold very well in the '80s and '90s due to catalog sales, which were these offers record companies made to the public where you could get something like "25 CDs for a penny" as long as you chose from their selection and agreed to buy a certain number of albums in the future.

On The Road To Find Out
Cat Stevens
Well I left my happy home
To see what I could find out
I left my folk and friends
With the aim to clear my mind out
Well I hit the rowdy road
And many kinds I met there
And many stories told me on the way to get there
So on and on I go, the seconds tick the time out
So much left to know, and I'm on the road to find out
In the end I'll know
But on the way I wonder



Through descending snow
And through the frost and thunder
I listen to the wind come howl
Telling me I have to hurry
I listen to the robin's song
Saying not to worry
So on, and on I go, the seconds tick the time out
So much left to know, and I'm on the road to find out
Well I found myself alone
Hoping someone would miss me
Thinking about my home and the last woman to kiss me
Well sometimes you have to moan
When nothing seems to suit you
But never the less you know
Your locked towards the future
So off and on you go, the seconds tick the time out
There's so much left to know and I'm on the road to find out
And I found my head one day
When I wasn't even trying
And here I have to say
Cause there is no use in lying, lying
Yes the answer lies within
So why not take a look now
Kick out the devils sin
Pickup, pickup a good book now
Yes the answer lies within
So why not take a look now
Kick out the devils sin
Pickup, pickup a good book now
Yes the answer lies within
So why not take a look now
Kick out the devils sin
Pickup, pickup a good book now
