The Monkees TV show went on right after I started sixth grade in a wonderful suburban school district; compared to the declining city school district I'd been in, it was an incredible experience.

I couldn't believe the other boys were all totally into the show. They collected Monkees playing cards; if you collected them all they could be assembled mosaic-style into a groovy Monkees poster for your pad!

Unlike the aging and cranky teachers in the city school, my new sixth-grade teacher was young and hip. She looked a lot like Karen Carpenter, and was married to a doctor.

One of the things that was a total culture shock was that she let us play records on the class record player before class if we got there early.

There were only a couple of records there for us to play. One was Donovan's Mellow Yellow. To this day, when I hear it, I can go right back to September of 1966.

I remember their TV show. Some years ago for some strange reason I bought a Deluxe Edition of their first album.

My favorite songs were Daydream Believer, Valleri, I’m Not Your Steppin’ Stone (Paul Revere & the Raiders did a nice version too) and Pleasant Valley Sunday.

RIP Peter.

I guess you’d have to actually be one of the Monkees to know they were still around.

My 16 year old daughter likes the Monkees. Not her favorite group by any means, but she enjoys their tunes when they drift by. She has also discovered the Beatles and considers herself daringly retro.

I loved I’m a Believer, even though it was a Neil Diamond hit.

"Sugar Sugar" Became a big hit using Kirshner's new show. It was the band The Archies
Yeah but Wilson Pickett did an excellent cover of this song. It really was meant to be sung by a Black man.
