Indeed...lefties did make good music
I mean ....for what it’s worth ...you know...
I’m quick tonite admit it
Ok aside from being pun sowing
I confess I liked San Francisco flowers in your hair
I lstill like Get Together by the Youngbloods and Sly Stones lefty tributes
Not to mention Long Time Gone and Almost Cut My Hair ...
Or JA Volunteers with Stones alum Nicky Hopkins on piano......
It’s all great stuff....some was hamfisted like country joe or john lennon
Lefties sucked then yes but their menu then was heavily laden with the draft....and didn’t have a lot of the crazy shite we see now
It was our time....and it sure beat bubble gum
Well ok I thought the monkees were tolerable....so shoot me
Were you familiar with 3 other big name acts of that time?
A.The Partridge Family;”I Think I Love You, C’mon get Happy”
B.The Cowsills: The Rain, The Park,.. Hair
C.The Byrds. 8 Miles High, Turn, Turn, Turn, Green Tambourine.
As you know, the 60’s and 70’s became deep wells for good music of various types. Some you may not want to admit ever liking.

“Well ok I thought the monkees were tolerable....so shoot me”
Look into who wrote some of their songs. Some Tin Pan Alley legends.

The Monkees had Don Kirshner and Burt Schneiderman as their fathers, to say nothing of the songwriting of Boyce and Hart, Neil Diamond, and Harry Nilsson. Once they actually believed the hype and thought they were actual musicians is when things went south, although hardcore Monkee fans insist otherwise. Loved the TV show as a kid and the episodes still hold up in terms of mid-late 60s goofiness.
