Is it ever acceptable/reasonable to prefer The Monkees over The Beatles? idk Randy scouse git hits harder than any of the Beatles' songs. Maybe I'm just a contrarian faggot...
>>128506300the Monkees probably had the greatest one year run of singles in rock history: Last Train to Clarksville, I'm a Believer, Pleasant Valley Sunday, Daydream Believer.But not really all that surprising when you realize they had some of the world's best songwriters writing them songs, and musicians playing on them (and Mickey was a good singer).
>>128506300pre 2016 /mu/ absolutely hated the beatles, so you have more in common with old /mu/ than 95 percent of the board does now.
>>128506745Old mu also worshiped fantano like retards. Not everything old was good
>>128506300It is, be free to like whoever you like.
>>128506661I also like a lot of Mike's original songs, Circle Sky is probably my favourite Monkees song. And Tapioca Tundra is peak ofc
>>128506882I think somebody else had a hit with a Nesmith song. can't remember what it is tho.
>>128506882>>128507081just looked it up, I think it was 'mary, mary' by Paul Butterfield that I was remembering. not exactly a hit, but if Butterfield did your song, it had to be pretty good.also, Linda Ronstadt had a minor hit with 'different drum' with the band she was in before going solo.
>>128506827I just want to know that if I say I like the monkees over the beatles in a bar I won't get fucked in the vagina with a broken wine bottle.
>>128506300I really like Trout mask, But I like Zappa just a little bit better, I even quite like Valley girl lmao.
