JSngry Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 Fuuny thing is that by the time TBB was a hit, Davey Jones & The Monkees were serious "has-beens" w/no resect at all. So it was a totally unhip thing to focus on. As was the show itself in those days. Wait long enough, and everything gets hip, I guess. Quote

Jim R Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 Did somebody just admit to watching the Brady Bunch? Quote
couw Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 just in case you didn't believe me, in a 1968 episode entitled monkees blow their minds, zappa appears as "mike" and mike nesmith as "frank." this scenario recalled a similar role reversal in the monkees 1967 movie head. from head Didn't Zappa have Ringo Starr as Zappa in 200 Motels? yes Quote
ghost of miles Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 Did somebody just admit to watching the Brady Bunch? All too many times after school on Indpls. Channel 4--and Jim's absolutely right, Davey Jones must've been hard up for a gig at that point... Mom always said, 'Don't play ball in the house!'" Quote
ghost of miles Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 Too bad Art Pepper couldn't have ducked into the Brady household while he was chilling at Synanon. Now that would've been an episode to remember! "Mom always said, 'Don't do smack in the house!'" Quote
ghost of miles Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 Not to mention the possibilities of "Greg Gets Into Electric Miles"... Mr. and Mrs. Brady become concerned after Greg begins to spend all of his free time in his "pad," neglecting his homework and listening to Miles Davis' ON THE CORNER at fullblast. Matters are resolved when Miles, an old friend of Mr. Brady's boss, pays Greg a visit and tells him that he's "an ofay motherf#*#er who should stop calling my s*%t 'fusion.'" Quote

ghost of miles Posted November 21, 2004 Report Posted November 21, 2004 From "Back to the Future, or Greg vs. Greg": Greg is troubled after a visitor from the future named Greg M. accosts him and derides his hi-fi system at great length, all the time preaching the joys of a new audio format called SACD. Tranquility is restored when Mr. Brady's old friend Buddy Rich shows up and hurls Greg M. into a drumkit. Quote
robviti Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 what did lowell george do on F troop. was the rest of little feat there aric, Lowell George's appearance on F Troop in the mid-sixties predated Little Feat. In the episode I mentioned, Sgt. Agarn was the manager of a rock group called The Bedbugs, which was really an L.A. band called The Factory that featured Lowell George and Ritchie Hayward, both of whom would later go on to form Little Feat. Btw, I learned that The Factory also appeared on an episode of Gomer Pyle, U.S.M.C. Quote
Guest ariceffron Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 little feat are the greatest...perhaps they should be next installment's IF U DONT HAVE IT.... Quote

robviti Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 (edited) and how do they make music on electric instruments that aren't plugged into an amplifier? only les paul decked out in a buckskin outfit could answer that one to my satisfaction! btw, while we're on the subject of premodern rock ensembles, don't forget the beau brummels rocking out with the cavemen. of course, on the flintstones, they were called the beau brummelrocks! just like ann margarock's (ann margaret) appearance. she was drawn very well, but i still couldn't stand her singing!

Tony Pusey Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 JSngry,Rocknroll bands in the old west were more common than you think, cf the Crackers in the Western movie Zachariah! Actually The Fish incognito... And I would prefer if this thread moved on to the Feat who blew the Doobies away on their joint first visit to England. Quote
Tony Pusey Posted November 22, 2004 Report Posted November 22, 2004 And lets not forget that the peerless Tim Buckley appeared on a Monkees episode singing Song to the Siren. Quote
