LSD AND OTHER HAIRY THINGS

Okay, so maybe the Monkees aren't your bag, but will you take a look at that cover? Zap your mind with the Fugs! The Mothers of Invention are not only greasy and freaky, they're insane! WTF? How the hell does Jefferson Airplane make it work with five guys and one girl? I gotta know! Boy, this shit is rich. Like a bridge for those making the transformation from teenybopper to freak. Guess what? I ran across the whole magazine online, two issues in fact. You can even download it on your Kindle for some beach reading (links below). To get your music fix, here's some non-hit Monkees stuff, most from the soundtrack to their movie Head, which is about as close as they ever got to LSD or hairy things. There's a link to the entire film below too. If you haven't seen it, it'll probably change your opinion of them (cameo appearances by Jack Nicholson, Carol Doda, Annette Funicello, Frank Zappa, and Sonny Liston). So admit your hang-ups, zap your mind, get greasy, freaky and insane. Talk about LSD and other hairy things.  See what love is like. Make it work!
