You might have heard Michael Nesmith died today. And you've probably heard enough Monkees to last a lifetime. Here's some non-Monkees stuff. A pre-Monkees instrumental (as Michael Blessing) that sounds like Davie Allan and Link Wray. Yeah baby. Then, the post-Monkees stuff. His top 40 hit from 1970, "Joanne" and an overview of his work from 1970-1975 at Aquarium Drunkard. In hindsight, he was kind of my favorite. That knit cap with the pom pom was stupid, but guess what? I had one.
