Monkees 1st press OZ LP Headquarters EX ’67 RCA COS103 Sunshine Psyche Pop
Original 1st press OZ LP released in 1967 on RCA REcords. Cat: COS103.After the release of More of the Monkees, on which the band had little involvement beyond providing vocals and a couple Mike Nesmith-composed songs, the pre-fab four decided to take control of their recording destiny. After a well-timed fist through the wall of a hotel suite and many fevered negotiations, music supervisor Don Kirschner was out and the band hit the studio by themselves. With the help of producer Chip Douglas, the band spent some time learning how to be a band (as documented on the Headquarters Sessions box set) and set about recording what turned out to be a dynamic, exciting, and impressive album. Headquarters doesn't contain any of the group's biggest hits, but it does have some of their best songs, like Nesmith's stirring folk-rocker "You Just May Be the One," the pummeling rocker "No Time," the MOR soul ballad "Forget That Girl," which features one of Davy Jones' best vocals, Peter Tork's shining moment as a songwriter, "For Pete's Sake," and the thoroughly amazing (and surprisingly political) "Randy Scouse Git," which showed just how truly out-there and almost avant-garde Micky Dolenz could be when he tried.
Tracks : You told me/ I’ll spend my life with you/ Forget that girl/ Band 6/ You just may be the one/ Shades of grey/ I can’t get her off my mind/ For Pete’s sake/ Mr. Webster/ Sunny girlfriend/ Zilch/ No time/ Early morning blues and greens/ Randy scouse git..
