The Monkees ~ No Time

The verse at the beginning was based on Bill Cosby dialogue. biggrin

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

I need to check out the lyrics because Micky sings so fast. lol The video makes me chuckle. Looking at their outfits, it just dawned on me that they must have taped three or four videos in a row because the outfits are the same that were worn for "Randy Scouse Git" and "Daydream Believer."

Same room too. The videos for Star Collector and Daily Nightly had them wearing the same white outfits in both of them, but one was in color and the other filmed in black & white. Micky was a fan of Bill and James Brown too and would do the cape routine during their concerts in the 1960's. You can see Micky doing some James like moves in the Goin' Down clip also.

Not sure, but that would be a nice place to see him. I wonder If he will do any songs from his last solo CD?

Don't know. Peter has a band called Shoe Suede Blues that he's had for awhile.
