Monkees ~ Salesman 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 | |

A friend of Mike Nesmith wrote this tune. I think his name was Craig something. So obviously Mike is going to sing it. It was used in the episode where Peter sold his soul to the Devil.

The episodes are on DVD, but I don't know if it's still in print. The 2nd season set also has the 33 1/3 special with Fats Domino, Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis, Julie Driscoll, the Clara Ward Singers, and Brian Auger.
