A huge talent 🎉
There’s no great mystery to songwriting..you play the lottery and sometimes you win..
Seemingly intelligent people dismiss The Monkees all the time. I think even the so called R&R Hall of Fame still snubs them. They had the best writers, great singers, top studio musicians and a massive broadcast platform.
Now you know how funky I can be
The Monkees deserve alot of credit. It's Peter Tork playing the piano intro. They took a good song and made it great. Anne Murray also had a hit with it. But The Monkees hit the grand slam!
It's a perfect pop song. There used to be such a thing. Now, what is called pop music just....sucks. Oh, and...shame on We Five for passing on this tune. They would have made a ripping version that might have really made their career. Instead, they went nowhere after You Were On My Mind.
see that house he's sitting in ?? It should be called Daydream Believer
I enjoyed The Lloyd Thaxton Show. He had a lot of great bands on. The Turtles, The Beau Brummells, The Shangri-las, etc.
He was one of my sisters brother in law can you believe it that I was so ignorant of this fact I never went to go meet him. His song July you’re a woman is one of my oldie favorites too i used to sing it all the time Well butcher it all the time
I was just thinking about his song “Lost Her in the Sun” the other day. Never suspected he wrote “Daydream Believer”. WOW.
" Wolves in the Kitchen"! 😎
Larry was bassist in Bread for a time too! The guy could seemingly do it all.
A lot of players play with a pick…but Joe’s sound stands out and is immediately recognizable upon the very first note you hear. For instance the Glen Campbell song Honey Come Back came over my radio a few weeks back. There was “that sound” again! I researched it and sure enough…there was Joe’s name in the lineup! Not surprised!
Thank you Joe for launching the career of the Carpenters. You were the one who discovered Karen's awesome voice.
Cool
What an incredible bass player. So musical. I loved his bass on the Mamas and the Papas, Twelve Thirty
Always went to John’s concerts in San Francisco.. Back in the day.. At the Boarding house … I can remember the first time I heard Daydream believer.. Loved it.. still do.. My daughter to this day is a … Daydream Believer…
Oops I meañt
I have loved this man and his music since 1989
Had a serious crush on Gayle back in her NCM days. It's a shame she left such a small, recorded legacy.
What a wonderful memory of this phenomenally talented - and very humble - man. I was fortunate enough to play (as a VERY run-of-the-mill hack drummer) a one-night charity gig in Durham, NC in the spring of '91 with Larry Knechtel, Dee Murray (legendary bass player) and Joe Khoury (a tremendously talented Nashville guitarist) and even looking back it is hard to believe how completely "unimpressed" with himself this man was. Such a HUGE career - and gone way too early at age 69. RIP Larry.
i think this might be slightly later than 1998 - during the imagination release he looked a bit younger imo 2000 maybe?
I'm from the UK, so the lyric never made sense anyway, but certainly "happy" doesn't fit with the "but" clause that comes between the white knight and not having any money. Makes more sense the way he wrote it, though sounds better the way they sang it. Does anyone know what a homecoming queen is? Is it a specific thing in the States?
So so so so awesome!!!! Thanks for sharing!!!!
It is a great song
We loved this guy on both his teen dance show as well as on his game shows.
He used to play at the Cactus Cafe in Austin every year or so. He had so many good songs in his catalog. Great guy super humble and approachable.
One of the greatest singer storietellellers of all time so much ignored
He was my hero.😎
This is a GREAT channel. It appears to have come and gone; I hope the creators of these interviews is still alive & kicking and might make available the full sessions someday.
This was wonderful. What a strong, compelling woman. Thank you archivesmp.
Ohhhh man..miss the old "Lonesome Picker".
He rides on! 😎
Check out the Phoenix Concerts...great album
Oh,yeah...😎
I just want to hear this guy PLAY it. in that setting, at that age, with that voice, right there in that room. I wish he kept going when he started singing. THAT is an artist.
yeah, I can tell you from lots of experience that as songwriters we often never know which of our songs will be number one, decade-edifying smash hits. like with my song _Mr. Honky and the Strawberry Jamboree?_ I just thought it was a ridiculous waste of time, but then, what do you know - my mom once said she liked the "Strawberry Jamboree" line, AND also that Strawberry jam is her favorite. so there you go. you never know. and so it goes with Mr. Stewart's _Daydream Believer_ worldwide number one sensation and my _Mr. Honky_ mom-kinda-favorable smash hit . . . with the BIG ones you often just don't know it's anything until you hear it played back in the studio.
Love it !!
I love hearing how a song was written, how it developed, and how it was received.
What a humble genius.
Because Davey Jones sang it. It is a wonderful song but it needed needed the Wonderfull voice and attitude of Davey Jones to complete it. Thanks for that song. I love that song.
It still sounds GREAT!
A lot of the charm of the song belongs to the arrangement written by jazzman Shorty Rogers.
Shorty Rogers played with Kenton and Art Pepper. Of course he was good! 😎
The Monkeys were Funky. But this story is Happy.
I heard this in the 19060s and it is now more relevant than evet
Genius 👌🏾
I have loved his voice since 1969 when when a UK DJ PLAYED LIVE VERSION OF JULY your woman
❤Beautiful uplifting song
Can't hear it. You recorded it at too Lorne level.
I have never heard even one song by Jim Webb that I wanted to hear again.
I might have sent you this already. But this is the perfect example of how you make money from owning a song
He sounds so young. I was really sad when I heard Tim had passed away. Manhattan Transfer have a fantastic sound.
Al Jardine was smart enough to know that without Brian Wilson he would be a dentist in Redondo Beach. He is a talented musician and a perfect supporting performer to Brian and his music. He is a survivor in the music business. I saw his show in recent years where he performs with his son, Matt, and Carnie & Wendy Wilson (Brian's daughters). Again, Al plays the supporting role well and is smart enough to have talented and personable singers like Matt, Carnie and Wendy to share the stage because as talented as he is Al is not a charm factory so having Matt, Carnie and Wendy really delegates perfectly the jovial good natured banter that helps his current shows.
In Japan it's the signature tune of Seven/Eleven convenience stores. Everybody instantly recognizes it. Brilliantly catchy, and so well done by the Ms!
