- This is a live recording of "Salesman" most likely from a show at Budokan Hall in Tokyo, Japan on October 3 or 4, 1968. One of the concerts in Tokyo was filmed and later aired on Japanese television, complete with Japanese overdubs introducing each song. Mike Nesmith: lead vocal/guitar. Micky Dolenz: drums. Davy Jones: bass. Peter Tork: keyboards. Please visit my website at www.monkeesconc....

I'm surprised how well Davey could play bass.
And damn, Mike had such great voice in those days.
Monkees' Salesman Song was played in the Young Sheldon TV show on Sept. 26th, 2019.
I was delighted to hear part of the song Salesman by Nesmith and the Monkees being played during Episode 1 of Season 3 of Young Sheldon, titled Quirky Eggheads and Texas Snow Globes.
I loved that song from the Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones Ltd. album.
It was surprising and very exciting for me to encounter Salesman in a cool new TV show.
It brought me very pleasant memories from my teenager years when I used to play that record to show my friends how cool the Monkees were.
The drums' solo in the middle of the song were a nice touch that I will always remember.
I like these concerts... David wasn't a half-bad bass player either.
Wow sounds great and it is just the four guys!!!!
It often looked like Davy couldn't play instruments very well. But he's doing fine on the bass. We still miss him. This song should appear on the current reunion tour. I wonder which songs they never performed in concert.
Great stuff, I think Nez could have pull off a top performance with a grocery list, but it is the tight timing that can only make this stuff work-- that takes everyone, and reminds me of a much later Dolenz interview when he talks about particle physics, while Nez I think often talked about the spirituality of numbers. They couldn't pull off this impossible thing they did by being idiots. If you disagree try getting three friends together to sing salesman and tapioca tundra back to back, no fair if one is a monkee or Professor Gene Nichols! Anyway, I would teach this as a lesson in timing musically and just vocally. All the way.
Very interesting, can you elaborate a little on the particle physics bit of it. They sure got slammed by every one but the pope ( he was into Sonny and Cher ).
The Monkees were the best group ever ! Period!
This should have been mastered and released by this point.
@ElyC West I mean the audio recording
Davy could play bass and drums quite well !He also played organ live in a recording of Circle sky!
to be fair that was about 1 or 2 notes....but was a good contribution. Did he really play bass? I know that apparently he was the most natural drummer in the group but the producers were afraid he was too short and would disappear behind the drum kit.
Big Ulf I think he played the bass on this song live. Like in the picture.
He played guitar later, not just bass. Peter said that once Davy decided to learn guitar, he picked it up pretty quick. RIP Manchester Cowboy
There's a very short clip of David playing the guitar at the last convention he attended. Someone caught him fiddling around with their phone. He was quite an excellent musician.
Great stuff!
I wish Rhino Records would put together a album of The Monkees Japan concerts.
This is great.
I was living at Tachikawa air base near Tokyo and I went to this concert with some friends.
Hi Mike. A UK radio host is asking to speak to someone at the concerts - Could you get in touch? Thanks. www.iainlee.com/2017/11/07/monkees-live-japan-1968-video-help/
Wow! Thanks for sharing!! They should do this song in the NEXT TOUR! :D
Really can see how much better the boys played live from the 1967 live tapes in this song
A Craig Vincent Smith composition that was quite reminiscent of the Sir Douglas Quintet--most specifically "She's About a Mover" :)
Yep. Mike told me they picked it cuz it sounded like a Sir Doug song. I told Doug and he was *so* flattered. Then I told Mike how flattered Doug was and *he* was even *more* flattered!
I have thought the same thing !
I wish they would release the Japanese concert on 4k blu ray
Hahaha. Micky adding , high, in a high voice. And Peter, check out that beard action. Too much for me! I liked his hair the best the last time they played, Listen to the Band. Hair longer than in the show with no side part. It made his eyes look so small and he looked endearingly vulnerable. I’m pretty sure it was a tv special. Anyone remember the name?
It was titled 33 1/3 Revolutions Per Monkee and it aired on April 14, 1969, against the Academy Awards. Filmed in November 1968, it would be Peter Tork's last involvement with the band before leaving in December. It came out on videotape and possibly DVD. It is a nearly impossible to watch show and I'm a huge fan but it is HORRIBLE. They tried to make a theme of it but it gets abandoned halfway through the special. You have to see it to believe it and even after you watch it you will ask yourself "what did I just watch?". The Monkees almost act as co stars in their own special. Every song they perform gets tampered with. They each get a solo spot.
@@markzappasodi Ty!
It would be great to find the live and complete concert!
Better if they'd removed the intrusive and Annoying Announcing each tune,ruining the whole Damned Recording!

The late Peter Tork could play more instruments than the other three Monkees. Peter could play bass guitar, lead guitar, banjo, harpsichord, keyboards, piano, organ, French horn. He taught Micky Dolenz how to play the drums and taught Davy Jones to play the bass guitar, Micky probably taught Davy how to play the drums. But Peter taught Mike, Micky, and Davy to play quite a few instruments. Micky or Peter probably taught Davy how to play the tambourine and the maracas also. Peter Tork could play 7 instruments. I think Mike, Micky, and Davy usually praised Peter for his ability to play more instruments they could.
Terry Marvin (Dallas, Texas, USA)
Terry Marvin man you are right but trust me this is coming from someone who plays a few different instruments. Playing percussion is not difficult. Davy most likely picked up tambourine and maracas on his own
Michael said that Peter was the best guitar player in the group. Had they set up the band right, Mike would have played bass, Peter guitar, Davy drums and Micky would be lead singer and guitarist (Micky had played guitar in a band before auditioning for the Monkees)
@@garyrasberryjr.552 The musical lineup gets discussed a lot. I always point out that the only way to set the Monkees up playing instruments that they knew how to play at the time of hire, and where no one had to learn a new instrument, was to have Michael on guitar and harmonica, Peter on bass, Davy on drums and Micky up front singing (and playing rhythm guitar if he wanted to do so). But Davy said right out that he didn't want to play the drums, and no one else did either. The producers weren't anxious to put Davy behind a kit either. So Micky the trouper stepped up and became the one Monkee who had to learn a new instrument from scratch.
2:50 OHIO GAZIMAS! (good morning in Japanese)
oh that voice.....sigh
Is Mike the one singing this?
yep
Actually Davy Jones is doing a pretty good job on the bass
Does the film still exist of this?
Nope. Lost or destroyed.
Did it EVER exist?
Can someone translate the speech before the song?
She introduces the song and then recites a Japanese translation of most of the lyrics to the song.
