This has always been my favorite Davy song, and one of my favorite songs in general. It doesn't seem to get as much love as every other song of theirs, but it's always been my favorite since I was a kid in the 60s.
Another great tune and breakdown...thank you! I like the section at 12:12...the guys could have done a nice live performance of this with just piano, guitar and drums...it's a nice chord progression.
Nice. One of my favorite Monkees tunes, and probably tied with Early Morning Blues and Greens for favorite Davy vocals. Is that Mike doing the ‘Ah’s’ at the end? I always thought so.
Mixed feelings on this one. I like it quite a bit but mostly because of familiarity. It’s clearly the weakest link on the album (Peter Perceval notwithstanding) and the only song from Pisces not featured in the television series. I strongly feel Goin’ Down or Daydream Believer should have opened side 2. That aside, the instrumental work on this tune is excellent and I have to say I like it more as an instrumental than with the lyrics which is really on par with a lot of other Davy slowies. Stellar work on the breakdown Septyl.
Chip Douglas on bass definitely Eddie Fast Hoh in percussion also two electric guitars on one a riff and playing backbeat rhytm I dont think Capli played all the basic intruments
No, it really is only Capli on everything but the horns and strings. Chip has attested to it - and it seemed like a point of annoyance with him. He would have preferred to record it as a "group," i.e., with himself, Fast Eddie, Nez and Peter involved in some capacity.
@@heikkisalonen1494It may be "hard to believe," but it's true. Andrew Sandoval, the Monkees' historian, has documented it is only Capli in two published books. Your ears are experiencing a "Mandela effect" bc of the rest of the album, probably.

Beautiful. A lot more going on here than first meets the ear. Thank you.
This is the content I didn't know I needed in my life. So cool!!
Another Davy favorite. The band members are spot on!
I always loved that little guitar fill. When i was a kid, i wanted a guitar so bad so i could play that
Nice song. One of my favorites of Davy
I have been anxiously awaiting this one, since it is mostly 1 person doing all of the isntruments. Another great job!

Kim did a great job on the backing track, though it's too bad the other guys didn't have any involvement in it.

I highly doubt that, it's more than likely Kim--
I always thought it but we were wrong.

Chip on bass and Tapioca Tundra
Who is that sitting on the side of the pool behind Davy at 14:30?
Far left is Kim Capli, writer of this song. In the middle is Samantha Juste, Micky's ex-wife.
@@septylite Thank you my friend!
But the official credits state that Capli was a co-writer, along Davy, Eddie Brick and Charlie Rockett.@@septylite
Still hard to believe no way that Kim Capli played a bass on this one Chip is on bass or else is Capli on Tapioca Tundra
