Micky Discusses Sam & The Goodtimers – outtake from Disney Documentary 1997
A rare outtake from the excellent 1997 Disney Documentary about The Monkees. Here, Micky discusses the Sam & The Goodtimers tour.
Monkees live 1969 bootleg – Pleasant Valley Sunday
After the departure of Peter Tork, The Monkees conducted a tour across North America throughout 1969. They were backed by the seven-piece R & B band Sam & The Goodtimers. One concert from this tour (thought to be the May 10, 1969 performance in Wichita, Kansas at the Century II Convention Center) exists as bootleg, and “Pleasant Valley Sunday” can be heard here. It’s an absolutely horrible recording that I’m only posting for the historical curiosity of it. For years there have been rumors that the band recorded a show on this tour, but no tapes have ever turned up. Please visit my website at www.monkeesconcerts.com.
