Synopsis

Album Description
Bobby Hart and Tommy Boyce were popmeisters who wrote songs for the early Phil Spector productions among many others, but perhaps their best known project was The Monkees! .Turned down for roles early in the auditions, they landed the perhaps more artistically satisfying and lucrative roles as writer/producers for the music content of the show. Indeed, it was their own band, The Candy Store Prophets, who ghosted for The Monkees on their early sessions, including all the early hits and successful album tracks.
 

CD Reviews

Serena would be proud
Don Loiacano | Bowling Green, KY United States | 06/14/2008
(4 out of 5 stars)

"What can you say about Boyce and Hart other than the men could write a pop song. Sure, just like Mark Lindsay with the Raiders, they were copping Beatle licks and ideas, but who the hell wasn't? And before anyone compares them to the pop 'icons' of today, watch them on Bewitched AND I Dream of Jeannie. They definitely knew who they were and could give a knowing wink to the audience. Filled with great hooks, great singing, and a couple of 'why wasn't this song on the top of the charts instead of...' moments. Ignore the cheesy Vegas style photo and get inside the grooves, man ; - )"
Ultimate sound quality, save for...

"Really, the only flaw in an otherwise superlative compilation from the fine people at Rev-Ola is "Six+Six" (a rare single "B" side not found on any original LP) being mastered from a record, though the remasterer did a worthy effort; still, a substitute of another song [from tape]--"I'll Blow You A Kiss In The Wind" would be a prime candidate-- would make this set 5 stars, overall. Great liner notes (by Andrew Sandoval) and photos! The remastered sound (save for "Six+Six") blows other B&H collections out of orbit. Why can't ALL B&H CDs sound this phantasmagorphic?! A MUST for Monkees fans, too."
