"Pleasant Valley Sunday" Carole King

"Pleasant Valley Sunday" has always been one of my favorite Monkees songs...great melody, hip lyrics, groovy guitar lick, incredible drumming and sparkling vocals...The song was written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King...Here is the songwriters demo recording with Carole King on vocals...it is much folkier than the Monkees version...it sounds like how The Mamas And Papas or Spanky & Our Gang might have done it...cool stuff.

Casey's Really Scratchy Record Collection Presents: "It's A Gas" Alfred E. Neuman

Six Reasons Why This May Be The Coolest 45 In Rock N Roll History:

1. It is the sound of a man belching over cheesy sixties rhythm & blues.

2. Rumor has it King Curtis (sax) and Booker T. (organ) of Mgs fame played on the record. They really must have needed the money.


3. The record was included in an old issue of Mad Magazine and is made out of cardboard. It will destroy your needle in 17 seconds.

4. Did we mention it is the sound of a man belching over cheesy sixties rhythm & blues?

5. Guaranteed to bring joy and happiness to six year olds everywhere.

6. Guaranteed to bring anguish and disgust to mothers everywhere.
