5.0 out of 5 stars
best monkees book yet,
By Amanda Christie (Waterbury, Vermont) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hey, Hey, We're the Monkees (Hardcover)
the pictures in this book are great, and show a lot of what the monkees were all about. lots of candids. but the best thing about this book is not the pics, but the stories told by micky, davy, mike, & peter. first hand info from the men who lived in the monkees phenomenon. a must read for a good laugh or a good sigh.

Hey Hey it's the best!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Hey, Hey, We're the Monkees (Hardcover)
Whether you're a die hard Monkees fan, or just curious about that T.V. made rock group you loved so much when you were a kid, this is the book to answer you're questions. Packed with photos of those four lovable guys, it includes all kinds of little known stories told by the people who were there! You'll read all sorts of stories told by the Monkees themselves, and you'll learn about what went on behind the scenes of their fun T.V. show. Learn about the guys' struggle for creative control of their music and how they were able to win it with the making of their much loved album, "Headquarters." This is a must-have book, even for the casual fan

Not complete,
By Shana (NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hey, Hey, We're the Monkees (Hardcover)
I just got this book recently, and I was pretty disappointed with it. Although it's not The Monkees fault, almost every passage in this book has been quoted on one website or another, making almost everything in the book lose it's freshness. Also, the Monkees don't talk about the group's long breaking-up period (from when Peter left in spring, 1969, to when Micky and Davy finally called it quits in 1970) or their lives individually after they broke up and very briefly about their lives before they were picked for the show. Still, the few parts that weren't quoted on websites before are interesting (like the Micky-making-fun-of-Don Kirshner story), and it's charming to read their recollections, particulary Micky's and Peter's. In short, this is a good book, but it's missing some stuff, and don't be surprised if you've read pratically everything in it before.
