The Monkees - "Pleasant Valley Sunday" - ORIGINAL VIDEO - HQ



There was a legendary handful of Los Angeles area studio musicians who were a couple dozen in number (although I get the idea that a few individuals came and went into these sessions as time went on) most of them were so often booked for studio recording sessions together that they came to be called, "The Wrecking Crew" because they were just so good.

Many/most of America's favorite songs of every genre from the mid 1960's until about mid 1970's were recorded with the Wrecking Crew doing the backgrounds or all of the music except for the singing.

This was one of their numbers, iinm.

They were just kids at the time of this video.

Eminence Front · The Who


If you are not familiar with the song, wait until you get to about 1:00 before you decide to pass on this kick ass number because it doesn't really get going until :40, and the singing doesn't start until @ 2:00.

The Who was one of my favorite bands.

This is the music that I grew up with, and it reminds me of the late sixty in the days of peace and love.

Great freaking song.

Here's a sign of how great it is.

I know three other completely different versions of Woodstock which are, each one, excellent in their own right.

Joni Mitchell's original.
The version by Matthew's Southern Comfort.
And James Taylor's.

Each one is just freaking excellent, including the one you posted by CSNY.
