I'm sure she understood.)īy the time of my senior year in high school, 1976-77, my radio allegiance had migrated from AM Top 40 to freer-form FM, specifically WOUR-FM, The Rock Of Central New York. (And later, when I became a fan of the Kinks during my senior year in high school, I realized that "Hello, I Love You" was very heavily influenced by the Kinks' "All Day And All Of The Night." Lilith may have known. I hope Lilith will forgive me for never becoming quite the Doors fan she was. I later discovered that my sister had the Doors' "Hello, I Love You"/"Love Street" 45, so I did hear the Doors in short order. I was old enough that I must have heard the Doors music before that, but it hadn't registered with me. Lilith's first appearance, Teen Titans # 25, drawn by Nick Cardy

In 1972, the 38th issue of the DC Comics title Teen Titans opened with a scene of clairvoyant Titan Lilith dancing to the Doors' "When The Music's Over." Since twelve-year-old me already had a little bit of a crush on our Lilith, her recommendation of what rock group I oughtta be listening to could not be taken lightly. And since Spygenius accomplishes faithful covers of both, that even-handed compasrison applies equally to the originals. In Spygenius' capable hands, the Monkees song is as heavy as the Traffic song, and the Traffic song as pop as the Monkees song. For those of us who remember the condescension some FM radio rock fans used to ooze while smugly disdaining the Monkees, this medley demonstrates the prevailing silliness of that artificial divide, that arbitrary insistence that one thing is hip and one thing is not. Both the Grip Weeds and Spygenius cover "For Pete's Sake," and Spygenius deliver their rendition of the Monkees' "Love Is Only Sleeping" as a medley with their take on Traffic's "Paper Sun." This is a brilliant gathering of the tribes, mixing Traffic's classic rock perennial with a Monkees album track. And their fab new covers album Spygenius Blow Their Covers also includes two Monkees songs. No slight to the amazing Chip Douglas, whose integral contributions made it all happen, but on "You Just May Be The One," it is effectively only the Monkees.Īnd it's fantastic. For all the ill-informed crap we've heard about the Monkees not playing their own instruments, this is the Monkees. Peter, Micky, and Davy joined de facto deputy Monkee Chip Douglas to sing behind their wool-hatted prime mate Michael.

Yes, the precise line-up and instrumentation we saw on their TV show. The song was written by Michael Nesmith, who sang lead and played electric and acoustic guitars. You know who else was on that session? The Monkees. It was produced by Chip Douglas (credited under his real name Douglas Farthing Hatlelid) and engineered by Hank Cicalo. "You Just May Be The One" is a track from the Monkees' 1967 album Headquarters.
