Our Take

The Monkees – Good Times!

Rating: 8.4

In a world where nostalgia reigns supreme and reunions are as common as Kim Kardashian selfies, The Monkees have made a triumphant return with "Good Times!" And boy, is it good! From start to finish, this album is like a time machine that takes you back to the 60s, when the only worries were which girl to ask to the dance and whether your hair was perfectly coiffed.

With songs that are catchy as heck and production that’s as crisp as a freshly ironed shirt, The Monkees prove that they’ve still got it after all these years. Tracks like "She Makes Me Laugh" and "You Bring the Summer" are pure pop perfection, guaranteed to have you tapping your toes and humming along.

But it’s not all sunshine and rainbows on "Good Times!" The band delves into more introspective territory with tracks like "Me & Magdalena," a haunting ballad that showcases their vulnerable side. And let’s not forget about the guest appearances from the likes of Rivers Cuomo and Noel Gallagher, adding a modern twist to the classic Monkees sound.

Overall, "Good Times!" is a delightful romp through the past that proves that The Monkees are still as relevant as ever. So dust off your bell bottoms, grab a lava lamp, and let The Monkees transport you back to a simpler time when all you needed was some good music and a groovy attitude. Peace, love, and Monkees forever!

About the artist

The Monkees

The Monkees may have started as a manufactured group, but they quickly established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the wild and wacky world of 1960s pop music. Formed in 1966 for a television show about a fictional band, the Monkees soon became a real-life phenomenon, churning out hit after hit and capturing the hearts of fans around the globe. With their infectious blend of pop, rock, and psychedelia, the Monkees crafted a sound that was as unique as it was catchy. From the jangly guitars of "Last Train to Clarksville" to the dreamy harmonies of "Daydream Believer," their music was a heady swirl of melody and mischief that captivated audiences and critics alike. Despite facing criticism for their manufactured origins, the Monkees proved themselves to be serious musicians in their own right. With members like Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork, and Michael Nesmith each bringing their own talents to the table, the band's sound was eclectic and endlessly entertaining. Over the years, the Monkees have enjoyed a rollercoaster ride of success and turmoil, with breakups, reunions, and tragedy all playing a part in their tumultuous history. But through it all, their music has endured, standing the test of time and cementing their legacy as one of the most iconic bands of the swinging sixties. So, next time you feel like taking a trip down memory lane, why not put on a Monkees record and let their infectious tunes transport you back to a simpler, groovier time? Just remember, as the old saying goes: "Hey hey, we're the Monkees, and people say we monkey around" - and we wouldn't have it any other way.
