Book Reviews of I'm a Believer, Updated Edition: My Life of Monkees, Music, and Madness

Book Review: The Real Story
Summary: 5 Stars

The mid-sixties were about many things: Peace, riots, love, war . . . but mostly the period has to be remembered for music.

The Beatles, The Stones, even Rod Stewart are still staples today and their music is everywhere: So is the music of The Monkees.

Micky Dolenz wrote a "no apologies" bio of the group that at one point in time was laughed off as being nothing but a manufactured copy of the Beatles. But their music and artistry remains with us 40 years later.

Micky takes us on a brief introduction to his early years, how the Monkees were created and the impact the group (its music and the style) had on audiences. Not only does the reader learn about the group, you get an encapsulated image of what America was like during the Summer of Love.

Micky Dolenz writes in a straight-forward way - no frills and very little hype. He states his opinions for the reader to accept or reject and it is quite refreshing that we are left to make up our own minds.

It takes a lot to still be remembered fondly by millions decades later and the Monkees are. Read Mr. Dolenz's book and you'll find out why.
