Title: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: bgas on September 01, 2015, 07:01:50 PM Here's something interesting( at least it was to me)
Background: Back in May I bought a Beach Boys item described as Fan club photos and Fact Sheet memorabilia ; Anyway, turned out to be mimeographed pages/blue ink, which I darkened for the scans (Some errors in the lists) BUT, 2nd page has a reference for a movie in which they were soon to appear( The Thread title) http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0061989/ Anyone ever hear about this at the time, or maybe sometime later as their appearance in same being scuttled?

I never heard of this movie. So, was it ever released and were the Beach Boys on/in it?Title: Re: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: pixletwin on September 03, 2015, 06:58:37 AM Interestingly it does not mention Mike as a collaborator on songs.

Yes, there are obviously some errors in the lists; tho it does credit Mike with "some" co-writes Title: Re: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: Gerry on September 03, 2015, 04:58:43 PM It was released in February of 1967. No BB's in it . It was supposed to take place in France. Someone probably confused it with Monkey's Uncle
Title: Re: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: LeeDempsey on September 03, 2015, 05:30:38 PM Problem is, "The Monkey's Uncle" is already in the list...
Title: Re: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: Alan Smith on September 04, 2015, 12:38:34 AM Despite the imdb ref and the poster above, I wonder if Monkey Go Home (as per the doc) was a proposed sequel to The Monkey's Uncle (itself a sequel of sorts) that never happened? Possibly the greatest cinematic missed opportunity ever, aside from Orson Welles proposed Don Quixote joint.
Title: Re: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: Joel Goldenberg on September 04, 2015, 10:41:04 AM Surprised to see Carl listed as playing saxophone, and Mike's not on the instrument list at all.
Interesting how most of the guys list Lesley Gore as a favorite singer. Title: Re: Monkeys, Go Home Post by: Andrew G.

Seriously, I wouldn't make such a snarky point normally, but my post was just THREE below yours.

Exactly which part of that didn't you comprehend ? ;D

Exactly which part of that didn't you comprehend ? ;D The "well out of it" part. Not a phrase I used here much, especially for not being on an album. Just misread. I didn't think posing the question again would get me 30 lashes. So be it. ;) |
