The Monkees Tale
/RSS FeedEric Lefcowitz has spent years chronicling The Monkees. Now he spends a half an hour talking to Gary Shapiro about them, and about his book Monkee Business.

Author Eric Lefcowitz chronicles the kaleidoscopic journey of Micky Dolenz, Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork, following each of the four Monkees, together and apart, from 1965 to the present day. A must-read for music fans, Monkee Business is the definitive biography of a rock and roll legend.
