Listening to the just released Greenbriar Boys retrospective on Vanguard, reminds me that they did the slowed down version of "Different Drum" (from later Monkee Nesmith) that got Ronstadted to chart topness. It has an interesting structure -- anyone have the chords out there? yours, Peter T.

Lemme see, in C I think it goes

C and Em F to the G of a C again, and so on, round and round.

F get me wrong, it's not that I'm knocking, it's G that I'm not in the market for an F who wants to G only C.

F ain't sayin G aint pretty, C Em, F not C-dy for D7 person place or thing to dm7 the reins in on G7.

C Em F G again as before. I think he means You and I travel to the beats of diff'rent drummers. I've heard his mother invented white-out, probably to correct his lyric pages.

Wow, I never knew Mike Nesmith wrote that song! I just went and looked at my LP of "Evergreen Volume 2" by the Stone Poneys (Catch a Stone Poney and Take Your Mind for a Ride), and sure enough, there it was. I could always tell it was written by a man, of course. I also noticed that the album has two songs by Steve Gillette...whom I just saw in concert a couple of months ago on my last visit to southern California. "All my life's a circle, sunrise to sundown..."

Anybody remember Mike Nesmith's "official" Monkees nickname?

Aloha,
Mark

PS, what ever happened to the other two Poneys, Robert Kimmel and Kenneth M. Edwards?
