Michael Nesmith

While he and Dolenz were doing this recent, officially: a "last" tour,
I watched an interview with the two of them. Nez was funny in his usual way
during it and told stories that he'd probably told hundreds of times before.
Dolenz, on the other hand, looked like he was a combination of pissed
and really exhausted and wasn't really looking good. ...and some of the concert
footage of the two of them showed that Dolenz' voice was shot.

As a youngster, I called Dolenz on the phone because he was my
favorite Monkee at that time, but as years have gone on I've realized
that out of all four of them, the creative force was really Nesmith.
Yes, there were The Monkees, but a more creative snug-fit that he'll be
remembered for is the fact that he was a pioneer in music-video art.
His mother invented "Liquid Paper" BTW.
