What were the career paths of each member of "The Monkees" after the band disbanded? Did any of them have successful music careers?

They had a single “I remember the Feeling” that Mickey sang with a lot of gusto.

Davy could be already be seen on TV- both first run and in syndication- in one of the best Brady Bunch episodes , where he meets Marcia Brady.

Mike Nesmith put out a number of solo albums and did a lot in country music and experimental music. Notably Elephant Parts a long form production that included music videos, comedy routines and absurdity. It also was the source for “Cruisin’” which was a very frequently aired video on MTV all the way into early 1983. Hulk Hogan starred in this video and besides Da Ya Think Im Sexy and Bette Davis Eyes it's the first video i remember seeing, on a Betamax copy of Elephant Parts in 1982!!

Why do some people prefer watching movies than reading novels even if they are both based on the same source material (book)?

The Monkees reformed briefly in the late 80s and rode a renewed wave of Monkee Mania- their show was on every day in syndication- and their fans from the 60s and new fans crowded to see them.

Mickey was also one of the original Hollywood Vampires, a bunch of musicians who were drinking buddies, including notably Harry Nilsson, Alice Cooper , Keith Moon, Ringo Starr and John Lennon.

If you watch talk shows and live in Concert tv shows from the 1970s you can catch a performance of ths group. They appeared on their own special, American Bandstand, and Don Kirshners Rock Concert.

Can you explain the difference between “mi piace” and “mi piacciono” in Italian?

Peter Tork also had a number of solo albums and had bands like The Peter Tork Project. He had a solo album in 1994 called Stanger Things Have Happened .

Mickey and Davy success in the mid 70s in the supergroup of Dolenz, Jones Boyce & Hart.

Dolenz, Jones and Tork released a new album Pool It in 1987 which got some play on classic rock radio as well as the video on MTV, which was also showing old Monkees episodes.

I’m wondering about attachment and transference with the therapist and the idea of escape and fantasy? How much do you think your strong feelings, constant thoughts, desires to be with your therapist are a way to escape from your present life? I wonder if the transference serves another purpose than to show us our wounds and/or past experiences, but is a present coping strategy for managing what we don’t want to face (even if unconsciously) in the present—-current relationships, life circumstances, etc. Can anyone relate to this concept of escape in relation to their therapy relationship? How does this play out for you?
