Re: The Monks
Is this one of those things that I initially looked askance at but will end up really digging?

Maybe! I found out about them several years ago when LITA reissued some of their stuff.Kali Durga wrote:Is this one of those things that I initially looked askance at but will end up really digging?

Re: The Monks
See, that's ^^ why I can't decide what to think of it. The clip TMR posted doesn't do anything for me, but the other things that I"ve seen elsewhere, like that song, are pretty cool. But for $10, I guess it's worth giving it a shot.

Re: The Monks
I'm looking forward to this.
I have their original album (on CD, not an original LP).
And I really like that album.
