Records!!
So, yesterday my mom and I checked out a few record stores in hopes of finding some Nez/Monkees stuff. We came across a record of the Head Soundtrack. The guy at the store didn't think they had any of Nez's solo stuff but when we went to check out he said, "Here I found this, ins't this his?" It was a record of The Wichita Train Whistle Sings! Such a surprise :) So here are some pictures of the records:

Ok just a quick note on what this says, the top part is just the track listing but below DOT is a quote from Michael. It says (there are no caps in this):
the laboring strikes ever endless streams of milk and heretoafter unseen things... while captain queeg at the head of his boat tells the wicked sea of his wicked hope and i can't tell if it's a joke or some mad state of confusion... she looks like she belongs in a purple glass with all the help she can buy from the things that pass and quietly the dark strikes out its task in a hopelessly made state of confusion with unity a premium too rich for blood and sovereignty for sale for blocks of wood... i can't help thinking it's all been done in an utterly mad state of confusion... so i find myself with reams of thought caught in a rusty press with the man at the helm unable to find corporeal happiness... so i think it may be this constant stress that brings about such confusion and i can't seem to block a squre of light from storing itself inside and regardless of effort to keep them blind there is nothing here to hide while the sky keeps going around up high in some mad state of confusion with blankets covering the countryside and no one seeming to care... the world turns green and then turns blue and then it all seems fair for stands in eternal streams of time... man constantly must share and wander around a martyred clown in some endless state of confusion and then there was wichita.
*Mike Nesmith 1968
