Out Now: Michael Nesmith, INFINITE TUESDAY: AN AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL RIFF

You know Michael Nesmith, of course, from his work as one of the members of The Monkees, but there’s so much more to this man than a wool hat, a flair for comedy, and a gift for songwriting, and you’ll be able to find out about the other sides of his life when you pick up a copy of his new book, Infinite Tuesday: An Autobiographical Riff. And after you’ve picked up a copy – or possibly even before then, in case you just want to be prepared for whenever you do add it to your bookshelf – we’ve got the perfect soundtrack for your reading: INFINITE TUESDAY: AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL RIFFS.

Yes, we know the titles are very similar. This is not coincidental.

Nesmith’s AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL RIFFS features 14 songs, starting off with a song from his pre-Monkees recording career as Michael Blessing, following it with a track from the Monkees’ self-titled debut album (“Papa Gene’s Blues”), and also offering two other Nesmith-penned Monkees songs: “The Girl I Knew Somewhere” and “Listen to the Band.” Beyond that, however, you’ll get a strong compilation of Nesmith solo songs, including his most famous solo composition, “Different Drum,” and taking you all the way up to his most recent solo album, RAYS.
