I realize I'm not directly responding to this thread's topic: Monkey House, but I thought I'd share my first exposure to The Dan. It was 1972, just around the time when their first album was coming out. I was at Eisenhower Park on Long Island for a free outdoor concert with some of my high school ("My Old School") friends to see, of all people, Jay and the Americans! The warm-up act were these guys I never heard of. At first I wasn't really paying attention to them but their sound became more and more demanding of my focus. I remember asking, "Who are those guys?" and nobody knew. Well, it didn't take too long to find out and I now own their entire original output, not just on original vinyl and CD, but also on UHQR vinyl. The vibrancy, the detail, the excitement create a MOST satisfying experience!
Now, I'll need to check out Monkey House.
