The Last Train To Clarksville-The Monkees (Colgems Records) 1966, 45 rpm! A Direct Recording! Had this record since I was a little kid, always loved it! Rip Davy Jones! This was written by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart, a songwriting team who came up with many songs for the Monkees. They also wrote songs for Chubby Checker and Jay And The Americans. Boyce and Hart wrote this as a protest to the Vietnam War. They had to keep this quiet in order to get it recorded, but it is about a guy who gets drafted and goes to fight in the war. The train is taking him to an army base, and he knows he may die in Vietnam.
