Description
The "Different Drum: The Lost RCA Victor Recordings" 2LP by Michael Nesmith is a high-fidelity, limited edition release featuring folk rock and country rock tracks from the 1970s. This import LP comes in a cardboard sleeve with mint inlay and sleeve grading, making it a perfect choice for special occasions like weddings or birthdays. The album includes a gray 180gm colored vinyl disc with stereo audio channels and a speed of 33 RPM, offering collectors a rare and unique addition to their vinyl collection.
Nesmith's time with the Monkees was well and truly in the rear-view mirror and he needed a new place to live and work. He caught the ear of Jac Holzman, head of Elektra Records, and a path forward miraculously appeared. Realising that most of the record companies at the time didn't understand Country Rock, Nesmith convinced Holzman to start a new label, Countryside. Nesmith would run the label, put together a 'house band' and produce albums by various up and coming country artists.
Unfortunately, most of the new label's releases didn't make much of an impression and Nesmith soon started to contemplate his own music again. Aided by the power of his Countryside house band, he quickly crafted Pretty Much Your Standard Ranch Stash, a full and final RCA album.
Despite it's commercial sheen, RCA RECORDINGS wasn't a success sales-wise and it became the closing remark to a heavy chapter in Nesmith's life, a final "adios" to Monkee Mike, to the cosmic cowboy, and to his family, as he moved further on up the trail.
