It's surprising but not too surprising Rolling Stone could come up with 50 best songs by fake bands. I felt sure there would probably be a record by the Monkees among their top 50. But, imagine my surprise when the critics who compiled the list wrote but what about the Monkees and the fact the Monkees had Pinocchioed their way from a fake band into being a real band, so they didn't qualify as a fake band. What Rolling Stone never would've admitted in the 60s or the 70s. As Dylan observed, the times, they are a changin'.
