From the Floor Models reunion show -- a somewhat unrehearsed but charming version of The Monkees "Last Train to Clarksville."
With Brian and Michael (from The Lemon Twigs) along with their dad Ronnie D'Addario on backing vocals. Thanks, guys!!!

Greetings from Stockholm!!!
The Floor Models are on display at the hippest music store in Sweden. This is so cool I can't stand it.
REPOSTED FROM POWERPOP:
Attentive readers are aware that a certain Shady Dame and I recently returned from a Scandinavian vacation. Herewith a little documentation of one of the most fun parts of the trip -- the discovery, as we explored Stockholm, of what we have since been informed is the most famous guitar and music store in all of Sweden: Hellstone Music.
I'll be posting more about this incredible emporium -- including some Beatles/Klaus Voormann related stuff that will blow your mind -- next week, as part of a longer photo essay on our travels. But in the meantime -- feast your eyes on this vintage 1952 Les Paul gold top, which as you can see is in utterly pristine condition. And outside MY price range, obviously.
And here I am with the shop's proprietor, Sven Hellsten, who couldn't have been more kind to the loudmouth American poseur who wandered around his place like a kid in a candy store.
Bottom line: If you make it to Stockholm, be sure to stop by the shop. And tell 'em PowerPop sent you.
