Also need to add the lead work on their original music. This Boy is mine, June, When were together, Club 27 ( off the chart playing) One more Time, etc…shows you that the talent they have is not just covers, when you can match that quality with original music? You are in a special class in my book and not to many people are in that class. One that I feel is in is Elvis. He did covers and original music that kept him above the rest. I know this will be a topic and I understand that , it is what one likes and loves . But we can agree that Mona and Lisa are very special and talented and for us to be on this journey with them is awesome to me in this lock down world we are all living in at the moment.

Music? Everyday without fail, the club? I try to get on at least 3 or 4 times a week. We are raising our 7 year old grand daughter and when you get home, with Dinner, Homework, bath, and read a book? It is 9 already!! And I am up at 3:30 to go to work…LOL…So a long day for sure , but do try to get on during the week and now on the weekend, good time to catch up. Sometimes I have a day off in the middle of the week, With Covid they have us working 4 10 hour days and one day off in the week and I ususally pick that day to catch up, no one home but me and Mona and Lisa CD’S.

Spot on Skip. That guitar is an awesome guitar and from being in bands over the years I have been lucky to have a guy play this guitar and it is to me the best sound for the music that Mona and Lisa do. I play a little myself, just cords mind you and when I hold that guitar in my hands I feel history, John Lennon and the Birds , makes it so cool knowing that these legends play this instrument.

To me Nowhere man is a perfect cover for the Mona Lisa Twins, Their voices are spot on and the drums and guitar work is off the chart in my book. How about Lisa’s solo part ( George Harrison would be proud Lisa ) And if you remember what they closed out with on the Christmas segmant We can work it out? Wow to me ? I prefer listening to Mona and Lisa more and more each day. The music is so great and done with perfection and they bring new life into the songs we all know and love for years!

Again 4 people on this album, Bass, Guitar (2), Drums. And the wonderful voices of Mona and Lisa. This album has it all in my book. I just hope one day we all can see them live!

Yes Mona’s Ricenbaucker is the lead on She’s a woman, and You Can’t do that. Sorry for the spelling…LOL…But with my experence with guitar’s and talkig to a friend of mine on guitar’s , they vary in the manufacuring and styles of music. The birds and the beatles used Rickenbaucers etc for that twang sound if you will and Lisa’s Gretch is a bit deeper in a way. i know Mike Nesmith of the Monkees had a 12 string Gretch or still has it and the sound fits the style. But again both Mona and Lisa are so awesome with their style of guitar playing, it is so cool to listen to and you know it comes from their heart and soul when you hear them play, not just hitting notes of strings, these ladies have it going on for sure and you can tell when you hear them play. Revolution, For What’s it worth, The Last Time, Club 27, Johnny B Goode, man I could go on forever and they can rock and they can be mellow just as well, which tells me we are all on the journey with them for some time to come!! Stay Groovy Mona and Lisa we are all with you on this journey.

Thomas,
Yes on my car system and my head set, I hear Mona in the left speaker and Lisa in the right speaker. And on She’s a woman, you hear Lisa say ….Go Mona right before she does the solo. And the end of that song is awesome with both Lisa and Mona going back and forth with leads. I am so impressed with these ladies, they can rock. I put them up against anyone in my book!!! -
Great Replies everyone. And the newest video of Nowhere Man is proof how they can make our day brighter. So nice to witness their talent and know that there are still wonderful people in this world Mona, Lisa and Pa and Michelle that make sure that things are ok and we will all get thru this lock down together and hope to someday soon see them live in Concert.

Jung,
You hit it perfect. Lazy Sunday is such a fun song to listen to from the Small Faces but the Mona Lisa Twins take it up a notch to me. And Kansas City is uplifting to me. I am singing HEY HEY HEY …. This entire album is to me the best live album of my collection. I feel so good listening to it and thank god for the Mona Lisa Twins with the love and spirit they have for the music I grew up with. -
For me I was listening to the Monkees and Beatles. I was 9 years old so playing with my friends and playing baseball in the back yard. Going bowling with my dad. Great times for sure

Jeffrey,
Excellent, yes Jim Croce would be a good choice for Mona and Lisa. His music was huge in the early 70’s. I feel his music was a spill over from the 60’s. I love the early 70’s music myself. -
Jacki,
So true, Here in the USA it took 3 to 5 weeks for me to get mine. But it is well worth the wait!! Jung enjoy my friend and love the versus of Mr. Postman. As a drummer? I am doing wipe out in your honor buddy!!! -
OMG….That would be sooo cool Jacki, great post. For me? I would show them the view of Pittsburgh from the high point in the city called Mount Washington and that gives you a birds eye view of how beautiful our city is and the three rivers coming together at the point of the city. And then take them to the Andy Warhol and the Heinz Museum along with Hienz hall where shows are and groups play. Show them the trolly lines thruout the city and beings the pizza lover that I am? I would take them to the pizza shop that I went to when I was a kid growing up and is still there since 1956. So thank you Jacki, although it is a dream it would be so awesome to me!!

I remember seeing interviews with different groups saying how excited they were hearing their music on the air waves and I can appreciate that, I was jumping up and down when I heard the Mona Lisa Twins on the Beatles channel!! So cool and to me it is letting the world know that there are two wonderful Ladies sharing their god given talent to music and the path they are on is a good path and not a shot in the dark but a journey that we are all on and loving it.
