Early on, the Monocles started out as a fairly ordinary pop-rock outfit. Then in mid-1966 the Monocles began to change; they cut a tune called \"Psychedelic (That's Where It's At)\" that led to some truly bent sessions later on, most notably the twisted psychodramas of \"The Spider and the Fly,\" \"The Boogie Man,\" and \"The Diamond Mine\" (the theme song for Dave Diamond's Los Angeles radio show).\" - Mark Deming (allmusic.com)Tracklist:Side 1Psychedelic (That's Where It's At) (The Monocles) 1966Boogie Man (The Monocles) 1966Crazy Bicycle (The Higher Elevation) 1967Summer Skies (The Higher Elevation) 1968You Don't Know (The Monocles) 1965Thoughts Of Lila (The Higher Elevation) 1967Country Club Affair (The Higher Elevation) 1968Odyssey (The Higher Elevation) 1968The Spider & The Fly (The Monocles) 1967Side 2The Diamond Mine (The Higher Elevation) 1967What Is It (The Monocles) 1965Treat me Nice (The Monocles) 1965Highway 101 (The Higher Elevation) 1968Here Comes Sunshine (The Higher Elevation) 1967Heartbreak Hill (The Monocles) 1965Where Is My Life (The Monocles) 1965Psychedelic (That's Where It's At) (Instrumental) (The Monocles) 1966Boogie Man (Alternate Version) (The Monocles) 1966","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/producto\/the-spider-the-fly-and-the-boogie-man\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"es","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/producto\/the-spider-the-fly-and-the-boogie-man\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/producto\/the-spider-the-fly-and-the-boogie-man\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/15779.jpg","contentUrl":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/15779.jpg","width":600,"height":600,"caption":"The & HIGHER ELEVATION"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/producto\/the-spider-the-fly-and-the-boogie-man\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Inicio","item":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Shop","item":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/shop\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"The spider, the fly and the boogie man"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/#website","url":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/","name":"Guerssen records","description":"psychedelia - progressive - folk - garage ","publisher":{"@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/#organization"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/?s={search_term_string}"},"query-input":{"@type":"PropertyValueSpecification","valueRequired":true,"valueName":"search_term_string"}}],"inLanguage":"es"},{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/#organization","name":"Guerssen records","url":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"es","@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/","url":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Logo_Guerssen_trans_100.png","contentUrl":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Logo_Guerssen_trans_100.png","width":122,"height":100,"caption":"Guerssen records"},"image":{"@id":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/#\/schema\/logo\/image\/"}}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/178793","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/115106"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=178793"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=178793"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=178793"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/guerssen.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=178793"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
