Monkees, The Easter Egg - Ouch
Admittedly this is actually a slip-up not an egg, but there is no music section on the Slip-Up Archive.
During the fade out of "Daydream Believer" (the repeats of "cheer up Sleepy Jean"), on one of the "cheer"s someone hits a stonker of a wrong bass note - it's appaling. And great fun!

I listened several times and the notes aren't out of key at all. I play bass and the bassist here is playing a simple bass fill that goes fine with the song. Its not a slip-up nor an egg.

Maybe I wasn't listening close enough, but I didn't hear a slip-up anywhere when I listened to it over and over and over again...

Despite the fact that the Monkees producers reputedly hired top session musicians to play on their early records, I think this is fairly obviously a slip up after trying to get back after a high descending bass run! Makes me feel a lot happier about my own playing.... :)

Surely anyone can hear this! The bassist (Joe Osborne, I'm guessing) hits the root note by mistake, right under the word "cheer", and quickly flips back to the correct note. NOT intentional, and very noticeable.
For a rally classic Joe Osborne flub, see "Monday, Monday" by the Mamas and Papas live at Monterey. Wow!
