Please help improve this article by adding reliable references.Los Angeles in 1965 for an NBC American television series of the same name.The show, which ran from 1966 to 1968, helped make them one of the most popular music acts of the decade.The members of the group were Davy Jones, Michael Nesmith, Peter Tork, and Micky Dolenz.The Monkees officially disbanded in 1971.Dolenz and Jones continued touring together for most of the 1970s, but were not permitted to use the name The Monkees.History of the series The television show first broadcast on September 12, 1966 on the NBC television network and lasted for two seasons (58 episodes).The final primetime episode ran on September 9, 1968 (see List of The Monkees episodes).Modeled on The Beatles' theatrical films A Hard Day's Night and Help!Due to the massive success of the records, and the public's expectations, the four Monkees became a real pop group.The series was sponsored by Kellogg's Cereals and Yardley Cosmetics of London.Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider felt he looked too old for the part, and because he did not want to lose his music publishing rights to Screen Gems.False rumors have circulated that Rick Vaive also auditioned.Monkees singles as "Michael Blessing") and Tork (part of the folk music scene in Greenwich Village) were both aspiring musicians.Dolenz (who starred in the 1950s series Circus Boy) and Jones (who appeared with the cast of Oliver!However, only the Monkees' voices were used on the group's initial recordings, with the music provided by session players.This was mainly due to the time constraints on the four Monkees and a rivalry between the Monkees and music supervisor Don Kirshner hired by Bob Rafelson to handle the music side of the Monkees.However, within a short time, Nesmith who was already an accomplished writer, was writing, producing, and recording Monkees music in a separate studio from the other Monkees music under Kirshner control.This struggle over the Monkees musical direction increased the tension between Nesmith and Kirshner.Title card for The Monkees TV series' second and final season on NBC.Their characters were loosely based on their real selves, with the exception of Tork, who was actually a quiet intellectual.Many of the same sets and props from the Three Stooges were used on The Monkees.Curly Howard appear to be the same ones worn by Peter Tork in various episodes.As a television show, The Monkees used techniques rarely seen on episodic television.Mazursky went on to direct such films as Harry and Tonto and Down and Out in Beverly Hills.Rafelson would direct such films as Five Easy Pieces and The King of Marvin Gardens.He said that The Beatles were always depicted as superstars with legions of fans, whereas The Monkees were always depicted as unsigned and struggling to make a buck.The Monkees won two Emmy Awards in 1967: Outstanding Comedy Series and Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Comedy (James Frawley).TV knockoff of the Beatles, but the Beatles took it in stride, and made the Monkees welcome.Longtime Beatles confidant Peter Shotton wrote in his memoir The Beatles, Lennon and Me, "The Monkees are what the Beatles pretend to be."Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the Monkees were in England and met the Beatles at a party and Nesmith attended the A Day in the Life sessions at Abbey Road Studios: he can be seen in the Beatles' home movies.Against the initial wishes of the producers, Dolenz, Jones, Nesmith, and Tork went out on the road.This gave the four performers increased confidence in their battle for creative control over the music chosen for the series.The band had no time to rehearse a live performance.They worked on the TV series all day, recorded in the studio(s) at night, and slept very little.Between takes the Monkees would turn them on and practice the live performances.Eventually the performances began to be used at times during the series.The Monkees had complained that the producers would not allow them to play their own instruments on their records.The Monkees were capable of playing their own instruments on the recordings and they had written some material, but, except for the few songs forced through by the Monkees' campaigning, they were not allowed by Kirshner to play or use their own material.The animosity between Kirshner and the Monkees began in the very early stages of the band.Apparently, during an early recording session, the four Monkees were clowning around in the studio.The antics escalated until Micky Dolenz poured a Pepsi on Kirshner's head (Micky at the time not knowing Kirshner by sight).This rule severely limited the involvement that the Monkees could have with the music.This greatly disturbed the band members, especially Nesmith, and became the catalyst behind their rebellion.Kirshner, over Kirshner releasing an earlier Kirshner produced, Neil Diamond written song, "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You", as a single, without consent of the group.Following Headquarters, they began what they referred to as "mix mode" where they played their own instruments but also continued to employ session musicians.The core instrumentation of "Sgt.Brian Wilson produced much of Pet Sounds and the aborted SMiLE album (including "Good Vibrations") during that same era, using session musicians without the participation of the Beach Boys members until later in the project.The use of additional musicians to augment the band members continued until the 1996 reunion album "Justus" was recorded.When the Monkees toured Britain in 1967, there was a major controversy over the revelation that the group did not play all of their own instruments in the studio, although they did play them all while touring (except for the solo segments, which used backing band the Candy Store Prophets).Many Monkees fans argued that the controversy unfairly targeted the band, while conveniently ignoring the fact that a number of leading British and American groups (including critical favorites such as The Byrds and The Beach Boys) habitually used session players on their recordings.This commonplace practice had previously passed without comment.However, the Beatles had led a wave of groups who played their own instruments and wrote their own songs.Neil Diamond, Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart, Gerry Goffin and Carole King, Harry Nilsson, Barry Mann, Cynthia Weil, and many other highly regarded writers had songs recorded by the Monkees.This desire was partially fulfilled within some second season episodes, with guest stars like musicians Frank Zappa, Tim Buckley and Charlie Smalls (composer of The Wiz), performing on the show.The advertisements would supposedly have read: "From the people who gave you HEAD."Nicholson also assembled the film's soundtrack album.The film, conceived and edited in a stream of consciousness style, featured oddball cameo appearances by movie stars Victor Mature, Annette Funicello, a young Teri Garr, boxer Sonny Liston, famous stripper Carol Doda, and musician Frank Zappa.It was filmed in Screen Gems Studios and on location in California, Utah, and The Bahamas between 19 February and May 17, 1968 and premiered in New York City on November 6 of that year.War Chant" (recited at the start of the film by The Monkees), ruthlessly parodies Boyce and Hart's "Monkees Theme."Members of The Monkees, Nesmith in particular, cite Head as one of the crowning achievements of the band.The Monkees had several international hits which are still heard on pop and oldies stations.These include "I'm a Believer," "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone," "Daydream Believer," "Last Train to Clarksville" and "Pleasant Valley Sunday."Screen Gems held the publishing rights to a wealth of great material, with the Monkees given first crack at many new songs.Their choices were not unerring; the band turned down "Sugar, Sugar," which became one of the biggest hits of 1969 (for The Archies).But the Monkees never had to record a song they truly disliked, as Dolenz affirmed on The Larry King Show in 1987.The Monkees also helped bring America's attention to the Jimi Hendrix Experience, who they took on as an opening act during their Summer 1967 concert tour.This was later proved false, and it has since been revealed that the story was concocted for publicity purposes by Hendrix's camp; it has also been suggested that Hendrix's management deliberately picked an unsuitable tour to create public controversy.During the performance of "Foxy Lady," though the crowd appeared to be singing along with Hendrix, they were in fact impatiently singing "Foxy Davy".Six albums were produced with the original Monkees lineup, four of which went to Number 1 on the Billboard chart.This success was supplemented by a series of successful world concert tours.Reduced to a trio, the remaining members went on to record Instant Replay and The Monkees Present.In the summer of 1969 the three Monkees embarked on a tour with the backing soul band Sam and the Goodtimers.The concerts for this tour were longer sets than their earlier concert tours: many shows running over 2 hours in time.In March 1970, Nesmith left the group, leaving only Dolenz and Jones to record Changes as The Monkees.Lady Jane') the Monkees lost the rights to use the name; in several countries, the USA included, the single wasn't credited to The Monkees but to Dolenz and Jones.The duo continued to tour throughout most of the 1970s but were unable to use the Monkees name.In part because of this exposure to a new generation of young fans, The Monkees Greatest Hits charted in 1976.LP called "Refocus" that had been issued by Arista's previous label imprint, Bell Records, also owned by Screen Gems.As the "Golden Hits of the Monkees" show ("The Guys who Wrote 'Em and the Guys who Sang 'Em!"Japan, Thailand and Singapore.They also released an album of new material as Dolenz, Jones, Boyce and Hart (they could not use the Monkees name due to legal reasons).Irving Berlin's "White Christmas."Hart on stage at Disneyland on July 4, 1976, and also joined Dolenz and Jones on stage at the Starwood in Hollywood, California in 1977.TV series Television Parts, although the segment in question was not included when the series' six episodes aired during the summer of 1985.Revival Brushed off by critics during their heyday as manufactured and lacking talent, The Monkees experienced a critical and commercial rehabilitation two decades later.Monkees TV show marathon ("Pleasant Valley Sunday") was broadcast on 23 February, 1986 on the video music channel MTV.MTV promotion resurrected a smaller version of Monkeemania, and tour dates grew from smaller to larger venues.The Best of The Monkees, released at the height of the Monkees' 1986 revival.Mike Nesmith appeared onstage with Dolenz, Jones, and Tork twice, both times in Los Angeles: at the Greek Theatre on September 7, 1986, and at the Universal Amphitheatre on July 10, 1989.By now, Nesmith was amenable to a reunion, but forced to sit out most projects because of prior commitments to his bustling Pacific Arts video production company.However, he did appear with the band in a 1986 Christmas medley music video for MTV, and took part in a dedication ceremony at the Hollywood Walk of Fame, when The Monkees received a star there in 1989.The success, however, was not without controversy.The Best of The Monkees.Some copies of the single and album credit the new songs to "The Monkees," others as "Micky Dolenz and Peter Tork (of The Monkees)."Reportedly, these recordings were the source of some personal friction between Jones and the others during the 1986 tour.The Monkees' 10th), appeared the following year and was a moderate success.From 1986 to 1989, The Monkees would conduct major concert tours in the United States, Australia, Japan, the United Kingdom and Europe.Four young musicians were placed in a similar series based on the original show, but "updated" for the 1980s.In the 1990s, The Monkees continued to record new material, Their 11th album, Justus, was released in 1996.It was the first since 1968 on which all four original members performed and produced.The trio of Dolenz, Jones, and Tork reunited again for a successful 30th anniversary tour of American amphitheaters in 1996, while Nesmith joined them onstage in Los Angeles to promote the new songs from Justus.However, following the UK tour, Nesmith declined to continue future performances with the Monkees.Tork, Jones, and Dolenz toured the United States in 1997, after which the group took another hiatus, until the three regrouped again in 2001.Dolenz, Jones, and Tork toured the United States from March through September 2001; Jones and Dolenz went on to tour the United Kingdom in 2002, but Tork declined to participate.Jones and Dolenz toured the United States one more time as a duo in 2002, and then split to concentrate on their own individual projects.With different Monkees citing different reasons, the group chose not to mark their 40th anniversary in 2006.But this critical reputation has softened somewhat, with the recognition that the Monkees were neither the first manufactured group nor unusual in this respect.The Monkees also frequently contributed their own songwriting efforts on their albums and saw their musical skills improve.Gargoyle Impalers ("Mary Mary", "For Pete's Sake" and "Circle Sky") and The Upbeat and The Mexican Spitfires ("Mary Mary") performed Monkees cover versions.Japanese popsters Shonen Knife recorded "Daydream Believer".Bongwater, featuring Ann Magnuson and Mark Kramer, recorded "You Just May Be The One" and "The Porpoise Song"."Daydream Believer" and "You Just May Be The One" are staples at his live shows.The band's legacy was strengthened by Rhino Entertainment's acquisition of The Monkees' franchise from Columbia Pictures in the early 1990s.In the 1990s, three of The Monkees had minor roles in the family sitcom Boy Meets World.Tork played Topanga's father Jedidiah, Jones played Reginald, an old friend from Europe, and Dolenz played Gordy, Mr."Search for a Star" talent
