OCTOBER 7, 1972
"The Spy Who Came In From The Cool," Episode No. 5 of The Monkees (prod. #4702, aired on NBC October 10, 1966 and June 19, 1967), was repeated @ 1:00 p.m. (EDT) on ABC. OCTOBER 9, 1967 "Art, For Monkee's Sake" (prod. #4744) first aired @ 7:30 p.m. (EDT) on NBC as the 37th episode of The Monkees. Sponsored by Kellogg's™, this episode featured "Randy Scouse Git" written by Micky Dolenz and "Daydream Believer" written by John Stewart. This marked the debut appearance of "Daydream Believer" (billed in "Art, For Monkee's Sake"'s end titles as "Day Dream Believer"), which would become The Monkees' third and final visit to the #1 spot on the charts. OCTOBER 9, 1971 "Monkee Versus Machine," Episode No. 3 of The Monkees (prod. #4700, aired on NBC September 26, 1966 and May 22, 1967), was repeated @ noon (EDT) on CBS, with a new song added: "Listen To The Band," written by Michael Nesmith. OCTOBER 10, 1966 "The Spy Who Came In From The Cool" (prod. #4702) first aired @ 7:30 p.m. (EDT) on NBC as the 5th episode of The Monkees. Sponsored by Kellogg's™, the songs featured were "The Kind Of Girl I Could Love" by Michael Nesmith & Roger Atkins, "All The King's Horses" also by Nesmith, "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone" by Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart, and "Saturday's Child" by David Gates. The firstrun telecast of this episode coincided with the release of The Monkees' self-titled first album, The Monkees (Colgems #COM/COS-101). The record itself was recorded between June 10 and July 26, 1966 at RCA Victor Studios A and C, in Hollywood, with tracks produced by Tommy Boyce, Bobby Hart, Jack Keller and Michael Nesmith, most of the instrumental backing provided by The Candy Store Prophets, and Don Kirshner overseeing the proceedings. Of the 12 tracks featured on the album (which include such gems as "[Theme From] The Monkees," "Saturday's Child," "Let's Dance On," and who can forget "Last Train To Clarksville"?), Gerry Goffin and Russ Titelman's "I'll Be True To You (Yes I Will)" was the only one which didn't appear in a Monkees episode. (One can only guess the effect of the sales on the album had Nesmith's "All The King's Horses," which was featured on the television show twice, been included in its place!) OCTOBER 10, 1970 "I Was A Teenage Monster", Episode No. 18 of The Monkees (prod. #47??, aired on NBC January 16, 1967), was repeated @ 12:30 p.m. (EDT) on CBS, with a new song added: "Good Clean Fun," written by Michael Nesmith. OCTOBER 11, 1969 "Everywhere A Sheik Sheik", Episode No. 35 of The Monkees (prod. #4749, aired on NBC September 25, 1967 and April 8, 1968), was repeated @ noon (EDT) on CBS. This episode's repeat coincided with the release of The Monkees' eighth album (and the last to involve Michael Nesmith), The Monkees Present Micky, David, Michael (Colgems #COS-117).
