Details At A Glance. NOTE: The Profanity Filter is ON. The show will be about a band, who live together and basically get up to all manner of fun in between belting out a few tunes (the songs will be provided by a team of songwriters of course - the guys don't need to be that creative).
Well nearly thirty years before the recent Popstars phenomena, some TV executives in America had this idea to cash in on the recent success of The Beatles and their A Hard Day's Night rock film and produce a weekly TV show about a band of good looking guys. The Monkees debuted in 1. A couple of hit songs that still feature on radio playlists today, and a TV show that has endured countless re- runs since it was first aired. The four guys (Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork, and Michael Nesmith) became household names, appearing in commercials and gave them the sort of exposure and fame that is normally associated with megastars.
The television show gave them the opportunity to plug their songs and their popularity grew. It all sounds a bit like Bardot - except these guys actually had hit songs and could play their own instruments. So off the boys went on the road, plugging their songs and getting mobbed at every stop. This documentary, made some five years ago, chronicles just how the idea came about, and the audition process the four lads went through to score the roles (the is even some screen test footage which is quite amusing). There are recent interviews with all of the guys (including an unrecognisable Michael Nesmith - he's the one whose mum invented Liquid Paper!) and many scenes from the series thrown in for good measure. Despite a fairly brief running time of a little under an hour, there is a wealth of information contained within, that should give all but the fussiest of fans a decent overview of exactly how the Monkees came about and the legacy they left behind. When asked about the similarity between The Monkees and The Beatles, he replied .
Change your configuration. We experience the full range of quality for the older vision, with black and white and colour television footage in addition to many still photos throughout.
Getting too upset about this though is certainly not important, as one should not expect pristine quality from what is virtually archival footage. The older material is obviously the worst and some of it looks like it could have even been shot on a handheld Super 8 camera.

The newer interviews are quite reasonable, with only a slight trace of edge enhancement. Shadow detail does not suffer greatly. Grain is plentiful, mostly in the older material, though also on the backgrounds in the newer footage. It does not become overly distracting. Apart from the black and white material, some of the colours are washed out and dull, while others nicely saturated and solid. There are no problems caused by the transfer, they can all be attributed to the source material.

The newer interview material is the best of course, with even skin tones and much richer tones throughout. The older material features all manner of problems, such as tape tracking noise, low level noise, and a myriad of other distortions and artefacts. This is as expected and is no fault of the transfer.
The music and songs are very well recorded, and while not being as rich as a modern track, are certainly better than I was expecting. The dialogue is prominent, if at times a little harsh, which is common with 1. Biographies- Cast. Comprehensive biographies for the four guys. TV show. Discography.
Three screens that list the albums released by the band. Album names only are listed, with no album covers displayed. Fairly boring really, and I must admit none of the album titles ring any bells with me - except perhaps for Greatest Hits.. The recent interviews with the four guys add some credibility to the overall production, that despite its short duration manages to cover pretty much all aspects of the band and the phenomena created around them.
All the problems can be attributed to the source material. The signature songs of The Monkees, I'm a Believer and Daydream Believer are particularly good. This display device is 1.
