The Monkees posing in their signature matching shirts on the Screen Gems studio lot, 1966.
This fantastic color shot was taken by the legendary Hollywood photographer Gene Trindl on the Screen Gems studio lot. This was right at the very beginning, shot to promote their brand-new television show before it hit the airwaves and completely took over the charts.
Did you watch The Monkees show?👇️
On this day in 1967, the Monkees performed two shows to nearly 20,000 fans at London's Wembley Empire Pool.

On this day in 1980, Billy Joel's Glass Houses hit No. 1 on the Billboard album chart, where it stayed for six straight weeks. Powered by hits like "You May Be Right" and "It's Still Rock and Roll to Me," it later earned him a Grammy.

On this day in 1967, The Monkees released 'Headquarters,' their first album created with full creative control. Playing their own instruments and writing much of the music, the pop-rock group sent the album to #1 on the Billboard 200.
I sat down with Uncut Magazine recently to talk about the wild ride that was The Monkees. How it started, how it worked & how four guys from a TV show ended up making records that are still being played nearly 60 years later.
