Monkee Business

Monkee Business interweaves four biographies of Micky Dolenz, Peter Tork, Michael Nesmith and the late Davy Jones into one fascinating and compelling narrative. In this revised edition Lefcowitz follows the story to the present day, containing never-before-seen photographs and a foreword by magician Penn Jillette. If you don't believe the Monkees were one of the most influential media phenomenon of the last fifty years Monkee Business will make a believer out of you. This tale of overnight success and Faustian bargains argues the Monkees forever changed the making and marketing of TV, rock'n'roll and brands. With hits like "I'm a Believer" and "Daydream Believer" still winning loyal fans generations later, the Monkees have become an American entertainment institution. This is the definitive biography of a rock and roll legend.
