{"title":"The Monkees","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Monkees are an American pop rock band, formed in Los Angeles in 1965 for a television show of the same name. The original members were Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith, Peter Tork, and Davy Jones, who together created a blend of rock, pop, folk, and psychedelic music. The Monkees are most notable for their hit songs such as \"I'm a Believer\" and \"Last Train to Clarksville\". Despite initially being a manufactured band for television, they became a significant part of the 1960s pop culture and influential in the development of music video production.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"valleri-1","title":"Valleri \/ A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You","description":"\u003cp\u003eOriginally released on Colgems 1019.   Just like new copy of these two great hits!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Monkees","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48514510520553,"sku":null,"price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0742\/8508\/9001\/files\/R-12417971-1534880101-7170.jpg?v=1785143515"},{"product_id":"d-w-washburn-its-nice-to-be-with-you-2","title":"D.W.

In addition to another Tommy Boyce-Bobby Hart song (on the B side), the Monkees for the first time tap Neil Diamond for the chart-topping A side. Diamond had recently had his first top 10 hit (\"Cherry, Cherry\"), and I'm sure he was delighted to have this huge Monkees hit in his catalog. \"I'm A Believer\" became the biggest hit of the group's career, hogging the #1 spot on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for seven weeks!

This single's picture sleeve came in several variations... some in full color like this one, some in 2 colors, some with the white banner at the bottom, some not, etc. I believe the full-color sleeves are the most valuable.
