(Vocal/instrumental group, 1966–71, 1986–89, 1993–97, 2001–02, 2010–present)
Four amenable youths – Mike Nesmith (guitar), Peter Tork (vocals), Mickey Dolenz (drums) and Davy Jones (vocals) – were hired by a Hollywood business conglomerate to play an Anglo-American pop combo in a 1966 TV series that was to be networked worldwide. Success was instant, and an international No. 1 with ‘I’m A Believer’ precipitated further smashes that continued after the final programme in 1968. Decades later, re-runs of the series struck chords with both pre-teens and their nostalgic parents.
