The Monkees

In January 1989, The Monkees appeared on the British talk show "Aspel & Company," performing their hit song "I'm a Believer." At this point in their careers, The Monkees were in a phase of revival after reuniting in the mid-1980s, following their initial success in the 1960s. Prior to this live performance, they had released the album "Pool It!" in 1987, which marked their first studio album in over a decade. Although "Pool It!" received mixed reviews, it reflected their effort to re-establish relevance in a changing musical landscape. The band's 1989 tour of the UK also contributed to their resurgence in popularity, showcasing their enduring fan base. Notably, this performance reinforced their legacy and highlighted the nostalgia surrounding their previous work, as they continued to attract audiences who cherished their contributions to pop culture.
