Daydream Believers: The Monkees' Story

Corrected entry: The song "All of Your Toys" is said in this film to have been released on the "Headquarters" album. It was recorded during the "Headquarters" session, but due to a copyright dispute, was dropped from the album before its release.

Correction: Nowhere is it implied that "All of Your Toys" made it onto the "Headquarters" LP. Many songs were recorded, with some featured in the show that were never initially released, or were re-recorded for release later. Most have since seen release as bonus tracks or on rarities collections.

Factual error: As shown here, the Beatles really did throw a "welcome" party for the Monkees when they came to the UK. But unlike what is shown here, neither Mike nor Davy attended the event.
