The Monkees - Headquarters (50th Anniversary Edition) [Red] Vinyl Record

The Headquarters album by The Monkees is a significant turning point in their musical journey, now available in this special limited red colored vinyl pressing with MONO sound.

Released in 1967, this album marked the moment when The Monkees seized creative control from music coordinator Don Kirshner, who had previously dictated their recording sessions with outside songwriters and session musicians. After growing frustrated by their limited involvement in the music, The Monkees fought back—leading to a tense confrontation where Mike Nesmith famously punched a hole in the wall during a January 1967 meeting.

This iconic album showcases The Monkees' determination to be recognized as more than just a "Pre-Fab Four" television band, proving their musical credibility as they played their own instruments and contributed to the songwriting process. Headquarters became a key milestone in the band's discography, featuring memorable tracks such as "You Told Me" and "For Pete's Sake." This limited red vinyl edition, presented in MONO sound, is a must-have for fans who want to experience the raw, authentic energy of The Monkees as they took control of their music and carved out their place in pop-rock history.
