The Monkees was my favorite sitcom as a child. Before video recording, I would use my Radio Shack Cassette Recorder to capture the audio of each episode. I didn’t have an external microphone, so I would stack up books and place the recorder by the TV speaker. I would then re-play the tape over and over and sing along to each episode’s songs.
