[net.tv] Monkees TV video

Sometime after the demise of the Monkees TV show, they made an hour
long TV special.  The plot, such as it was, was surreal and fairly
stupid, but some new songs were played which I've never heard anywhere
else.  (A haunting snatch of Davy's "A String For My Kite" sticks in my
mind.)  I have a crusty audio tape of this show, recorded at 1 7/8 ips
on reel-to-reel, which is so noisy as to be almost unlistenable.  Does
anyone know of a source for a copy of this show, either audio or
audio-video?

[When I was in high school, the cost of an hour's worth of reel-to-reel
tape at 1 7/8 was big bucks.  Two or three bucks, at least.  I couldn't
afford a faster speed, especially since I was taping all the Star Trek
episodes during their original run.  Ah, youth ...]
