"Everywhere a Sheik, Sheik"

According to Andrew Sandoval's The Monkees: The Day-by-Day Story of the 60s TV Pop Sensation, "Everywhere a Sheik, Sheik" - the thirty-fifth episode of The Monkees series (and the third of the second season) - was broadcast fifty years ago to-day (25 September 1967).  It was written by Jack Winter, directed by Alex Singer, and featured the songs "Love Is Only Sleeping" and "Cuddly Toy."  Sandoval describes the plot as: "Davy's hand in marriage becomes the object of desire for a wealthy Arabian princess."
