The Monkees will celebrate their 50th anniversary with the release of a new album called Good Times.

The album will feature tracks performed by the Monkees which were written by others, including Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie, Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, and XTC co-founder Andy Partridge.

"Much like the Monkees early albums, Good Times features tracks written specifically for the band by some of the music world's most gifted songwriters," reads the product description at Amazon.

"To help bring the anniversary full circle, The Monkees completed songs for Good Times that were originally recorded & written for group during the 60s, including 'Love To Love' by Neil Diamond . . . Harry Nilsson wrote the title track 'Good Times', which he recorded at a session with Mike Nesmith in January 1968.

The production was never completed, so the band returned to the original session tape featuring Nilsson's guide vocal and have created a duet with his close friend Mickey Dolenz. 'Good Times' will mark the first time Dolenz and Nilsson have sung together since Dolenz May 1973 single 'Daybreak'."

Good Times, available for pre-order now via Amazon, is due June 10.
