Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Unless you're a snob, a good Monkees collection belongs on your shelves, not too far from discs by the Turtles, the Lovin' Spoonful, and other avatars of clean, occasionally rocking '60s Top 40 pop. Greatest Hits is a more than generous stack, bringing together not only the obvious megahits ("I'm a Believer," "Pleasant Valley Sunday," the incredibly propulsive "Valleri") but also a number of tunes that had the bad luck to fall on the wrong side of the act's swift rise and fall. Foremost among these is "Porpoise Song," a lyrically incomprehensible Goffin/King stab at psychedelia that's at once a crass cash-in and one of the loveliest, most fragile sounds to emerge from the American hippie dream. --Rickey Wright

Album Description:
Budget-priced, 20 track retrospective featuring '(ThemeFrom) The Monkees' and all 11 of their top 40 hits from the'60s: 'D.W. Washburn', 'Tapioca Tundra', 'Valleri','Daydream Believer', 'Words', 'Pleasant Valley Sunday','Last Train To Clarksville', 'I'm A

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Who cares if they were "manufactured?" They could still hold their own against much of the competition
Nowadays, the creation of "pseudo-groups" strictly for television entertainment is a heavily over-employed practice that usually ends up having been a bad idea. However, back in 1966, when The Monkees were created for their own show, this was one of the first such instances of this, and today it still remains one of the finest. Though not visionaries like The Beatles or The Beach Boys, the group did have one of THE feel-good hits of all time with their #1 "I'm A Believer," and this collection does ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - great!
I bought this for my mom's birthday, and since I am a Monkees fan as well, we both enjoyed this CD very much! It has all their greatest hits and if you really love The Monkees, I recommend this! Even if you only watch their television show, you should try listening to their music as well!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not Bad!!!
My mom is a big Monkees fan, but I think they're okay. The only song I like that they sing is I'm a Believer. For a long time, I've loved this song. If you are a Monkees fan, you'll love THE MONKEES GREATEST HITS!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Stop, In the Name of Hits
The Monkees have been packaged and re-packaged so much that it is sometimes quite baffling to figure out where to start when trying to track down a good "greatest hits" package without taking a great hit in the bank account.

Well, the look is over.

This 20 song collection captures what made the group a hit machine, with some nice tidbits in the mix. Granted, the foursome was a corporate creation, but it cannot be denied the immense pop culture impact they had back in the day ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - kids. delights
As a special education teacher, I play a wide variety of music from around the world for my students, every era, from pop to classic to heavy metal. My students get into the beat with something that has a good one. With this album, their positive response was immediate as was my own for this was the music of my generation. Great product with super and rapid shipment. This is why I continue to do my online shopping with Amazon and refer my education friends and parents to your site.
