Album Description:
This Definitive collection contains everything that even the worryingly obsessive fan might need. From the recognised karaoke classics like 'Daydream Believer' and 'Last Train to Clarkesville' to lesser known known songs. There are 29 tracks here to confirm that The Monkees were far more than just a soulless exercise in hype and hope. The gently frazzled psychedelia of 'Porpoise Song' and 'Randy Scouse Git's rinky-dink racket also included go some way to proving in fact that they are worthy of comparison with any other pop group of the period.

This fine MONKEES compilation has few flaws.
Disc One is a solid set of the MONKEES best tracks. Almost all the singles are here, with the exception of "D.W. Washburn" and "Tapioca Tundra." "Washburn" generally fares better on retrospectives than "Tundra" however, perhaps due to it's higher peak chart position (#19). As for the Mike Nesmith single, it's puzzling how BEST OF, GREATEST HITS and even "DEFINITIVE" collections sleight it consistently, despite the record having reached #34 ... Read More

The first manufactured 'super-group'. Originally four lads chosen to star in a sitcom about a band, within weeks they were a band in a sitcom. The tracks Daydream believer, I'm a believer, Last train to Clarksville and the Monkees theme are worth the asking price alone ($20 in the UK). And this compilation must contain just about everything worthwhile they did. I loved the TV series as a boy, and I was already a big fan of Mickey Dolenz (as young Corki in Circus boy) - and he sings as well! I also ... Read More

This compilation has one CD including 29 of Monkees hits and best recordings. CD 2 is interesting for people who have not bought any of the Missing Links albums.
All tracks on the second CD have been released on one of the 3 Missing Links albums. Among these outtakes and rarities are some really fine tracks, many of which are much superior to what was actually released on the original albums. Most Michael Nesmith songs are fine; some even great, like "Circle Sky", Propinquity" and "Hollywood". ... Read More

This nicely designed German-produced compilation has 2 discs. The first disc is compromised of the major songs, it is very similar to the Arista Greatest Hits from 1986. Also, with this set is a nice 20 page booklet with a few rare color photos and interesting text.
The first disc is compromised of the major songs, it is very similar to the out-of-print Arista's Greatest Hits from 1986, however there are few different selections of songs here and there.

Hard-core Monkee fans will love the sound quality and the packaging. The overall sonics of the songs have never sounded better as far as I know. (I'm a hard-core fan who has heard all their c.d.'s except "Music Box") The linear notes are informative and do include updated musician lists. (Although, some of it may still be incorrect, i.e. I do think Peter played the bass on "Goin' Down" not guitar as listed).
Also, for hard-core Monkee fans the Bonus disc of the "Missing Links" material will clearly state ... Read More
