Album Description:
Originally released in 1966, THE MONKEES scored an amazing 78-week run on the Billboard® album chart, with 13 weeks at #1. Includes the #1 smash "Last Train To Clarksville" and the infectious "(Theme From) The Monkees," both written for the band by hit songwriting team Boyce & Hart. Also features Goffin & King's "Take A Giant Step" and David Gates' "Saturday's Child. " Disc 1's nine bonus tracks include previously unreleased alternate mixes of "The Kind Of Girl I Could Love" and "Papa Gene's Blues" plus a take of "I Don't Think You Know Me" featuring Micky Dolenz on vocals. Disc 2's eight bonus cuts include a previously unreleased demo version of "Propinquity (I've Just Begun To Care)" and a rare Kellogg's jingle. Each 2-CD Deluxe Limited EDITION features the original stereo album with bonus rarities on Disc 1, and the original mono album with even more rare treasures on Disc 2.

Welcome to the original boy band. Meticulously pieced together as a controlled alternative to The Beatles, Mike, Mickey, Davy and Peter were - as the expansive liner notes indicate - an unruly prefab four. The majordomo behind all of this, Don Kirshner, even describes Nesmith as a 'pain in the a$z' during the proceedings.
Funny thing was, the album still holds up 40 years later. It escapes my thinking exactly why I never bought this on CD (I have a very scratchy LP of this from my - ... Read More

Here is where all began. With a dramatic quick drum roll history is made, the greatest and most profitable merger between art and commerce and between two mediums. Yes, Elvis had his films and records and so did the Beatles but neither had their own weekly TV show. Witness the birth of the Faux Four. For something that was put together in assembly line fashion most of the songs are top notch and have a "mostly" cohesive sound throughout the album.
I was always partial to the Boyce & ... Read More

This is a band who hit it big in the 60's with some massive hits.Their TV series was very popular,and they seemed to do no wrong earlier in their careers.But a combination of things lead to this groups downfall.Changing times was one of them,and people found out the did not play their own instruments on the recordings.These days thats common,and even back then alot of bands had outside help to make their albums.But they struggled to produce the hits after a while,their show ended,band members left till ...

The Monkees created good music with catchy tunes and lyrics. Occasionally throughout their musical career The Monkees achieved a musical excellence the reached a level of greatness. You can hear elements of that greatness in this reissue, which includes both the stereo and original mono versions of the album, along with a bunch of bonus tracks. Some of the bonus tracks were released previously, but about a half dozen or so are new. If you have yet to get this album, this version is the version to have. ... Read More

These songs sound just as fresh, vibrant and wonderful as they did when I was seven years old. Classic tracks such as "Sweet Young Thing", "Let's Dance On", "Saturday's Child" and, of course, `Last Train to Clarksville" are true pop classics that deserve more respect and umbrage than the Monkees detractor's jibes - for not being an "organic" band. The fact remains, though, that David Jones, Mike Nesmith and Micky Dolenz's vocals combined with Mike and Peter Tork's (the fourth Monkee), Glen Campbell, Louie ... Read More
