Product 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.

Customer Reviews
Lots of Bonus Tracks
This is the Monkee's first album, re-issued in two discs-one is a stereo mix, the other mono. I prefer the stereo mix. The mono seems kind of redundant and won't be very interesting to casual fans. But you can hear differences obviously. The album is pretty fun. The Monkees theme, Take a Giant Step, Last Train to Clarksville, and Let's Dance…   More reviews
Great Debut Album
This was one of the best debut albums of the 60's or possibly ever. If you are a Monkee fan, or not, you'll enjoy the fresh sound of every track on this album.…   More reviews
Great Music from a Classic Group
I am fifty and male, and loved the Monkees since I was a kid. I love they way they tweek these old albums from time to time. If you are a Monkees fan, I highly recommend it.   More reviews
I'm so mad I could squish grapes!
This, of course, is the legendary first album by the Monkees. Most of the album was produced by Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart, with the exception of the two Michael Nesmith songs, which Nesmith produced himself. Most of the material is quite good.

how in the world did they ever become so huge?
A middling album with a lot of uninteresting songs. How it ever became such a sensation is anybody's guess. The three stars are for the overall album as an interesting trove of different takes (different primarily, or exclusively, in who took the lead vocal on a given song), but really, how often you'll listen to the same album in stereo and then mono depends entirely…   More reviews
