LATEST UPDATES:
SEPTEMBER 23:
Another early EP from El Salvador:
Sadly, no picture sleeve; but any records from here are really tough to find.
Two Nez singles from New Zealand on the Stetson label,
where they released a staggering six records of his from the Pacific Arts years.
This was more than any other country, including the USA.
An advance promo copy of the only UK release on the Bell label:
Coming soon: a cache of Nevada Fighters from around the world,
a Monkees EP from Thailand and a Davy Jones promo from Australia.
SEPTEMBER 17:
Thanks to Lisa Manekofsky I've updated the Pocket Rockers
with all new photos from her collection:
September 15:
Thanks to Ben Belmares I've updated more of Nez's LPs and CDs
from his Pacific Arts, Rhino & Rio labels:
I've also added a mail order catalog from 1980,
which covers all his Pacific Arts releases:
It's interesting that he sold his radio special LP here,
and that might account for why there are so many copies out there.
AUGUST 23:
Error picture sleeve for the first single:
AUGUST 18:
Arista promo from Japan:
AUGUST 14:
Updated Michael's section and moved the USA stuff to its own page
and completely updated his solo singles to include every known release in the world.
Next up are his USA LP releases for Pacific Arts & Rio records.
AUGUST 12:
From the collection of Ed Reilly, a cool acetate of Peter's songs,
written in his own hand:
A 1987 promo letter from Spain, included with the
"Heart And Soul" single promoting the "Pool It!" LP:
It's the same info found on the back of the picture sleeve.
This appears to be common for Spain, as I've found 4 promo letters
for their RCA singles as well.
AUGUST 10:
Yesterday on Facebook Andrew said he had just finished mastering
the upcoming super deluxe box set, "More of the Monkees".
Hopefully they have already pressed copies of the single which was finished back in May
and the booklet; so this could come up for pre-order in September.
In The Beginning...
When I started collecting Monkee 45s and EPs back in 2006 I spent quite alot of time searching the net to see what was out there. Typically, fan sites will show what records they've found locally, plus a few odds and ends. There was a handful of good sites like this (see links) but thats it.
Then there are online forums where old collectors will occasionally post photos of what they have found. Hoffman music forums is the best I've seen of this.
The bane of collecting is that once you buy it, it just sits in a closet and you never look at it again. So I made this site so I can look at my collection and share it and the knowledge of what is out there worldwide.
