LATEST UPDATES:
MAY 21:
"Nevada Fighter" from Portugal
Screen Gems trade ad from August 1969:
MAY 9:
Added chart positions for Nesmith in Australia where he did
quite well
with "Joanne" (#3) and "Silver Moon" (#11).
MAY 7:
"Instant Replay" from Jamaica.
Curiously, every LP seems to come with a Canadian jacket.
MAY 1:
"That Was Then, This Is Now" uncut jukebox strip:
Yet another 'Pisces' hype sticker, this one from Canada:
USA and New Zealand:
Did RCA, a distributer or a store add these to the jacket?
The NZ version is stuck right on the jacket whereas other
two are on the shrink wrap.
APRIL 27:
Finally found the last two Nesmith picture sleeves I was missing from Japan:
APRIL 20:
Rare black label version of this UK Arista single from 1976:
APRIL 19:
Reader Jude Macartney reports that it appears the Instant Replay box set
is now sold out. It first went on sale in November 2011 and it is just amazing
it took 7+ years to sell all those copies (I estimate 6000 made).
That only leaves the "More of the Monkees" as the final box set still available.
I'm hoping Rhino continues the series with the Super Deluxe
version of Headquarters, perhaps this year or next.
New one this week:
"Tear Drop City" from El Salvador
APRIL 11:
Finally found the white cover version of "Greatest Hits" from Canada:
There are a surprisingly few of these out there (I only know of 6 copies).
This was the second version after the commonly found brown cover
and may have had a relatively few copies pressed
before the group
was dropped by Colgems/RCA in early 1971.
APRIL 5:
Davy's second solo LP on Bell Records/Sony from Japan with the obi on top:
This album shows up for sale every so often,
but I've never seen one with the obi before.
"Joanne" promo from Australia:
"A Little Bit Me..." from Japan with the 400 Yen price sticker:
APRIL 2:
Another off center promo label for "Someday Man/Listen To the Band";
this time on both sides:
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.
