Hörzu is a German weekly TV magazine and
starting in the 60's they produced and released records as a subsidiary of EMI.
They acquired the rights from German record companies to advertise (in their magazine)
and sell LPs through their mail-order department to make it easier for people to buy records.
They were considered a discount label, much like the record clubs.
This was the only release for the Monkees on this label.
