Description
Offered for sale is a still sealed original U.S. pressing of The Monkees Golden Hits by the Monkees, issued as a mail order item.
About this copy: This copy of The Monkees Golden Hits is a 1970 U.S. stereo pressing on the Colgems label.
As the album is still sealed, the record is presumably new and unplayed.
The wrap is fully intact with no rips, tears, or holes.
A beautiful copy of a rare Monkees LP that is usually found in poor condition, as this cover is prone to wear. This is the first copy we’ve ever had for sale.
Background: Released in 1970, The Monkees Golden Hits is a compilation album that was sold only via mail order.
To purchase the record, you had to send in $1.50 and two box tops from Alpha Bits breakfast cereal. The album did not sell well and is one of the rarest U.S. Monkees LPs.
As Peter Tork was no longer a member of the band in 1970, the back cover photo shows only Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, and Mike Nesmith.
Tracks are:
- (Theme From) The Monkees (shown as “Monkees Theme” on cover)
- Valeri (shown as “Vallerie” on cover)
- Forget That Girl
- I Wanna Be Free
- Tear Drop City (shown as “Teardrop City” on cover)
- Last Train to Clarksville
- Pleasant Valley Sunday
- I’m a Believer
- The Day We Fall In Love
