The Monkees: All Things Monkees (Official Thread)

[METALPRIEST]

The Monkees, More Of The Monkees, Monkees Greatest Hits, Then & Now...The Best Of The Monkees. First 2 albums and 2 "Hits". Hmm, I thought I had 5 LP's, I guess I just have 4. Sorry, false advertising.

The first two are great! You gotta pick up Headquarters and Pices Aquarius Capricorn,Jones. Anything after that is all good too!!

But I think those two follow ups after the first two are primo allbums!!!

 

[Mr. Bob Dobolina]

Another great one.

 

[METALPRIEST]

^^^ Yes that!! HEAD! Get HEAD! It's incredible and if you do, get the movie of the same name!!

 

[Mr. Bob Dobolina]

Riddle me this Batman. The Critirion Collection has come out with a deluxe DVD of "Head", complete with commentaries by the Monkees, new interviews with Bob Rafelson and lots more extras. Problem: it's only available as part of a box set, yet when a copy shows up for bid on ebay, it goes for upwards of 200 dollars (I've been outbid four times). Clearly here is something that fans would love to have and pay a good price for. I'm sick of these companies moaning how "no one wants to buy CDs/DVDs anymore". Why don't they release this stuff?!

 

[METALPRIEST]

I have HEAD on DVD, but would LOVE a deluxe edition. They should do a DVD/Blu Ray combo pack with all the extras.

I'm sick of it too. Put this stuff out...just make sure not to over ship so you don't lose any money.

Clearly, many of these classic acts' management should know the size of their fan base, and what those fans would be wanting or demanding.

Ship reasonable amounts and watch them leave the shelves.

One great track off of Pices, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones is Salesman

I mentioned this as one of two albums that I would recommend. Gonna use a clip from the show for this tune.
