Great stuff !!! Totally non-commercial. Recorded in 1967 and issued in early 1968.

All but one of the songs were recorded by the Monkees (a couple of them weren't released until the Missing Link albums).

The album was made over a two-day session on November 18 and 19 1967 and featured the best musicians in Hollywood, including ten trumpets, ten trombones, ten saxophones, 2 drummers, five percussionists, four pianos, eight basses, seven guitars. As it was the weekend, all musicians were paid double time and the session was catered by Chasens, the finest restaurant in Hollywood. It all cost $50,000. Nesmith explained to Hal Blaine that he was about to pay a similar sum in tax and he would rather spend it on the sessions and write it off than give it to the IRS. Musicians include Hal Blaine, Bud Brisbois, Red Rhodes, James Burton and Doug Dillard (banjo) of legendary country rock / bluegrass band the Dillards.

ESSENTIAL ITEM FOR ANY MONKEES / PSYCH / PROG / COUNTRY ROCK FAN OR COLLECTOR !!!

Label: Killroy 19946. Condition record/cover: ex (three tiny harmless marks)/ex- (slight cornerwear, little dirty). VERY RARE !!!

IMPORTANT NOTE: As I live outside the US (The Netherlands) and the new Ebay policy considers everybody that sells on Ebay.com as being located IN the US (at least concerning shipping cost), the shipping cost on the search result lists ($4) are wrong! Please check my store for correct shipping cost.
