The Monkees – More Of The Monkees

Second German pressing has address of fanclub on back of cover in a box: "Write to THE MONKEES Fan Club c/o Screen Gems 1334 North Beechwood Drive Hollywood, California 90028". First German pressing misses this box.

I have heard that none of the band actually play on this but is just session musicians. Does anyone know whether that is true?

Sounds fantastic! Comes with a nice glossy sleeve which I always appreciate. Mine came signed by Mickey Dolenz, you can tell he’s a nice guy 😊 Numbered 006020

The pressings that don’t show "Music Supervision Don Kirshner" below the Columbia Pictures Corporation logo at left on the label are much harder to find as opposed to the labels that do feature the credit. In addition, look for the label Colgems to be spelled out on the back bottom right corner of the sleeve to ensure you have a 1st edition sleeve. Repressings changed that to the circled logo.

Anyone have an idea on how many of these were made since they were numbered ?

#000759 arrived with a tear in the spine and a bad jump skip on Track 1, Side 2. Runout Groove put me off for months when I requested an exchange and finally just refunded my money. Eventually I'll have to replace my bad copy. I enjoyed the bonus disc a lot.

Great sounding reissue, cut by KP on dead quiet vinyl, highly recommended.

Just found a nice mono COM-102 on Jan 20 2023 $10. The cover still has shrink wrap on it making the cover near mint.

My copy is very close matrix with the side 1 15S being on my side 2 and visa versa with the 13S
Matrix / Runout (Side A stamped exc. "R1" and "MR" etched): TZRM -8691-13S MR R1 (very hard to see the R1)
Matrix / Runout (Side B stamped exc. "MR" etched): TZRM -8692-15S MR

Has the 6 on back cover lower left. As of today I have not found a copy on here with my exact matrix. This seems to be very close but not quite. I'll keep looking.

Just found a nice mono COM-102 on Jan 20 2023 $10. Still has shrink wrap so the cover is NM. My copy may have been a brand new unopened copies for most of it's life since it really looks new and handled and played very little.

My copy has these matrix which appear to be opposite to the listed one above (variation 1). No mention of a MR or R1 also in matrix run out above.
