Notes

  • The copy of "Daydream Believer" presented here is the 1986 stereo mix which is 8 seconds longer than the copy presented on the album The Birds, the Bees & the Monkees. [1]
  • The copy of "Listen to the Band" presented here is the 1969 "fake" stereo mix from The Monkees Present which is 15 seconds longer than the copy presented as a single. [2]
  • The copy of "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" presented here is the 1969 stereo mix without the handclaps found on the mono mix. This copy features Davy singing "no, no" over the bridge. [3]
  • The copy of "The Girl I Knew Somewhere" presented here is the original 1967 stereo mix without the additional backing vocals during the harpsichord bridge on the 1987 stereo mix that is most commonly used today. [4]
  • All the songs featured on this album (with the exception of "Hold on Girl") are featured on most of the following Monkees greatest hits albums.
