Tell your friends. After nearly a yearlong wait, we are finally ready to unleash the latest of our restored Monkees reissues. In addition to new liner notes, previously unseen photos and unbelievable packaging, here’s what you can expect from the releases on July 10th.
HEADQUARTERS:
Presented in both original mono and stereo mixes, this landmark recording has been newly mastered. In particular, the stereo mix is sourced from a different tape than the 1995 Rhino CD. As for the bonus tracks, they hail from a variety of sources. Let’s run them down and explain.
Disc One:
“All Of Your Toys” (stereo remix) – this is a newly created stereo mix compiled by resynching the various stages of the production multi tracks. This resynching allowed for greater separation of the instruments in the mix and fuller fidelity.
“The Girl I Knew Somewhere” (version one, stereo remix) – The Michael Nesmith sung recording of this song appears on this collection for the first time in stereo. This new mix was achieved by resynching various stages of the production multi tracks allowing for a different and longer mix.
“A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You” (stereo remix) – This is perhaps the first complete stereo mix of this track that has ever appeared. Previous stereo mixes lacked the final overdubs heard on the single. They’re all here in wide stereo and superior fidelity.
“She Hangs Out” (single version – stereo remix) – The legendary withdrawn version of this song appears on this collection for the first time in stereo! Listen out for some extra studio chat and a cool vocal ad lib at the end from Davy and Jeff Barry.
“Love To Love” (stereo remix) – This fresh remix of “Love To Love” features a better representation of what appeared on the original mono mix.
“You Can’t Tie A Mustang Down” (stereo remix) – This remix features some previously unheard vocal work from Davy and appears in full fidelity stereo.
“If I Learned To Play The Violin” (stereo remix) – All the elements of this track were resynched for a first time true stereo mix with a longer fade.
“99 Pounds” (stereo remix) – A first time true stereo mix for this Changes album track!
“The Girl I Knew Somewhere” (single version – stereo remix) - This is a newly created stereo mix compiled by resynching the various stages of the production multi tracks. This resynching allowed for greater separation of the instruments in the mix and fuller fidelity, as well as a nice long fade.
“Randy Scouse Git” – This is one of the alternate takes that previously appeared on the Headquarters Sessions set.
“Tema Dei Monkees” – A new stereo mix of the raw multi-track. You hear every last little bit of Italian that Micky muttered at the March 1967 session.
Disc Two:
“All Of Your Toys” (mono mix) – This is the original mono mix made in early 1967 for the aborted single release of “Toys.” Note that this mix lacks some of the final overdubs that are heard on Disc One’s stereo remix.
“The Girl I Knew Somewhere” (version one, mono mix) – This newly discovered original Mike sung mono mix from 1967 is previously unissued.
“A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You” (mono single mix) – Forty years after it was first issued, “A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You” appears for the first time on CD in it’s original hit single mono mix!
“She Hangs Out” (mono single mix) – The legendary withdrawn version in its original mono mix from 1967 (with a bit of pre-song warm-up).
“The Girl I Knew Somewhere” (mono single mix) – The original mono hit single version!
“Nine Times Blue” (demo) – Nesmith’s ’67 solo demo newly mixed and mastered.
“She’ll Be There” & “Midnight Train” (demo) – newly mixed in stereo.
“Peter Gunn’s Gun” - A vintage Headquarters jam, newly mixed.
“Jericho” & “Pillow Time” (demo) – both appear as heard on the rare Headquarters sessions set.
PISCES, AQUARIUS, CAPRICORN & JONES, LTD.
Presented in both mono and stereo mixes, this landmark recording has been newly mastered. In particular, the stereo mix is sourced from the first generation original stereo master mixes. Also of note, the mono mix has never appeared in full on CD. As for the bonus tracks, they hail from a variety of sources. Let’s run them down and explain.
Disc One:
“Goin’ Down” – the original stereo mix from 1967.
“Salesman” – a new stereo mix featuring a longer fade, Nez’s cigarette rolling rap, plus some previously unheard chat and vocals.
“She Hangs Out” – a new stereo mix of the four track master prior to the addition of Shorty Rogers’ brass arrangement. Features a longer intro, a longer outro and other anomalies.
“Love Is Only Sleeping” – a new mix of the version that appeared on the ’95 CD with some extra studio chat.
“What Am I Doing Hangin’ ‘Round?” – features a never before heard lead vocal performance from Michael Nesmith (and a longer ending).
“Star Collector” - a new stereo mix of the four-track master prior to the addition of the Moog synthesizer overdubs. Features a longer intro, a longer outro and other anomalies – this is the longest version ever!
“Riu Chiu” – the original television recording featuring all four Monkees on vocals appears here for the first time on CD.
Disc Two:
“Special Announcement,” “Salesman” (alternate mix), “Cuddly Toy” (alternate mix) – these tracks are the original 1967 mixes as they were set to appear on an early line-up of the album. By programming your CD player, you can recreate the original sequence for the original sequence.
“Goin’ Down” – the original hit single mix (albeit with a longer fade).
“The Door Into Summer” (alternate mix) – the previously issued alternate mono mix from 1967 featuring a different vocal performance from Nesmith.
“Daily Nightly” – a previously unissued mono mix of this song lacking Micky’s Moog synthesizer overdubs.
“Star Collector” – a previously unissued long mono mix of this song featuring Moog aplenty!
And what about the single?
If you buy both CD’s from monkees.com or rhino.com you get a free 7-inch vinyl single (a limited edition of 2500) of two unissued tracks. “I Didn’t Know You Had It In You Sally” was taped for the group in February ’67, but Micky didn’t lay his vocal on the track till ’69. The flipside is an alternate mix of “Daydream Believer” before the addition of brass and strings. It features a cool extended ending. The single comes in an old-fashioned picture sleeve that is sure to delight.

Добавлю пару слов о двух ныне здравствующих участниках группы.
Кенни Джонс владеет поло-клубом Hurtwood Polo Club, является одним из учредителей благотворительного фонда The Small Faces Charitable Trust и собрал состав The Jones Gang, где кроме него ещё участвуют Рик Уиллс (Small Faces и Foreigner) на бас-гитаре и Роберт Харт (Bad Company) как вокалист. В 2005 году они выпустили альбом Any Day Now. Сайт, не обновлявшийся аж с 2005 года- http://www.jonesgangmusic.com
Иэн МакЛаган перебрался в Остин, Техас, США, также имеет свою группу The Bump Band. Выпускает альбомы и довольно регулярно выступает. Написал автобиографическую книгу All the Rage. Официальный сайт http://www.macspages.com
Маленькая поправочка-это копия французской EP (обложка прилагается), а сам сингл Waterloo Sunset/Act Nice And Gentle выпустят на 7-дюймовом виниловом диске в ознаменование 40-летия выхода этой замечательной песни.
Сегодня с утра в прогнозе погоды (!) упоминали об этом событии. Приводили примерный разнос артистов по городам - Мадонна будет на Уэмбли, а Уотерс в Нью-Йорке. Также кратко упоминали о билетах и их порядке продажи-надо зарегистрироваться, выиграть в лотерею и заплатить не менее 100 долларов. (информация неточная). В общем, Live Aid Mk III.
Группа очень интересная в классическом своём понимании (при Бэкмене/Каммингсе). Одна общая черта у всех альбомов 1968-75 годов-присутствие длинной вещи (более 6 минут), сначала психоделического типа, затем намекающей на прогрессивный рок. Но на их альбом 1994 года без слёз смотреть нельзя-метал-поп образца 80-х годов под знаменитейшим именем... (а больше не имеем)
И ведь оба у Ринго в All-Starr Band оказались!

По некоторым сведениям, следующие два делюкс-переиздания (Headquarters и PAС&J, Ltd) планируется выпустить в серии Rhino Handmade с распространением через Интернет исключительно.
