After the success of their top thirty Instant Replay album, The Monkees were soon back in the recording studio thanks to the Saturday morning airings of their classic Monkees television show on CBS in 1969. These critically-acclaimed shows were a launching pad for a plethora of new songs that weren't originally used in the programs and helped launch their superstar status to a whole new legion of fans, while maintaining their millions of followers worldwide.

Originally released in 1969, The Monkees Present was the eighth hit album from the The Monkees on Colgems Records. As a more introspective session from the band, each Monkee gets a solid opportunity to present their own individual aura in the band format, making this a highly memorable effort.

The Monkees Present featured two amazing hit singles from Mike Nesmith with "Listen To The Band," featuring the rare original LP mix, and "Good Clean Fun." Always the innovator, Nesmith's compositions here truly predate the southern California country-rock sound by several years, featuring some of Nashville's finest musicians of the sixties.

The late great Davy Jones outdoes himself with the brilliant soulful balladry of "If I Knew." He continues the groove with his hip café leaning sounds of "French Song," plus a look to his past Monkees affiliation with Boyce and Hart's rocker "Looking For The Good Times," originally recorded during their More Of The Monkees sessions.

Micky Dolenz resonates his much emulated talents with incredible performances on the album opener "Little Girl." This tune features the stunning guitar work of Louie Shelton, who did the amazing speed guitar licks on their hit "Valeri." Dolenz also hit the pop music charts with his protest single "Mommy And Daddy" which is also included in this masterwork. Plus a tender lullaby "Pillow Time" written by his mom closes out this wonderful twelve song classic from these legendary superstars.

Friday Music is honored and proud to continue its extensive Monkees 180-gram audiophile vinyl series with the classic The Monkees Present, for the first time on limited edition 180-gram translucent yellow vinyl. This highly collectable album has been unavailable on vinyl for many years, making it one of the more collectable albums in their amazing hit filled catalog of recordings. It is now impeccably mastered from the original Colgems Records tapes by Joe Reagoso (The Monkees, Davy Jones, Elvis Presley). To help celebrate the 2012 Monkees Reunion, we have also included the original black and white album cover not seen in years in a gatefold presentation to enhance your Monkees listening experience even further.

GRADING. Grading is visual only unless otherwise stated. I go by Goldmine standards and try to be conservative. I will play grade on certain items only - it is just impossible for me to play grade everything I put on EBAY.

RECORD GRADING:

MINT (M) ---- It should be SEALED and appear to be brand new. Mint means STILL SEALED, NEVER PLAYED.
NEAR MINT (NM or NM-) ---- OPENED or UNSEALED. Otherwise mint but has one or two tiny inconsequential flaws that do not affect play. Covers should be close to perfect with minor signs of wear or age just becoming evident.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG++ or strong VG++ or VG+++) The record or cover that all but the most particular collector would say looks outstanding. Cover may have insignificant manufacturers defect such as notch hole or cut corner.
VERY GOOD PLUS (VG+ or strong VG+) The record has been handled and played infrequently or very carefully.  On a disc, there may be light paper scuffs from sliding in and out of a sleeve or the vinyl or some of the original luster may be lost. A slight scratch that did not affect play would be acceptable  for most collectors.  Cover has most of its original gloss and has been well taken care of.  Minor seam splits may be acceptable.
VERY GOOD (VG or strong VG) ---- Record displays visible signs of handling and playing, such as loss of vinyl luster, light surface scratches, groove wear and spindle trails. Some audible surface noise, non-feelable marks that might or will affect the sound as mild occasional surface noise or periodic pops/clicks. Usually a cover is VG when one or more of these problems are evident: ring wear, seam splits, bent corners, loss of gloss, stains, etc.
VERY GOOD- (VG- or G+) Record will show signs same as VG with heavier wear including noticeable groove wear and feelable marks that will likely pop or click.  Popping or clicking will be most evident through quieter passages.  Record should play all the way through, but may skip.
GOOD (G) ---- Well played with little luster and significant surface noise. Despite defects, record should still play all the way through without skipping, but may skip. Several cover flaws will be apparent, but should not obliterate the artwork.  Filler copy until a better one can be found.
POOR (P) ---- Any record or cover that does not qualify for the above "Good" grading should be seen as Poor. Only the rarest of records should ever be graded as Poor while the others should go to the trash heap.


DISCLAIMER. Due to the number of frivolous returns which were unwarranted, and due to the nature of sound recorded products that can be easily copied, there will no longer be a free return policy. I will charge a $10.00 return fee for all returns - this amount will be deducted from the Paypal refund of the returned item. If item is truly defective the entire purchase amount will be refunded as long as the item is in the same condition as it was sent. 

***BUYER PAYS FOR ALL RETURN SHIPPING FEES.***
