Description
The Monkees: Original Album Series is a CD set by The Monkees.
The Monkees were an American pop rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1966, comprising Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith, Peter Tork and Davy Jones.
They were conceived in 1965 as a fictional band for the sitcom The Monkees by the television producers Bob Rafelson and Bert Schneider and had great success through the remainder of the 60's.
This item is a Five CD box set containing a quintet of original albums from the '60's popsters (plus bonus tracks): The Monkees, More of the Monkees, Headquarters, Pisces Aquarius Capricorn And Jones and the Birds the Bees And the Monkees.
These albums are the first five albums from the pre-fab quartet and most certainly the best. The albums are packaged in mini LP sleeves with a slipcased outer box.

External Reviews
"A true blast from the past! Anyone who grew up in the '60s and '70s will absolutely love this set. I'm thrilled to have all five of my favourite original Monkees albums on CD at last. It's such a treat listening, singing, and (I confess) dancing (when only the dog can see me) to these wonderful tunes!" - Ebay Review.
" . . . the real joy of this set is re-discovering the non-hit album tracks . . . the great, and merely good, songs outweigh the lesser ones, and there's something to be said too, for the "original album" experience. if you're a Monkees fan, especially if you don't have their music yet on CD, get this one - it's well worth the price." - Amazon Review.
