Hey, check out this web site: http://www.videorarities.net/monkees.html. They have some really cool Monkees items including a 2-cd set entitled "A Bunch Of Bananas" which includes many rare gems. Volume 3 is due out in the fall. Check 'em out!!

Two possible releases to be released in the future are "Birds & The Bees" as a deluxe box set! And Head special edition, according to the podcasts I posted in another thread.

Oh yeah! I've run across that site before, but had forgotten about it. Interesting stuff! I gotta get some of that stuff! Has anyone ordered any DVD's from them? I was wondering about the DVD encoding. If it's done professionally, it should play on any player.

I'm wondering because I have 2 DVD players: one is tempermental and only plays professionally done DVD's; the other one will play anything you put in it.

I ordered from them, the DVDs are DVD-R's.


Check your player what it can play. The other one you have that plays professional DVDs must be a older model.

Are the CD's mastered from vinyl copies or from actual master tapes?

Definietly not from the master tapes. The stuff they have is all bootleg material. Quality is from Poor to Fair.
