This has an extremely strong song selection, but as cool as the song selection is, & though it features a hefty 25 tracks, this clearly ain't much a value at all for US shoppers at the current price. I mean, heck--there's the Rhino reissues of the actual albums, box sets, a pile of other compilations... If you're a newer fan & somehow see this cheap, it may be the best single disc Monkee compilation around, but otherwise you can get a lot more for your money.

Excellent song selection, but copies of Arista's excellent 25-track "Then & Now, the Best of the Monkees" CD are still floating around in good condition used, for much less. Unless you just HAVE to have the import, look elsewhere until the price becomes reasonable.
