The problem with that first Monkees album is the sonics. It wasnt recorded well, as the guitars screetch like nails on a blackboard, the bass is mixed too low, there is audible distortion on several tracks, and the actual vinyl mastering did nothing to help those issues. An improvement is the German RCA 1966 issue of that Lp, it sounds much smoother, for lack of a better word. (same goes for More of The Monkees). This is why what is REALLY needed in the Monkees re-release program is a top to bottom, ground up remix of all the tracks on that album, using todays digital tools to correct many of the flaws of the original 1966 recording, and the album released on a Hi Res format like SACD. My research on this issue returns that they are still missing some of the Multitracks for that first album, "Clarksville" being one of them. But at this point, with all the tape searches that have been made, if those missing multis havent showed up by now, they may only be found decades from now, buried in a Film warehouse in film cans with Screen Gems TV productions. So, I say, remix all the multis you DO have from that album, and for the rest, identify the best sounding stereo mixdown tapes you have, remaster to the highest sonics possible (and not just "louder") and release it on SACD. And then do the same thing for "More of The Monkees". In fact, both remastered albums on one SACD would make a heck of a new Monkees product, especially for the 2019 Christmas season. Are you listening, Rhino Records?

What is REALLY needed in the Monkees re-animation program is a top to bottom, ground up remix of all the bone and gristle from Davy and Peter's carcasses, using today's digital tools to correct many of the flaws of their original 1966 physiques, and the results released onto an unsuspecting world.
In fact, both of their rotting heads grafted onto one rampaging monstrous body would make a heck of a new Monkees product, especially for the 2019 Christmas season. Are you listening, Rhino Records?
Two more and they could have this:

I'm okay with anything as long as it preserves Davy's man-teats.

Two more and they could have this: I recognize Jo Anne Worley on the left, but who are the other three supposed to be? (The second from the right looks a bit like Rachel Maddow, but that can't be right.)

#4 looks like Jack Nicholson’s Joker with an off-model color scheme.

No, no, no. From left to right I think it's Leanne Grimes's fugly monkey-faced brother, Sir Paul, Michael Jackson and Mark David Chapman.
