• Track Listing

Not only does this new album feature original Monkees Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork, but the late, much-loved Davy Jones is heard here, too, thanks to a vintage vocal heard on one of the songs. Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher and members of Weezer, Fountains of Wayne and Death Cab for Cutie joined Michael and Peter on the new songwriting here, but you’ll also discover some vintage delights. Among those are songs that have newly been completed but which were originally written and recorded for the Monkees in the ’60s; those include "Love to Love" by Neil Diamond (featuring the aforementioned Davy Jones vocal) and the title song, which was penned by Harry Nilsson and recorded by Harry at a session with Nesmith in January 1968. That track was never completed, but has been now, using the original session tape and employing Harry’s original guide vocal. Some of the other ’60s recordings rescued here feature the one and only Wrecking Crew…this is a bit of Monkees magic that beautifully combines fresh performances with recordings and songs dating from their ’60s heyday!
