LATEST UPDATES:

MARCH 17

A new LP find with a unique cover from Ecuador!

 

And a recently find from the estate of Marty Eck, this RCA cassette from Canada

It was not known that RCA released any tapes in Canada, so this is an extraordinary find.

Exciting to see new discoveries are still being made after all these years.

 

MARCH 9:

Created a new page for this single. The B-side (Buttermilk) was recorded circa '63-64
which makes this one of the earliest known Nesmith vocals.

Do Not Ask For Love was covered by the Monkees, but not seeing an official release until
Missing Links Vol. 2

On Facebook this week (3.13.24) Bill Chadwick had this to say:

"Mike is on it....I loaded up a bus that Randy Sparks provided and corralled everyone
signed to his company. Included were: myself, Mike Nesmith, Niles Brown, Del Ramos,
John London, Randy Sterling, Carol Strom, Owens Castleman, Michael Murphy
and the entire Back Porch Majority. Even I can’t recall who sang what,
especially since multiple people sang the same parts - Randy thought
it broadened the sound. I thought it muddled the track;
that is probably why it is impossible to figure who sang what."

Awareness almost released his entire catalog on CD, but it looks like they
went out of business before finishing.

February 16:

Last year Friday Music teased this release and now it is slated to be
released on Record Store Day, April 20, 2024. You should get in line right now.
But seriously, this is just the CD version on vinyl that Friday released
back in 2014 in their Mono Box Set.

 

FEBRUARY 9:

Found an updated I'm A Believer sleeve from Sweden, that matches the reverse
of Little Bit Me/Girl I Knew Somewhere, which was released only a few months later.

Golden Lion is considered a pirate label today, even though on the rear case it says
it acquired a license to release this.

 

And from Arista

The world wide hit Then & Now...

 

FEBRUARY 3:

ultimately, Roll With The Flow/Keep On was issued instead, a better choice!

 

Promo LP featuring their second single I'm A Believer/Steppin' Stone (SS-1719)
(Also, Ed Reilly)

There probably exists an LP like this for each of their singles in Japan.

FEBRUARY 1:

A major new find....a copy of Changes on 8-track from Canada.

No slipcover found with this copy, but the hunt is on to find more.


Except for the Bell Refocus 8-track, it was not known that Colgems/RCA
released any tapes from the Great White North.
