Chart positions from the Australian Chart Book: The Albums 1952-2018
written and compiled by David Kent.
"I was heavily involved with this project way back then, it was important
to get on the market as there was no Monkees material available on the market
at the time....we used to scour second hand shops and make do with
compilation cassettes recorded from TV. The sound quality, or lack thereof,
was that there were no masters of the Monkee recordings available
in Australia and we used needle drop recordings from the best quality copies
of the records that could be found among my friends and acquaintances."
