Monkees - Selections from Headquarters Sessions LP from Rhino

Found this on Amazon this morning while looking at the prices for the upcoming Changes & Present releases coming. I have the Headquarters Sessions cds from Rhino Handmade. This is interesting but I probably won't be buying. Vinyl only I think.

Thanks for the heads up!

 

Nice! Thank you!

 

On vinyl too! Very interesting release.

 

With the timing, I wonder if they could be considering playing some of these selections on the coming tour

 

Are you ready for "She's So Far Out, She's In"? I know I am.

 

East Virginia!

 

Very nice. I hope they do a CD counterpart.

 

If this is done with the same quality as the Head LP that Rhino put out last year, I am THRILLED!!!!

 

I have the "Sessions" CD set already, but the Bellman-mastered Rhino "Head" LP is the only reason I am interested in buying this... Rhino's been doing some terrific vinyl lately. I'd love to see more audiophile Monkees vinyl.

I'm curious to see which tracks will be in this set.

 

cool! I do not have a vinyl player though, maybe need to invest on one. Wish I saved my vinyls, I thought they were obsolete when cd came out.

 

Track listing up now. 8 selections, red vinyl, 2500 copies....

Is this a 12 inch or an EP ? What is that 10 minutes per side?

 

Good question... eight tracks?
At first I assumed there would be chatter and shedding on each track, but doesn't look like it. So it must be EP length.
Or maybe there will be more and it's not listed.

The good news is that the Midnight Train demo is on it.

 

Maybe it's at 45 rpm?

 

Possible CD counterparts From Headquarter Sessions For Selections......

Side One.... 1. - Disc 3 Track # 17. 2. - Disc 3 Track # 18 or 28.. 3. - Disc 3 Track # 3. 4. - Disc 2 Track # 19... Side Two.... 1. Disc 1 Track # 12. 2. - Disc 1 Track # 13. 3. - Disc 1 Track # 15. 4. - Disc 3 Track # 16.

 

Why don't they just reissue the full set again?

 

Quote : " Why don't they just reissue the full set again? .............." On Vinyl .......... Someone get Michelle66.. An alternate Headquarters sessions...

 

Now $13.99..

 

$14? Red vinyl? Sold.

 

There's also Mp3 Downloads of the entire set,too,on Amazon!

 

I was really looking forward to this, but only 8 selections? I suppose it's cheap enough, but I'm going to have to pass. If it were up to me, it would be a standard length with 7 tracks per side of the real gems on that release.

 

Anyone else get an email from Amazon saying there was a delay from the supplier? There doesn't seem to be an official release date on this one now. Interesting.

 

Yup I got it.

 

I didn't....but Amazon still shows my order as "Not yet shipped"....with an estimated delivery date between December 7 and 11.
