The Monkees IN MONO Vinyl Box set gets released with little excitement and a slue of complaints. (I REALLY wanted to be wrong and read praise about this set!) -The LP cover photos reproduction little to be desired. ( Color shots are either to dark and dont come close to original Colgems LPs. Black & white photos are to dark. Oddly, the back cover of The Birds, The Bees & The Monkees, Friday Music decided to go bright white except the photo pedals of the flower are sepia tone. A very odd decision! - No albums sealed - The audio reproduction is fair at best with inferior vinyl for brand new vinyl, multiple pops! played on a high grand turntable - No booklet, no liner notes. LPs in plain white sleeves. Best part of the collection? The empty box! Really sad when Friday Music could have knocked it out of the park with this release! (hopefully their last as far as Monkees collectors are concerned) Proper album cover reproductions much like The Beatles In Mono Box set. Reproductions of Colgems inner sleeve. At least closer attention to the pressed vinyl. All seem to be from digital source, not master tapes. Hey, think of the money you saved! ($150 plus shipping)
