The Monkees debut with a splash, literally. This limited splatter vinyl pressing of The Monkees captures the 1966 album that launched one of pop music's most beloved acts straight to the top of the charts.
Released October 10, 1966 on Colgems Records, The Monkees debuted at #1 on the Billboard 200 and stayed there for 13 weeks, the first of four consecutive chart-topping albums for the group. It also topped the UK charts in 1967 and has since been certified quintuple platinum by the RIAA. Lead single "Last Train to Clarksville" hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 just before the album dropped, cementing the Monkees as an overnight phenomenon.
This splatter pressing gives a familiar classic a bold new look, and encapsulation means the colors, the sleeve, and the vinyl itself stay exactly as they left the press, sealed from the moment of production to the moment it reaches you.
