Catalog, MBF Update

From: “Alicia Jones”

Hi there!

I recently received a copy of American Pie, a music catalog, in the
mail…and noticed that Mike (solo) and The Monkees were listed!

In Catalog #105, The Monkees are found on page 20 (third column, second
entry…to be exact). On this particular CD, there are 20 songs. Some of
the songs listed were: I’m a Believer, Last Train to Clarksville, Daydream
Believer, Little Bit Me Little Bit You, Valleri, and Pleasant Valley
Sunday. The item # is 442 72190, and the price is $16.99.

Also, Michael Nesmith’s CD is on page 21 (first column, first entry…to be
exact). There are 16 songs; some of which are: Joanne, Silver Moon,
Nevada Fighter, Beyond the Blue Horizon, and First National Flag. The item
# is 522 6295, and the price is $15.99.

On pages 66 through 72, you can also find The Monkees’ songs on CDs with
various artists in the 60’s “Decades” section.

Towards the very end of the catalog, there is also a listing of “45 RPM
Singles”. The Monkees’ singles are on page 95, and Mike’s single is on
page 96. Each RPM is worth $2.75.
