"The Monkees' second album was rushed out in early 1967 in wake of the success of their TV series and their chart singles. The group had been frustrated by not being allowed to play on the first album, and they had expected that the second album would be different with the members playing a bigger..." [+] Reply
"Shortlisted for R&B album of the year at the 1999 Grammys. The winner was The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill by Lauryn Hill" Reply

"It's okay... some of the songs sound very similar. Highlights for me are Typhoons and Boilermaker.
