Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones Box

The Monkees' "Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones Ltd" super deluxe edition collects more than 100 tracks across 4 CDs, including the original mono and stereo mixes of the album, plus newly created stereo mixes and alternate mono mixes. 2 additional discs trace the album’s creative arc with demos, outtakes, and backing tracks sourced from the original session reels, alongside several television mixes appearing on physical media for the very 1st time.

The set was produced by Andrew Sandoval, who has led Rhino’s Monkees reissues for over 35 years. His new liner notes provide historical context, session insights, and details about the album’s creation and legacy. Also included is a 32 page booklet packed with rare photos and ephemera from the era.

This super deluxe edition unearths an expansive trove of unreleased session recordings, including the backing track and TV mix for the group’s cover of Harry Nilsson’s “Cuddly Toy”. Alternate versions of “The Door Into Summer”, and the holiday favorite “Riu Chiu” also appear, along with instrumental backing tracks for songs like “Words”, “Pleasant Valley Sunday” and “Daily Nightly”.

A 1967 acoustic demo of “A Man Without A Dream”, later recorded for 1969’s "Instant Replay" makes its debut here, along with alternate mixes of “Star Collector” and “She Hangs Out”. The set also compiles several TV specific mixes prepared for the group’s popular television show, with many appearing on physical media for the first time, including one for “Daydream Believer”.

A bonus 7" single rounds out the collection with previously unreleased alternate mono mixes of “Love Is Only Sleeping” and “Goin’ Down”.
