Description

This is a copy of a hard to find single by The Monkees: "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" b/w "She Hangs Out" (RCA 66-1003). Released in Canada in 1967.

Davy Jones takes the lead vocal on both tracks. It was slated to be Colgems 66-1003. The A-side eventually found its way on the next Monkees single (Colgems 66-1004). The B-side, "She Hangs Out," was never meant to be released, and didn't make its "official" appearance until several years ago on the Rhino compilation series, "Missing Links." The Monkees re-recorded a much funkier version of "She Hangs Out" and used it for their LP "Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones, Ltd." 

In 1967, the Monkees made a deal with Don Kirshner that allowed them to have control of 50% of their records—meaning that they were allowed to choose one side, and Don the other. While the Monkees were gearing up to become a real rock 'n' roll band, recording (among other things) what they thought was to be their next single ("The Girl That I Knew Somewhere"), Don Kirshner coaxed Davy into the studio to cut the two sides he had promised for Jeff Barry and Neil Diamond. He quickly dispatched the "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" b/w "She Hangs Out" promo under the self-serving name "My Favorite Monkee: Davy Jones Sings" (alluding to his privileging of Davy as the only bankable talent in the band), violating the agreement he had made with Screen Gems and ticking off the Monkees to boot. A few stocks copies on the RCA label (who licensed the Colgems released) were issued in Canada as well, and this is one of them.

This is a gorgeous copy. I have not seen one in this condition in a long while, if ever. Easily EX++ to NM. Vinyl has super high gloss. Just a few very, very small, light scuffs on A side. Labels have almost no wear whatsoever. No writing, stickers, or tears. Comes in original factory sleeve.

Thanks for looking, and please check out my other items for more rare and beautiful 45s.
