 After an unsuccessful movie, "Head", from the previous winter, RCA Records attempted to revive interest in the Monkees which was waning, but to no avail.The band was now down to a trio after the departure of Peter Tork, and "The Monkees Greatest Hits" climbed to number 89 on the "Billboard" album charts before disappearing.It is also the only original Monkees album not to feature any photographs of the group either on the front or back covers.
