Monkeemania (40 Timeless Hits) is a Monkees compilation released in Australia in 1979. It contains 40 of the Monkees' songs, including hit singles, B-sides, album tracks and three previously unreleased tracks: "Love to Love," "Steam Engine" and a live version of "Circle Sky."
Due to the unavailability of the Monkees' master tapes in Australia at this time, "needledop" vinyl recordings of songs had to be used, resulting in various sound quality issues.[1]
