While "Apples, Peaches, Bananas and Pears" and "If You Have the Time" had both been featured in the reruns of their 1960s television series,[2] none of the tracks had ever been issued commercially. "All of Your Toys", written by Bill Martin, was the first Monkees recording to feature all four members performing on the track, and was initially intended to become their third single. A publishing issue prevented the song from being released, with Neil Diamond's "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" chosen instead.

Michael Nesmith later re-recorded "Nine Times Blue" for his Magnetic South album and "Carlisle Wheeling" (as "Conversations") for his Loose Salute album.

The bulk of the material on this album comes from The Birds, The Bees and The Monkees sessions, which were self-produced.

The original 1987 vinyl and cassette releases in the U.S. did not contain tracks 7, 8, 15 and 16. The compact disc was released in the U.S. and U.K. in December 1988. A vinyl version was released in 2021 from Friday Music for Record Store Day, with no tracks omitted.
