The final Monkees legacy box set. And boy, did they save the best for last!” The commenter added, “You literally cannot go wrong with any track on PAC&JLTD.

The album quickly made it to the top spot on the Billboard charts, and it was The Monkees’ fourth album in 1967 to hit that top spot. Having four number 1 albums in one year was an accomplishment that proved difficult to match.The band’s first album, The Monkees, spent the end of 1966 and the first five weeks of 1967 in the top spot. More of the Monkees took over the Billboard top spot and remained there for 18 weeks. In June, Headquarters climbed to the top of the Billboard chart, and when Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones, Ltd. was released in December, it propelled The Monkees to the top spot and the record.This story was originally reported by Parade on Sep 21, 2025, where it first appeared in the News section.
