The Monkees "The Girl I Knew Somewhere" / "A Littl
The Monkees "The Girl I Knew Somewhere" / "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" [RCA Victor, 66-1004], 1967.

Swedish release. Notice that on the cover Michael Nesmith song "The Girl I Knew Somewhere" has been chosen as "a-side". This change was also done in Germany with similar cover, though the Swedish release has a different rear (second picture). As far as I know, this was one of two the Monkees singles where the record was made in Sweden.

This was the first released/recorded song containing instruments performed by the band members. Originally recorded with Nesmith on lead vocals, but a later version was recorded with Micky Dolenz replacing Nesmith.

The Stone Roses "Elephant Stone" / "The Hardest Thing In The World" [Silvertone, ORE 1], October 1988.

Nice b-side.

(Just noticed, for some reason, the back was not included with the upload . 😔 Original pressing with catalogue number (ORE 1) written in black. The reissue (1990) had the number in red.)
