8 Monkees for $ 90
A rare records auction held in Auckland on April Ist and organised by the Rock’n'Roll Records shop threw up a few surprises. The principal interest among the 200 people who attended seemed to be in British music of the mid and late 60’s but albums by Captain Beefheart, Nico, The Stooges, Alice Cooper and the Beachßoys fetched highprices. Some albums by these artists sold for around S2O but the main surprise was the sale of a complete set of eight Monkees records (plus a solo outing by Davy Jones) for S9O. Equally, many albums sold very cheaply. The success of the venture ensured that another will probably be held in another 6 months when more sought after items have been collected together.
