The Monkees' 1995 Greatest Hits album was the third so titled to date. It was issued when Rhino Records took over the Monkees' catalog, and was intended to replace the existing Arista compilations. It has since been superseded by The Monkees Anthology and The Best of the Monkees.

- "Valleri" does not fade out but has the "cold ending" as first released on Then & Now... The Best of The Monkees in 1986.
