| - More of the Monkees is the second studio album by The Monkees, first released on 9 January 1967 as COM-102 (mono) and COS-102 (stereo). The album was compiled and released under the direction of music supervisor Don Kirshner, apparently unbeknownst to the group, who were on tour. The album reached #1 on the Billboard 200 top albums list, replacing the group's first album, The Monkees, and remaining there for 18 weeks, the longest of any Monkees album. It features the group's second single, "I'm a Believer", and its B-side "(I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone".
