Missing Links is a 1988 compilation album by The Monkees. While "Apples, Peaches, Bananas And Pears" was featured in their 1960s television series, none of the tracks had ever been issued commercially. "All Of Your Toys", written by Bill Martin, was the first recording to feature all four Monkees actually playing on the track, and was intended by the band to become their third single. (Neil Diamond's "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You" was chosen instead.) Michael Nesmith re-recorded "Nine Times Blue" for his Magnetic South album.
