Sad, sad day for fans of The Monkees.
I grew up watching the show and wanted to marry Davy when I was a kid (I had no clue how old the show was at the time or that he was over 30 years older than me, lol). And oddly enough, I was thinking about him yesterday because I was talking about an old stuffed crust Pizza Hut commercial: http://youtu.be/gsIufle2_zA
Fans younger than me might remember him best from his cameo in The Brady Bunch Movie.

Back in 1967 when The Monkees were all the rage and they started touring to prove they could all play their own instruments, I had the pleasure of emceeing a concert at Earl Warren Showgrounds in Santa Barbara, California that headlined The Monkees.
Mickey, Mike, Peter and Davy were all gentlemen, and they could play their instruments rather well.
I am pleased to have this memory to remember Davy Jones by.
R.I.P.: Davy Jones

You know... I haven't heard much of their stuff but I've always thought this song was incredible:carolinakid wrote:The Monkees' music is underrated, imo.

Not that anyone is/would be surprised. But, this is A+ music. Not just pop either, real rock music. Not nearly as sweet as a lot of bands and acts who have reputations for being factory assembled. This song points to real musicianship.
