Goodbye Davy...
Yesterday I was saddened to learn that Davy Jones of the Monkees had died. I have many happy memories of sitting down in the afternoon to watch the show with my mom (reruns by that time because the Monkees were born shortly after I was in 1966!) and then years later watching the Monkee Marathons on MTV with my family. I confess that Peter Tork was my first love--but who didn't like Davy? Oh how I loved their goofy, silliness!! Such good memories and a big influence on my life. I guess that you could say they were the first band I really liked--and still do!! They are probably the reason that music is such a passion in my life.

I loved Davy - do you know how he died? sandie
Heart attack. :-( So sad!
He made "Daydream Believers" of us all. I got teary-eyed when I heard yesterday. I commented on f/b that the artist was gone, but the art lives on - and posted a video - and told everyone to turn it up and sing along ;)
I too sat many hours watching them - and can sing along with all their songs with a big sappy smile on my face :>
Oh he and David Cassidy were the men of my young dreams! And just think how poor Marcia Brady must be feeling!
