H ,
really sad to hear this morning Davy Jones from the monkees has passed away.

Grew up listening to Monkee tunes & watching their whacky tv shows.

The first real example of a musical act being formed specifically for use on a different venue (TV).

They were (the Monkeys) entertaining...not my favorites, but certainly deserving of their success.

This makes me sad. I used to like that show as a kid. Day Dream Believer is my favorite Monkeys tune. I'll play it tonight in his honor. R.I.P.

We've lost some real good talent this year. Claire Fisher, Eta James, Whitney Houston, and now Davey Jones. So sad.

They sang ... they faked the instruments ... for a while. They eventually learned to play live. Heck - they were a studio project from the word go, and they had the COOLEST car ever!
