    Default Davy Jones (The Monkees) died

    He had a heart attack. 66 yrs old. I remember watching them, silly as they were, back then it wasn't as silly.

    They brought rock and roll to our living rooms. Also, the sold more albums then the Beatles and Stones combined!

    Brings back so many memories of high school, waiting with my best friend for the show to come on, sighing over how cute he was, how funny they were, singing along with all their songs. I will say a little prayer for him tonight and remember all the joy.

    I heard the news on the way home from work today. I felt so sad. My best friend had their album and we'd sit in her room in the late 60's and dream of someday marrying Davy Jones LOL. It was such a wonderful time in my life. He certainly left this earth too soon.

    I remember watching the Monkees when I was in Jr. High! I loved to listen to them sing. My cousin and I had all their albums...on vinyl records....that tells my age doesn't it! The Monkees were one of the good ones...no drugs....no scandals...just good clean fun. RIP Davy!

    They had the best songs to sing along with... I still can't resist joining in when ever I hear one of their tunes.
