For those of us old enough to remember-Davy Jones of 'The Monkees' has died.

I know I saw that today. Sad. He was a part of the MBC Charity Event in 2009 in Ct. I was there and he did a great job. Was fun watching him do his hits and then jam out on stage with Michael Bolton's band..I also remember him on The Brady Bunch.. We all laughed that weekend about that..
Another one gone too soon. RIP Davey Jones!

Thanks for starting this thread Joanne and it is indeed sad to hear of Davy's untimely death and once again makes me very aware of how mortal I am and I am glad I don't know what is round the corner. Have brought over from FB a few words that Mike Naismith has posted on hearing of Davy's death that I thought appropriate to share.....
The Monkees were so much a part of my childhood. My parents bought me a record player one birhday, supposedly a "portable" because you could screw the turntable down, and the case had a handle! My first LPs were The Monkees, and More of The Monkees, one each from my sisters - I still have them. "I Wanna Be Free" was Davy's incredible solo and I can hear that haunting melody now, his voice was so distinctive.
So, thank you, Davy, for sharing your talent, for all the magic and the laughter. You were a gem, and you will be sorely missed.
