Davy Jones
I have never done an individual posting on any passing of a celebrity before, but the news broke this morning that Davy Jones, singer and actor from the 1960’s pop group The Monkees has passed away; and I needed to make a special note of the news.
Davy and The Monkees were introduced to me back in the early 1970’s when their TV show would air during Saturday morning programming, becoming a very important part of my life.
In the 1980’s MTV reaired their show in conjunction with the band’s anniversary tours, which brought a whole new generation of fans to their music. And, I was there for the reunion tours and appearances.
I have remained a long-life fan of the group and am deeply heartbroken by his passing. Rest in Peace Davy Jones.
Deepest condolences are extended to Davy’s family, friends and his worldwide fans.
ADDED:
Fellow Monkee Micky Dolenz was on the Today Show today (March 1) to talk about Davy and it was a nice little tribute to him. Here is the video for those who want to see it.
