My mom and I watched them at the state fair some years ago. Mom always talked about what a crush she had on Davy (what girl didn't!). She still has their old records. Like those big round black discs. And a turntable to play them on. She'll probably do that today. LOL.

RIP Davey. I thought The Monkees were pretty cool when I was 11. Right about that time I rode my banana seat bike to the mall and wandered into National Record Mart with my lawn mowing money and bought two 45's, Foreigner and Ted Nugent. After that I never listened to The Monkees again.

Strange bedfellows~

Patients and doctors often use the phrase "heart attack" in different ways,which is complicated by the fact that an event that a physician in an emergency room might call a heart attack based on limited information may turn out later to be nothing of the sort. To most physicians, the phrase "heart attack" means specifically that the patient has experienced a "myocardial infarction," or an area of the heart muscle that has died as a result of blockages in the arteries of the heart. "Angina" is a less severe problem in which the patient experiences chest discomfort as a result of problems with the heart, but may not have experienced death of any heart muscle. A completely different event, best referred to as "sudden cardiac arrest" or "sudden cardiac death" is a primarily electrical problem in which the heart goes into a life threatening rhythm, resulting in the patient passing out and possibly dying if not resuscitated immediately. Myocardial infarction is a common cause of cardiac arrest, but there are many other possible causes as well.

Unfortunately, in an attempt to avoid medical jargon, doctors and nurses sometimes create confusion, and patients often describe themselves as having had a "heart attack" when they have had any of these different problems,which can make it difficult to know how best to treat them. Finally, although the phrase "massive heart attack" is often used, there is no specific way in which that differs from a "heart attack" except in the amount of heart muscle that has died.

The Monkees singer Davy Jones dead at 66
Published February 29, 2012 | FoxNews.com

Davy Jones, the lead singer of the pop group The Monkees, died Wednesday at the age of 66, his publicist confirmed to Fox News.

"The only thing we can do is confirm that he has died of a heart attack at Indiantown, Florida this morning," his rep Helen Kensick told Fox News. "We will have more later.

The local medical examiner released a statement Wednesday confirming that they had been notified of the singer's death.

"The District 19 Medical Examiner's office has been notified of the death of Mr. Davy Jones," spokeswoman Rebecca Shortridge said. "We are currently evaluating whether or not the medical examiner's office will take jurisdiction."

Jones, who last performed Feb. 19 in Oklahoma, formed the Monkees in 1966 with Micky Dolenz, Michael Nesmith and Peter Tork.

Was before your time but back then a lot of guys did wear their hair that long. :-)

At one Holiday meal my dad made the comment that he never thought he'd see the day that three of his boys had hair longer than his 2 daughters & 2 of his boys have a pierced ear & neither daughter do. :panic:

I have the DVD of the original Ed Sullivan show with The Beatles first appearance; on that show, Davy Jones performed and sang with the production of "Oliver".  He definitely had a great voice even at that young age.

And then 2 short years later he gets the gig with The Monkeees, a U.S. version of the Beatles so to speak.

RIP Mr. Jones.
