I was a little young to be a groupy, but I always enjoyed watching the Monkees when I was a kid and there was a purity to the show. If they made a show like that now, there would be lots of sex and nastiness. It was clean and wholesome and Davey Jones helped to provide that image. He was that non-threatening, aw shucks, sweet musician that all the girls loved. The boy you could bring home to meet Mom. <br /><br />They've been doing a lot of stuff on him in our local paper, in particular as the paper's staff had gotten to know him over the years. He had been concerned about his health and had a stress test in May. He kept saying something wasn't right... and obviously he was correct and medicine was not... but a lot of good that does him, eh? Not like having on his tombstone, "I told them I didn't feel well..." helps. <br /><br />I'm sad for his family. I have a feeling he was a fun person.Bouhttp://boudicca.mu.nunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890416885446831282.post-27485226518477277242012-03-01T12:15:57.921-05:002012-03-01T12:15:57.921-05:00And he wasn't that much older than we are, Ell...And he wasn't that much older than we are, Ellison...sort of makes you sit down and think, doesn't it?BobGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405172215849046373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1890416885446831282.post-51468756503913932312012-02-29T16:28:44.977-05:002012-02-29T16:28:44.977-05:00I liked Davy....even met him once as a young girl....I liked Davy....even met him once as a young girl....<br />This news makes me sad, Elisson.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
