The late night singing sessions at Idyllwild were sensational, I don't remember everything we sang but I remember busting out in those Monkees songs. I figured you'd chime in as you're as big a Monkees fan as me. I'm having a little Monkees music festival here at work - I've got The Monkees, More of The Monkees, Headquarters, and Pisces, Aquarius, Capricorn & Jones all on CD, the reissues are really worthwhile because of all the bonus tracks. Thanks to The Monkees (who recorded his "Cuddly Toy"), Harry Nilsson was able to quit his day job and focus on his music. So, thank you Monkees! Bob NP: The Monkees, "Nine Times Blue" (demo) From: "kbhla" To: , Date: 02/29/2012 03:28 PM Subject: RE: Davy Jones of the Monkees passes NJC Aw gee, I'm sorry to hear this sad news. Such a good guy. The group was still doing reunion tours as of last year. I saw them on their first 20 year reunion tour in San Diego in 1986. Everyone there, no matter their ages, were all jumping and singing and acting like kids throughout the show. Bob, do you recall some of us sang a few Monkees songs late one night at the Idyllwild Jonifest? I have the recordings on my iTunes somewhere ;-) I think that was a first for a Jonifest and very fun. I remember a thread here long ago where it came out that many of us really loved their music. Though he is more well known for photographing many icons of the 60s, Henry Diltz was the premier photographer of The Monkees from inception to now. He is very close friends with them and I think he also played on a few of their recordings. RIP Davey.
