...And then I saw her face....Now I’m a Believer, Without a trace....Of doubt in my mind....

I will never forget a huge audience of Monkee fans singing those lyrics along with Davy, Mickey and Peter before a Giants game at Candlestick Park many moons ago. It was so loud and everyone knew all the words. The whole place was singing along. It was great!

The funniest thing was watching the current ball players in the dugout looking up at the stands in complete bewilderment, like "who are these guys?"

Rest in peace Davy. You were a good one.

They put out some really great songs. I recall during the mid/late 60s when other groups were the rage with political/rebellious sound, and the group think at the time was they were a prefab, TV teeny bop group, not really cool.

But it didn't matter, as the tunes were excellent, and even the group think crowd silently enjoyed the music.

Several of their songs if done/produced today, would be major, big dollar hits.
