BREAKING NEWS!! Davy Jones Has Died!

Some sad news just coming in this afternoon. Davy Jones, lead singer of the 1960's band The Monkees has died of a heart attack at age 66. The Monkees were formed in 1966 as the basis for a TV show of the same name that was broadcast on NBC from 1966-1968. The theme song for the show became one of their most well known hits including "I'm A Believer" and "Daydream Believer", both of which went to #1 on the Hot 100 chart. They were seen as a manufactured alternative to The Beatles, but their music was a relaxing and escapist departure from the late 60's hippie and Vietnam War era that consumed much of the nation around that time.
