What a lovely thing to say and so true :-)

But you must realize that there are many of us who only survived our abusive childhoods because David was there every Monday night at 7:30. That sort of connection will remain till my dying day. Had it not been for him I doubt I'd see today. 1 year later, RIP our sweet David. You'll be remembered forever.

As long as we can go back and observe any great artist who has passed on, they'll never be truly dead. Whether there's an afterlife or not, at least with being creative gives you that opportunity to be apart of eternity in the sense that you've left behind something truly great.

Came across this because I am a True Monkees Fan!!! Davy is gorgeous and I was 13 years old when they came on TV. I will be 68 in 19 days and still love them. I am a big kid at heart and my kids get the biggest kick out of me dancing to their tunes. RIP Davy and Peter and thank you for my childhood memories!!!

What a cutie!Davy was a pure joy to watch and listen to.😊Count me among the "girls" who crushed on him;I'm 53 now,but I still think he was adorable.

Just seeing this for the first time and I love it! What an adorable smile when he finishes singing, "I want to be free"!

Beautiful tribute for a beautiful man. It doesn't seem possible he has been gone 2 years now. He is not forgotten ever and he will live on forever. I grew up with him at age 13 years old and watched every show when they came on in 1966. I was in so much love with him. I am 61 now and still love him and the other boys, Mike, Micky and Peter. I am so proud of the rest of the guys for keeping Davy's spirit alive, his songs and their dedication for their brother, friend and band mate. They miss him just as much as the rest of us. Thank you for posting this and seeing Davy performing makes me sad and teary eye that is for sure because this is my childhood memories and I will always cherish them.

*sigh* R.I.P. Davy. You are loved and you will be missed.

Davy wasn't even my favorite Monkee(Micky was), but I couldn't help but get a little choked up watching this. R.I.P. Davy. We will always miss you and remember you. Thanks for bringing so much joy into our lives.

Amazing showman and performer.

This was taped at Magic Mountain in Los Angeles. It was part of a syndicated TV special called "Scapbook of the 60's. I was at the concert. Davy did the three Monkees songs twice, then did songs with his back up band, "Toast".

R.I.P. Davy 2/29/12Saw Davy with The Monkees - 2 times in concert.

Not when you know them personally, You know you will never see or talk with them on this earth again. All you have is the memories of happier times spent with that person, this you will cherish forever but it's not the same. It hurts to look at these videos of David moving around singing knowing he gone. I miss my friend David Jones dearly and yes it's very painful to see this. I spoked with David 2 days before he died. I told him I was looking forward to seeing him again he died 2 days later.

Somehow I don’t think he would want you to be sad seeing this. He brought a lot of joy to a lot of people and not just through his music. He was meant to be an entertainer but more than that I think he was a genuinely good person. Look at how his 4 children turned out and how they adored him. So many of us would have liked to have a friendship with him. Be grateful that you did.

Davy was the Paul McCartney of the group. He represented The British Invasion for the group.

Rap started in the 70s and evolved as people looked for ways to express themselves. It's not my thing, but I don't begrudge it. Worse now are the horrible tuneless songs where people can't seem to find the note they want, and fix it all anyway with auto tune because they can't sing. But yes, Davy captured some classics.

How lucky is Heaven since Davy the Angel arrived there.

Cheers for this. Davy, Peter and Mike rest in peace.

Great music.

Thanks so much for posting!! Awesome!!

Davy, was love and.sunshine, a wonderful friend to me, a amazing man.I just love him so much.

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍across the board!!!!

I seen the monkee's in concert in 1987. 9 years later. davy waved to me from the tour bus. he was sitting in the driver's seat. he should have came out. I would have loved a hug from him then. I did not get my hug until 25 years later. jan28th 2012.

I miss him more than words can say

What an amazing performance,! He really was at the top of his game, relaxed with this band and they with him.

te amo para todo o sempre. Meu super star. David jones . Amor eterno!!!💝💝💝💝💝💝🐵😍😍😍💝🐵

❤Thank you for these! These vintage shows are awesome,especially on a big t.v. I feel like I'm sitting right there,or like its playing Live

Muito feliz por ver esse show

His guitarist is Dennis Larden who you may remember from Every Mother's Son and their hit "Come on Down to My Boat"...

I am so sad. Can't stop crying...

Oh wow, gorgeous Davy! 🤩

Rock on in Heaven, Davy.

I miss Davy so much after 8 years ge passed away😔

Me too. Even now, 1 year later, I still struggle.

Yes, I remember this too, and you are absolutely correct! It was on Sept. 30.1979.

Amazing talent. He’s so missed.

Era un ser maravilloso , cercano y humilde. Lo ame desde que lo vi en televisión siendo una niña. Su recuerdo perdurará por siempre con su hermosa sonrisa.

Great memories, nostalgic and emotional

Just another fact. The announcer & producer of this special was Stu Rosen. He was the star of a popular 70's children's show called "Dusty's treehouse". I remember people yelling out to him at the taping. If you know the show, Stu is the man announcing Davy.

He was funny sang beautiful and Loved hi m forever since I was 11 in 1967

Still has his accent here 💕 In fact, never think I've heard it so strong! X

+Atsuko Katsuodori Yes!! He was very emotional here!! And I think I know why. It was Tommy Boyce's birthday the day before this was filmed (Sept. 29), and he and Tommy were very good friends!! Tommy Boyce, along with Bobby Hart, wrote "I Wanna Be Free"!! I guarantee you, he was thinking about Tommy, who is no longer with us now, while he was singing this...! And probably Linda too!

He had a brain anurism, which made him rather dependent on others - and he was probably also suffering depression because of it. He didn't want to be a burden to anyone. So he took his own life with a gun.

Maybe Tommy Boyce in Sept 1979 was experiencing a lot of difficulty. According to Wikipedia, in 1979 Boyce was touring in his own band named The Tommy Band, and it was a flop. In fact, the band even went to the UK, but no one came to the concerts, except in Middlesbrough where only one person showed up. Pretty sad.

OMG this video was great. Classic 70's right on down to the chick smoking and "Queen" like audience members. LMAO. Loved the "I wanna be free" performance.

Of course. But at the same time, those who have never known the man personally, but have in some deep way been moved by the music of somebody passed on, this is the best we're ever gonna get. I meant no disrespect for grieving friends. I was speaking from the point of view of a casual fan and somebody who has only recently discovered their music due to being born in the wrong decade.

I miss seeing Mickey with Davy sharing vocals.

No no no, only young Davy have to sing this song

This is not the original Monkees...It is Davy Jones though...

Can see here who the key member of Monkees was.

Last Song Gets cut

Cool! Davy Jones changed the lyrics (0:34) by singing this: ". . . O I could hide 'neath the wings of the bluebird as IT sings . . ." In the other songs, the bluebird is referred to as a "she." In the world of biology, the male birds are the ones doing the singing in order to attract the female birds' attention. The female bird chooses its mate by judging how well the male bird sings. Kinda sad for those other birds who aren't good singers. :/

Thanks so much for cutting ✂️ the video off!! Title should say 3 1/2 songs. Really?...

i wish i knew who you were you knew him personally.

so were the members of Toast all former members of RICK NELSON's Stone Canyon Band? the guitarist sure looks like Dennis Larden and bassist Jay DeWitt White...anyone know?
