[Fredslist] RIP Davy Jones - Poco

[Corey Bearak]

Since one of my Gotham mutual mentor partners, Alan Schwartz (Rick Fromewick is the other), raised the issue, a connection or two between The Monkees and Poco my favorite band.

1-both belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

2-because Peter Tork's friend Stephen Stills was not selected for the show - the producers selected Mike Nesmith, Stills went on to form Buffalo Springfield with Richie Furay and Neil Young (which is in the Rock Hall).  From the Springfield's ashes sprang forth Crosby, Stills & Nash, Poco, and Neil Young who sometimes joins with CSN.  For those who do not know Poco created the sound that made billions for the Eagles (both of its bass players were respectively first in Poco), and it's manager, Irving Azoff who also runs LiveNation.

Saw the Monkees reunion first at the Beacon (June 16, 2011) and later in the summer at Coney Island (July 21, 2011).  Both were great.

These are YouTubes I had previously happened on:

I was at the Jimi Hendrix opener for the Monkees - my first ever concert.

I also muse what would have happened if Stephen Stills got selected instead of Tork or Nesmith?  No Buffalo Springfield? No CSNY" No Poco.  No Eagles......
