Rest in Peace Bobby Hart
Bobby Hart of the legendary Boyce and Hart has passed away. They wrote many of the Monkees major hits as well as a number of hits for other artists. It seems like so many of the musicians, singers, actors, and comedians who lifted my spirits on hard days, and brought me pure joy, are gone. It's like so many lights are going out and every time one does the darkness gets harder to dispel. I just haven't discovered anyone new other than Colin O'Donoghue ( who hasn't done any new filming in the U.S., and can't say I blame him), who keeps me so entertained that it distracts me from thinking too much about the negative side of the world like others have in the past.
At least I still have their music and the memories, and am glad Mickey Dolenz is still with us. I am including a tune Boyce and Heart performed with Micky and Davy Jones in their short spanned group Dolenz, Jones, Boyce, and Hart. It's appropriately named, "I Remember the Feeling. " Thank you for the music and smiles Bobby!⁷
