Jeff Barry produced several tracks for
The Monkees, including "I'm a Believer" and "A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You." He also wrote a few songs for the group,
including "She Hangs Out" (video below).
Davy Jones
of The Monkees left us much too soon at the age of 66.

"All of the Ronettes are, of course, close
to my heart, having recorded one of my favorite songs. Their sound was special, and Estelle was a big part of it all. She
will be missed."
