35. I say "yes" but they should induct the songwriters too
Edited on Thu Dec-30-04 10:10 AM by KurtNYC
Hey hey We're the Monkees - Tommy Boyce & Bobby Hart
I'm a Believer - Neil Diamond
Mary Mary - Mike Nesmith (yes, a "Monkee")
She - Boyce & hart
When Love Comes knocking at Your Door - Neil Sedaka
Steppin Stone - Tommy Boyce
Last Train to clarksville - Tommy Boyce and Bobby Hart

Note however: Boyce shot himself to death on Nov. 23 (1994) at his Nashville home
...
In the mid-'70s, Boyce & Hart, who had originally been promised places in the band, finally got to be Monkees of a sort when they toured and recorded with Davy Jones and Mickey Dolenz as Jones, Dolenz, Boyce & Hart.
