An elegy for Davy Jones: Carole King’s demo for ‘Porpoise Song’

In light of the unexpected passing of Monkee Davy Jones, here’s Carole King’s original demo for Head’s “Porpoise Song” (co-written by Gerry Goffin).

Sound quality is what it is, but no matter, this is still pretty amazing. Listen LOUD! Thank you Simon…
