Dave Madden  -- who played "The Partridge Family's" aggravated band manager on the 1970s TV show -- has died after a long illness at age 82 ... TMZ has learned.

Madden played Reuben Kincaid on the show ... who was often bedeviled by the antics of the Partridge kids, particularly Danny, played by Danny Bonaduce.

Dave's former agent tells TMZ ... he died of congestive heart and kidney failure early this morning.

I guess it does come in three’s. Just saw in the Daily Mail that the character actor who played the sheep hearder in the Vicar of Dibley died yesterday.

No. Jack. Smoked while sleeping. Not a good combo.
