What is not to love about Peter Tork. So sad when we lost him two years ago . My all time favorite Monkee and first crush. Missing you dearly. Hope to see you in heaven.
Peter, along with the rest of The Monkees, were such a huge part of my adolescence, and they continue to be a big part of my life. I feel awful knowing that he's gone, but I'm forever thankful at the mark he's left on me.
Donna Green I understand your take, perhaps Peter removed himself from the bright lights post Monkees and I didn't know much of him..As a child enjoying the music of the Monkees (and now) I thought he was somehow mute, thats entertainment, painting ppl the colours it needs.
I’ve never thought a sold-body electric guitar works as a solo (unaccompanied) instrument or as an instrument to accompany a solo singer, and this performance does not tempt me to change my mind. The best song here, by far, is “Till Then”. Tork’s chord voicings on it are more sophisticated than on a typical Monkee’s-like pop song, but, unfortunately, he seems fairly oblivious to voice leading. His voice is not as raucous on any of these songs as I seem to remember it from the Monkees, but I wouldn’t say that he’s really singing either. I can’t tell if “Dress Sexy for Me” is supposed to be a parody of sexism or just deliberately obnoxious, but either way, I find it grating. Tork’s various pleasantries would be perfectly tolerable if he didn’t consider them full-fledged jokes and expect-then demand-actual laughter.
Yes He can. I have heard many recorded sets as well as He is able to play all kinds of instruments! He was cast that way from the beginning. It's sad that too many think like you😔
