Peter Tork Quotations

It was so much fun to do, play the blues and then play a Monkees set on the same night.

The four of us couldn't have made a record with the time left over when we were shooting the show. We were on stage from 7.30 in the morning 'til 7 at night. Later on, when there was a break from filming, and we were sick of doing it the old way.

Michael Sunday and I are the original members of the band. We first did it just for charities and benefit concerts. It was very ad-hoc, and before we knew it, we were really a band. We went through several drummers and guitarists before we were happy with the line up.

Shoe Suede Blues is ten years old this year. The Band consists of four members.

Oh, the most fun thing I've ever been asked to autograph was breasts.

Original Monkees' songs were produced very thinly, on purpose.

What I remember most are some of the guys in the background - who they were and what kind of times we had during those days on the set. I remember staying at Mikes house in Hollywood when we first started filming the series. It was the upper story of a two-story building on a little hillside. Mikes wife, Phyllis, was wonderful. Mike and I laughed a lot and played music together. I remember that time very fondly.

Put you energy into music. If it fails you, you can become an accountant or a dentist. And then if you become a dentist or an accountant, it's too late to become a musician afterwards.

No, in 1968 I still wanted to be a Pop Star, and be about the music. Now, I want to be just about the music.

I like to listen the blues and some classical.
