More quotes by Peter Tork
Pop music, disco music, and heavy metal music is about shutting out the tensions of life, putting it away.
Peter Tork
There hasn't been one show that we did, that I didn't enjoy to some extent.
Peter Tork
Elvis deserves a lot of credit for bringing the blues to middle America, not the Vegas stuff. The early stuff, The Sun records, and the first few RCA records. He was wonderful, he had the power, the drive, and he was so dedicated to his music.
Peter Tork
Ringo is one of the world's true humans. The only one out those four guys, who did not have an agenda. Ringo was just into the music.
Peter Tork
The most significant thing about the Monkees as a pop phenomenon is that we were the only TV show about young adults that did not feature a wiser, older person.
Peter Tork
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.

I am more of an old black and white movies fan.

The universe is permeated with the odor of turpentine!

Hitting a baseball well, as in cricket, is a very rare skill. One of most difficult things to do in the world to do, hitting a ball coming at you at ninety miles an hour with a round bat. Wonderful to watch.

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.

You should be a hero to yourself. And if you're not... check it out.

I am a still friend with Dave Crosby, he's a weird duck but I like him a lot.
Peter Tork
The Monkees was a straight sitcom, we used the same plots that were on the other situation comedies at the time. So the music wasn't threatening, we weren't threatening.
Peter Tork
It was so much fun to do, play the blues and then play a Monkees set on the same night.
Peter Tork
I get to play a scorching lead guitar, and there's not much that's more fun than that.
Peter Tork
Shoe Suede Blues opened for the Monkees in the 1997 reunion tour for two shows. I went out in disguise when I played with Shoe Suede Blues.
