I just love how Davy plays his tambourine. I usually think what a waste of space a tambourine is but not when its Davy doing his thing. Adorable and talented man. Just love him RIP dear man x
My wife is a professional percussionist and educator. One of her former students is a well known professional percussionist who has toured internationally with many high profile rock/pop bands and solo artists. He told us a few years ago that is not uncommon for well known singers “playing” tambourines on stage with the jingles taped so the instrument is totally silent.
All 3 of them are terrific dancers...love when they move! Davy looks so handsome here ! Peter has an adorable dimple and love his long hair and amazing moves! He rocks! Love Mickey's performance!!
I was there when the four of them got their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, they were only about 15 feet away from me, I saw them as four "ice cream sodas".
I have seen video of Mr. Tork doing his music in the early 80's before the Monkee's reunion and how he does not get the full credit he deserved is beyond me. I know he gets some but it seems like yea, MICKY!!! MICHAEL!!! DAVY!!!! and oh yea... Peter.... Just look at this video and he is able to more or less keep up with Micky in the humor department. I can't remember if it was Mike or Micky who commented something like, Nothing fake about our boy Peter! Just the best. I know Micky does everything possible to give him the credit by saying how talented Peter was and plays like a ton of instruments and the instrument had not been invented he didn't know how to play
In the early 90's,I meant Davy before a Monkees concert here in Philly..He was sunbathing on top of the concrete wall along the music center.He signed my program and a record cover.Then asked me if I needed anything else.WHO DOES THAT?.He was soo kind..So I said my thank you's.But was so excited that I told some other people and a small crowd formed around him...So Davy,if ur reading this somehow..Sorry I ruined ur sunbathing, mate..:)
I know, right? His dancing and improv comedy here are wonderful. As a kid I probably thought Davy Jones was the hottest, but as an adult Tork's charm wins me over in every clip.
I think you just might be right. We just saw him live at a free concert last weekend in South Park (Allegheny County, PA) not far from Pittsburgh. He was incredible. The man will be 80 in March and still sounds exactly like he always has. He's as strong of an entertainer as he always was. Just an incredible talent.
Shannon Berryhill - If you were born in 1955, like me, and going to school thru 1960 - 69 you must wear a dress then, it was MANDATORY ; it wasn't until about 1970, I was in 10th grade then, they finally said dresses were optional.
I'm seeing all these interviews with the Monkees that I missed in past years; guess I was busy with school and work but I wish I had caught them at the time they aired. They are looking & sounding wonderful here. I would have been so happy to have seen these appearances back in the day.
I moved Peter Torkelson from a nice beautiful house in Beverly Hills to a nicer and larger beautiful house in Beverly Hills. The garage had a stairway that led to a bridge which went across the driveway then down some stairs and into the plush living room. Very nice guy. Good tipper too!
It is 2021 Mike Nesmith has passed away. Micky is the last living member of the group now. We still have these videos and the Monkees music. So in an way they live forever.
I’m Not Your Stepping Stone is a Punk Classic! The Sex Pistols even covered it! RIP Peter and Davy Maybe they’re Reunited in Heaven now and joking with each other!
When I saw them on stage, it was Davy who was bringing up the New Monkees, he said they wish them luck but "they have to find their own audience ". Yes, at least several in the audience were booing by then, and Micky saying, "Aw, be nice."
@@daveyhouston Glad to hear there is a fellow Boomer here. I myself was about 29 but that is because I was born a bit late in the year, September. So I became 30 that year.
I would have loved to hang out with Peter for a day, I think he would have been a lot of fun - but I think I could have learned some life lessons from him,also.
I took my best friend and his wife to see The Monkees in San Diego not very long after Davey Jones had passed away. They were sensational! My best friend took me off to the side after the concert and said, " You know I always thought of The Monkees as some kind of joke. But I was surprised to find out that they really have a lot of quality music."
Friday, March 6, 2020--9:41 am CST I watch all these interviews with the Monkees, I can't help but feel a little sad, because Davy Jones (12/30/1945 to 2/29/2012) and Peter Tork (2/13/1942 to 2/21/2019) are no longer with us.
His show was a rightwing freak show. He makes $50 million a year working 2 hours a week but he attacks people who work 80-100 hours a week picking crops. Sajac is a racist Trumpster.
Rest in peace. Davy Jones, Peter Tork and Mike Nesmith. I emailed Micky Dolenz in December and told him that I really enjoyed getting to see him and Mike Nesmith at the Texas Trust CU theater in October. Also, last week Sunday on METV 55.1 they ran a lot of episodes of the Monkees tv show and I really enjoyed getting to see those.
Been a fan since I was 6 years old, I'm 44 now. Watching reruns of The Monkees TV show on Nick at Nite. And my Mom had all their albums. It's awesome that Mickey was one of the original Hollywood Vampires. ♥️♥️
Man I just stumbled across this amazing piece of footage I was eight years old maybe nine when the monkeys first came on TV and I wanted to be a drummer like Mickey played drums for a few years but when I saw Jimi Hendrix open for the monkeys in like 69 at an amusement park in Jupiter Florida I was like spellbound from this guy playing a guitar left-handed sorry I love you monkeys and always will but Jimmy stole my heart that day
I saw them in 96' my girlfriend loved Peter I liked Davy growing up. I have to say Peter was a doll in person. The Turtles were also playing great concert. It's hard to believe Davy Mike and Peter are gone and Micky is still touring. I was starting Jr High when the Monkees show started seems like yesterday
I give The Monkees tremendous credit for defending the New Monkees when the crowds stared to boo/jeer the mention of their name especially as we know from Dino that they *were* annoyed/pissed off about it.
Given the strife and stigma the original 60s show had, it was really daring to try NM... that NM show was not always easy to watch as the mid-80s were replete with bringing back long-gone shows and the revivals/reboots almost never worked (or had much charm) , but the guys they hired could easily put a song together as well and are truly underrated. the music was undeniably great and the hired musicians definitely deserved defending. I should check out the NM show and see if the show holds up. I heard a couple of their songs a few years ago and it was still good stuff
Times flies. Micky is the last one, as of now, in March 2023. I'm sure they all had a blast while all 3 or 4 were alive for as long as they could reunite many times on stage. Enjoy every second of your time on earth & mortality. After college & work, I could only see my dad maybe a third or half the time for about 20 years , but then I was able to be with my dad full time for the last 10 years of his life. YOLO.
The Monkees belong in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. So what if they were a TV band. They outsold, had more fans, were more iconic and had more hits than many if not most of the acts that are already in the Hall of Fame.
True ! If writing your own songs to be inducted, than Elvis and the Righteous Brothers shouldn't have been inducted. It was just a bunch of music snobs in the 60's who were jealous of their success.
I had a girl friend in college in the 80s, and she was a huge fan. I likewise was a fan of them mainly from reruns in the late 60s & 70s as a kid. This exploded after Nickoledeon did the late nite Monkees marathon, and they started touring again.
Hard to believe Micky is the only one of them left. RIP guys. Miss all of you.
WOW!! Time flies.. 32 years ago.. I've been liking them for 55 years..❤❤❤
RIP Peter and Davey. I will always love the Monkees.
And Mike
I just love how Davy plays his tambourine. I usually think what a waste of space a tambourine is but not when its Davy doing his thing. Adorable and talented man. Just love him RIP dear man x
Same with the girl who played Tracy Partridge (Suzanne Crough, peace be upon her as well ).
I have played tambourines & they are not as easy as it looks.
@@sambradley2975 And they're louder than one thinks they would be

Davy has improved over the years with that tambourine 😂😂
I always feel so damn happy inside when I hear a good tune from these guys...
This is proof that the Monkees were masters of catchy tunes and comedy!!!
All 3 of them are terrific dancers...love when they move! Davy looks so handsome here ! Peter has an adorable dimple and love his long hair and amazing moves! He rocks! Love Mickey's performance!!
ok peter is such an adorable cupcake

I can't believe that Peter Tork had passed away after Davy Jones!I love,love,love this group!
Very late reply. Sorry, but Davy passed before Peter. Davy in 2012, Peter in 2019
@@suecosano4887 Mickey Dolenz is the only surviving Monkee.
They were pure entertainers in every sense of the word - looks, talent and wonderful personalities. Loved this vid!
That's anti-rock 'n' roll...pure entertainers.
The world will never be the same without Peter Tork the most sexy talented dork!

Yes!
I have loved Davy since I first saw him. May he be surrounded by true love, peace and joy.

Davy was so handsome. They were adorable and make me smile.
He stayed handsome and youthful lucky blighter !
One of the few who could make a mullet look like the world's best haircut.
people don't appreciate tork enough
Totally underrated and underappreciated. So funny and a hilarious physical performer in addition to being a musician
I know, right? His dancing and improv comedy here are wonderful. As a kid I probably thought Davy Jones was the hottest, but as an adult Tork's charm wins me over in every clip.
I appreciate tork. Without tork we would have to ride horses.
He was the stoner on the band that's for sure.
@@patbrennan6572 They were all stoners.
Micky might be the most underrated signer ever. Treasure him.
I AGREE!!!!
Facts!
You mean singer?? Cause I agree❤

Do you hear that screaming !!?? It is 20 years later! Now that is longevity
I was flipping channels and saw this and after taking a long break from listening to the Monkees I got back into them
And now only one left RIP Davy, Mike, and Peter. Just can't believe they are gone. Same as the Bee Gees, only one left. RIP Robin, Maurice, and Andy.
They're still just as cute as in the 60s! These guys never lose their charms!
@missing4178 For whatever reason they have better looks in their middle ages here than when they were in their heyday.
Davy's in his element..and very handsome!
Peter was adorable!
Why oh why could I have been born before 1968? Peter Tork is SO dreamy.

It's not natural for Peter not to have an instrument
He made up for it by dancing
@@karenryan6654 his dancing in the Star Collector video is possibly the must adorable thing ever. And possibly pretty hot too x
@@ncb6487 The contribution of Peter and Davy"s dancing to the tv show music videos is not talked about enough
ahhh they sounded GREAT
Monkees have a good. Cult following. But if u really listen to. Their lyrics; they r deep messages there.
I moved Peter Torkelson from a nice beautiful house in Beverly Hills to a nicer and larger beautiful house in Beverly Hills. The garage had a stairway that led to a bridge which went across the driveway then down some stairs and into the plush living room. Very nice guy. Good tipper too!
"...and the kids just don't understand..."
Peter: "I know I don't"
Peter is so cute here! :)
It is 2021 Mike Nesmith has passed away. Micky is the last living member of the group now. We still have these videos and the Monkees music. So in an way they live forever.
Pet-ah...❤😍❤
And they did it all without auto-tune or pre-recorded backing tracks.
Peter Tork was hilarious and quite the musician.
Love them! Peter was so cute! 😔
I’m Not Your Stepping Stone is a Punk Classic! The Sex Pistols even covered it! RIP Peter and Davy
Maybe they’re Reunited in Heaven now and joking with each other!
R.I.P. Davy and Peter......
Gosh I remember watching this when it aired in 89. I was 14. I feel so old lol.
I was 30 so no worries lol
I was 12 when Davy was 19.
When I saw them on stage, it was Davy who was bringing up the New Monkees, he said they wish them luck but "they have to find their own audience ". Yes, at least several in the
audience were booing by then, and Micky saying, "Aw,
be nice."
@@daveyhouston Glad to hear there is a fellow Boomer here. I myself was about 29 but that is because I was born a bit late in the year, September. So I became 30 that year.
Micky's facial expressions!! Lol
I love them! I'm glad my sister introduced them to me when I was a teenager. Over 20 years ago. I just loved the show and their music.
Stage manager: ok let's not give Peter a bass
Peter: guess I'm a break dancer now
I would have loved to hang out with Peter for a day, I think he would have been a lot of fun - but I think I could have learned some life lessons from him,also.
Amazing footwork Peter!!! Y'all look so good here!!
He was adorable until the end. 😢 He will live on through the videos and music. Sweet guy.😇
The person yelling "PETER!!" at the very end 🤣
Ha ha ha
Omg. Pete's long hair! He actually looks hot. Lol 😁 love it! ❤️ 😍
Me encantó como se disfrutaron ese programa. Y nosotros tambien. Gracias por el video!!!

I can t believe that Davy and Peter have passed. I love them , wherever they are.
Peter was my favorite Monkee❤️sad only 1 Monkee left.
The Monkees just get better!! I will love them forever 💘

My feelings too
God after 50 + years, I still love Micky!
Ditto.
Davy was so handsome....RIP Davy Jones!!!
Omg. I forgot how hilarious they were.!
Stay tough Micky Dolenz!
LOVED that rendition of Steppin' Stone in the introduction!
They look and sound great here! 😅
Right? This may go down as one of my favorite Monkees interviews of all time
I miss these guys so much!
Pat was a great host. This shows should’ve kept going.
His show was a rightwing freak show. He makes $50 million a year working 2 hours a week but he attacks people who work 80-100 hours a week picking crops. Sajac is a racist Trumpster.
Great! So good to see them crazy and together! Miss Mike!♥️♥️♥️♥️
Peter looked younger in the 70s then he did in the 60s.
I don't agree. Look at his eyes.
@@karenryan6654 This show was in the 80s
Great clip! Glad I found it!
Always lovin Davy, 4-ever!!!
💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
Love Peter's long hair
Love Peter.
I grow up with The Monkees, I watch every episod with them on TV ( in Sweden).
I was always a Peter Tork fan! He could play and sing and I loved the way he played shy! Miss you! ❤️
These guys were awesome. Made my younger- days MORE awesome!!
In ‘66 I was 4 and my big sis was 13. Predictably, she loved Davey but 𝐏𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐑 was my guy. I’d still take her on if she ever wants to fight me. 😂

"Anita Keeler" I have read that Mickey hated being a Monkee and did not want to do the reunion shows in the 80s
They were so talented!
23 years after the hit record! Girls are screaming!
pretty cool...a better time.
AMAZING
Peter 😍
Iam glad I went two see them here in England sad that now Davy and Peter are now not with us rip you two
Long live The Monkees!!
How I wish I could go back in time. I miss those great days.

Fun to watch as always! Micky, you are one crazy dude! 🤪 The good kind of crazy!
I grew up watching the monkeys after school the show was our entertainment and our babysitter they where all my favorites.
I remember watching this episode.
Somehow kept that energy going all the way and it was not drugs either. Never know what they'll say lol.

True ! If writing your own songs to be inducted, than Elvis and the Righteous Brothers shouldn't have been inducted. It was just a bunch of music snobs in the 60's who were jealous of their success.
Their TV show had camera angles and uses and special effects that were later used quite a bit in TV today esp reality TV.
