I was blessed to meet Peter Tork back in 2004, and see him live in concert at Waterfest in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. I will never forget that special moment. Rest in peace Peter, you'll be truly missed 😢🙏♥
Got the chance to meet him, talk with him and pose with him in 92. He was on the same bill as my friend's Beatles Tribute Band. It was a wonderful night
This clip illustrates so well just how talented a musician Peter was, and I can now understand why he left The Monkees after two years. He wanted to pursue music seriously.
I wish I would’ve told you Peter how much you meant to me when I was 16. It was the 80s, Monkees were on rerun on Nick at Night. You were my favorite. ❤️❤️❤️ maybe I’ll see you on the other side, Lord willing.
I've never wanted to know Peter personally more than now. Every interview with him, i hear myself saying "yeah, me too". But i could never say that about musical instruments. I own many, and play none well. Peter is a natural, passionate instrument of music himself. He's more endearing than ever, and is once again my favorite Monkee. So SO sad that my first crush, Davy, is gone, because now we'll never get to see the Monkees play together again. Another sad goodbye. Please stick around Peter.
Thank you so very much for this post! I always Loved his song "For Pete's Sake" and I discovered that he re-recorded it. I love his arrangement and I play it frequently. God Bless Him!!! He is a tongue cancer survivor as I am. He's an inspiration to me in many ways!
I feel the same. Maybe it doesn't pay to live too long and watch as all your loved ones die off. I've lost two already this years in January and March. (And Mike left in December.) Just heartbreaking. 😢
I understand totally. It's very hard. I lost a daughter 5 years ago April 2 and I'm still dealing with that one. Although I'm not related to the MONKEES....I loved them. Nearly 70 now I am enjoying their show again. They make me smile. I'll keep you in my prayers.🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@brendajones7111 Thank you so much. This has been a tough year. My condolences on your losss. 💙 My daughter let me know she just had to have her 15 year old dog put down, too. On top of that the pandemic goes on. I also fractured my hip in February and am working hard to learn to walk again without a walker or cane. Better days are coming for us all, I pray! 🙏
@5:05 in that photo Peter is reading "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahansa Yogananda (if you don't know about that book look it up) Peter was definitely a "seeker." RIP Peter T.
Yea. Looks don’t mean much. Everyone’s got to go [that way], unless they freeze you at 21......lifeless though. Heard a story of a little boy who visited Heaven in the NDE after a car accident( he said all people’s There look real young........amazing. Ok Then Peter & Davy........ Young 21 year olds again, this time forever.
I love his adoration of the blues especially with that idea so many people are all about that no one CAN be or allowed to be down or bummed out or in a bad mood. I still find that so bogus and bizarre. We are all human and bad moods exist, we can't eradicate them by denying them outright. He is very correct!
Davey died 5 days after my dad in February 2012. Peter died 3 days after my mom in February 2019. Talk about losing your childhood all at the same time. May they all rest in peace
Tricia Castle Of course not! You appreciated Peter for the wonderful person he was. It was meant for the idiot who said he looks like an old homeless dude. What a jerk! I adore him, too, always have. I loved him when he was young, when he was old, when he was ill, and now, even though he's not with us anymore. I will never forget him.
SUPER! STELLAR and still has those dimples! "Just like mine" he told me--March 8, 1980, with 26 French kisses and 3 hours of bliss... Oh, man he was SOMETHING! I was 16 and utterly mezmerized by him He was so beautiful Kim
By now he should have been pronounced as "cured" from the cancer. Not sure how many years you have to be cancer free for that. Glad he educated people about his kind of cancer. The kind he had has now gone from "very rare" to the 5th most common to where head/neck screenings are becoming routine.
Twenty nine years sober at that time and stayed sober til the end. That's something to smile about.
What a genuine human being, RIP Peter.
I knew that Peter was the most accomplished musician. He is a musical genius. What a great man!!! Love you Pete Torkelson!!!
RIP Peter Tork. A lovely man by all accounts. Another part of childhood bites the dust!
Exactly how I feel. So many former teen idols dying 😢
Agreed. This hurts.
I know that Davey Jones was the most popular Monkee but Peter Tork was always and will forever be my favorite! Rest In Peace Dear Sweet Peter!
They're all my favourite now but when I first saw the show, it was definitely Peter.
Mine to🌹😢
He was one of my big crushes!
Definitely the best musician of them.
Peter was - and IS - absolutely my FAVE too!!! I wonder who are the idiots who downvoted this???
How adorable is he here ~ Rest in Peace dear Peter
I met him in the early 90's. Really nice guy. It's so sad we all have to age and get old. RIP Peter.
Was my favorite Monkee....he was a very good musician.
I always liked this man from day one. I'm jealous of those who had the privilage to meet him. Rest in peace.
I was blessed to meet Peter Tork back in 2004, and see him live in concert at Waterfest in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. I will never forget that special moment. Rest in peace Peter, you'll be truly missed 😢🙏♥
Rest in Love, Peter. You will always be loved and missed.
Lovely man. RIP Peter, thanks for the memories.
R.I. P. Peter. You were Awesome!
Very nice interview with such a nice and extremely talented guy. Never saw this before. Thanks for sharing.

A better man than I ever knew!

Peter Tork was very talented and huge inspiration.

Excellent. I wish there were more interviews with Peter like this one. Fantastic job. Thank you for posting. Luv you Mr.Tork.
What a lovely man!
Amazing man..Thank you..
Is it just me or does Peter remind you of My favorite Martian? RIP Peter you gave us all smiles watching you and the other guys on The Monkees..
With Davy, Peter and Mike's passing, I feel like my childhood has gone. Hard to deal with some days.
I feel the same. Maybe it doesn't pay to live too long and watch as all your loved ones die off. I've lost two already this years in January and March. (And Mike left in December.) Just heartbreaking. 😢

@@brendajones7111 Thank you. You are very kind. I hope it gets easier for you, not that it will ever be "easy." You know what I mean. ❤️
Peter, glad to see you enjoying life. Would love to meet you one day. And you still have those beautiful brown eyes that make me *swooooooon*
did you ever get to meet him :/
@@unforgivenxiv i was gonna ask the same thing :((
He's as charming as ever. Long life and health to you, Peter.
@5:05 in that photo Peter is reading "Autobiography of a Yogi" by Paramahansa Yogananda (if you don't know about that book look it up) Peter was definitely a "seeker." RIP Peter T.
Very enlightening book. Everyone should read it.
My favourite.
Everyone else has already said it better than I can. . . .you're in our hearts Peter. xo
Now he is free of Cancer & everything..
He was my favorite Monkee. He's old but still a cutie.
What a gent! How we miss you, Peter.
Love you Peter and ummm hello Rock n Roll H O F?!?! HEADQUARTERS and albums after was them playing n writing so let’s get them in.... they deserve it
what a sweetheart
3.15. That's when the Peter we knew appears. A good interview.
Yea. Looks don’t mean much.
Everyone’s got to go [that way], unless they freeze you at 21......lifeless though.
Heard a story of a little boy who visited Heaven in the NDE after a car accident(
he said all people’s There look real young........amazing.
Ok Then Peter & Davy........
Young 21 year olds again, this time forever.
I hope he knew how much HE was loved ...not the 'image of him' but the real him.
My first guru
Peter Tork a true musician
This world has lost a very talented man,R.I.P. Peter xxx
Great interview!!! I miss Peter very much too!!
Rest in peace, Peter!
beautifully said and done!!
Everything about that man is so gorgeous.
...God bless Peter Tork...
God I miss you
....you angel....YOU AAAAANGEL! ....A Wonderfully talented 'Monkee', and, A kind SOUL... (RIP)
Rest easy buddy. "Love you," Pete. Michael
As Mike said to Peter in this episode (ruclips.net/video/KNWC0VIBnrg/видео.html): "if you love music, you can play music". Peter lived that quote.
Got my picture taken with him in 82
Greatly missed. Rest in peace, Peter.
Cool Peter Rest In Peace

Davey died 5 days after my dad in February 2012. Peter died 3 days after my mom in February 2019. Talk about losing your childhood all at the same time. May they all rest in peace
Wow, so sorry for your loss. It never goes away, does it?
que épocas ... Los Monkees... todos un buen trabajo. y Peter. siempre muy simpático. y guapísimo
God love ya, Peter!
Good Actor
Peter mentions that he left the group to do music and that the others didn't want to do that. In the end that's exactly what all of them did.
I'm not sure that's the 'They' he was talking about...
Rest in peace, Peter. You are greatly missed. 💙💙💙
I can't imagine anyone not loving him. He was the real deal.
Tricia Castle Of course not! You appreciated Peter for the wonderful person he was. It was meant for the idiot who said he looks like an old homeless dude. What a jerk! I adore him, too, always have. I loved him when he was young, when he was old, when he was ill, and now, even though he's not with us anymore. I will never forget him.
A true artist....RIP
The guys were struggling musicians only to be usurped by 40's generation TV executives.
Stellar human being.
Lovely man ☺️
I loved him
I wondered what happened to Leeza. She was in NZ in the late 80's and appeared on a Telethon fundraiser here.
Thats my man! Peter Tork! I LOVE THE MONKEES!
I want to meet Him!!!!!!!!!
He was so talented
For Pete’s Sake...RIP
what a cool guy
Once, Peter loaned $25K to David Crosby to buy a boat. I wonder if the loan ever was ever repaid? RIP Peter Tork
RIP p tork
And he still has that dimple on his right cheek.
RIP Peter 💔
RIP
SUPER! STELLAR and still has those dimples! "Just like mine" he told me--March 8, 1980, with 26 French kisses and 3 hours of bliss... Oh, man he was SOMETHING! I was 16 and utterly mezmerized by him He was so beautiful Kim

Glad he educated people about his kind of cancer. The kind he had has now gone from "very rare" to the 5th most common to where head/neck screenings are becoming routine.
sadly they tend to come back , some become other forms but a lot of times they come back.
Sadly it came back and took his life.
RIP Peter
RIP Pete!
RIP Peter ! Its sad he died !
💖
We walked the monkee walk all the way home from school
So do I.
