Quotes from Peter Tork

Yes, I am a good singer.

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.

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

Getting to play the blues has been transcendant for me. I can't say if my finest hour is yet to come, you want to make a dent in this world, well I do anyway.

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.

My most favourite gigs that ever happened were solo, before The Monkees ever happened.

Nobody ever lends money to a man with a sense of humor.

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

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.

I never listen to music in the house, I listen to music in the car.

I did as well as I knew how and have nothing to be ashamed of.
