Peter Tork figures that, had he never become a member of 1960s television pop-rock band The Monkees, he still would have had a music career.
“It would have been exactly the same,” Tork says in a recent call from his Connecticut home.
“Well, it wouldn’t have been as large and as loud, probably. That was an extraordinary phenomenon. But I would have been a folky blues-rocker solo singer-songwriter. I probably would have been playing small clubs all my life.”
