Peter Tork Monkees made us believers

When it was revealed that the Monkees sang their songs but did not play instruments on their first album, there were understandable calls of "Prefab Four", a reference to the Beatles' nickname "The Fab Four". those who performed the musical lifting were among the best in the industry; It was the same for the group of songwriters, including Carole King, Gerry Goffin, Neil Diamond and Harry Nilsson. On the show, Tork played the role of an adorable dunce, a foil for Nesmith's common sense, Dolenz's antics and Jones' endless courtesy to young women.
