Monkees music star Peter Tork dead at 77

[@davidellis5141]

I was actually in a social studies class taught by Peter. He was a well grounded person & very forthright about his travails & triumphs in the entertainment world. RIP 🎸

[@stoneyll]

RIP peter Tork.. The Monkees will always live in my memories.

[@johnvirgilio5323]

They were fun! Peter wasn't the only comic relief. They were all funny, and yeah they did some cool songs, with some great vocals. At first Mickey was my favorite ( after all the Beatles! ), but Mike Nesmith's songs tipped the scale in later albums. The girls said Peter was cute. I thought he was cool, and a fine musician! Peace RIP

Stoney Curtis . In all our memories. The first band I ever daw onT.V.

[@shay2218]

Loved The Monkees

[@frankconnelly8880]

grew up loving the music of the monkees,and with him gone,this changes the last two remaining

[@usernametaken5619]

RIP Peter. My childhood was filled with the Monkees wonderful music. Pete caught the last train to Clarksville, Davy will meet him at the station.

[@JustMe-ec2ph]

I know I am among the few that didn't care for the Beatles but I loved loved loved the Monkees. So sad when Davy passed and now Peter. I guess I liked them so much not just because of their music talent but their sense of humor. Humor is how I cope with all of the stress in life (whatever works, right? LOL) so that's probably why I loved them so much their music and their humor. I love it as much now as I did then.

[@JustMe-ec2ph]

@@Pennst44 I understand not everyone is into humor like I am and that's ok but the Monkees were great with our without their humor.

[@johnvirgilio5323]

I've noticed in my slightly younger friends the same thoughts of Monkee superiority. Those without the proper Beatles foundation are susceptible to this form of misplacement. That said, I Love the Monkees!

[@sandrab8795]

Now they're both gone, my favorite Davy and my sisters favorite, Peter. He will be sorely missed. He was a great musician and comedian. R. I. P. Peter.

[@evillyn7895]

How sad. Goodbye Peter. Thanks for the happy memories.

[@deannaharby5677]

[@blaisegordon1]

I used to watch this show as a kid and still watching it on fetv on Saturday mornings wow I love that show it takes me back

[@lesmartinsings]

We loved the Monkees in the UK, the boys, the songs and the TV show. It was a lighter breezier time and less uptight time, its was the 60's i wasn't even a teenager but i loved them and always will.Condolences to Peters family and friends.

[@rubywingo6030]

EVERYONE loved Peter! We all had our favorites but we all loved Peter!

[@water2wine1]

Rest In Peace ☮️ Peter

[@vietpir]

It’s much sad as losing Estelle Getty from the Golden Girls. RIP Peter Tork.

[@neutral6944]

RIP Peter. 🙏

[@sambradley2975]

God bless The Monkees! Thank Michael Nesmith, (George) Michael "Micky" Dolenz, David Armstrong Jones, & Peter Halsten Thorkelson , (peace be upon the two of them ), for giving us decades of joy, laughter, & music, thank you for getting America & the world through the turbulent '60s.Thank you for keeping the '60s flame burning. "Hey, Hey, we're The Monkees ".😥🎼🎶✌

[@1mespud]

Thank you Peter Tork for doing your part to help tame mankind with your gift and talent. May GOD bless your legacy and surviving family. The Monkees was part soundtrack of my once young life as to many others. Tell Davy we all said hey! In the meantime, I'll keep the music playing..

[@melissacooper4282]

RIP Peter Tork. You were always my favorite Monkee. Even though you are gone from this world your music will always live on.

[@c.syde65]

I played "Merry Go Round" on my PC to honour Peter Tork just now. It is my favourite Monkees song where Peter makes a solo stand as a singer. "Peter Percival Patterson's Pet Pig Porky" was another of my favourites, but that isn't really even a song. Peter will be missed! ;(

[@thomassibalski958]

My wife absolutely loved and still loves the Monkees. Very sad to hear about Peter. She still goes on U Tube and brings up their show and songs. Her and my granddaughter very often listen to the Monkees and sing, sing, sing. Rest in peace Peter and say hello to Davey for us!

[@Sandlot1992]

R.I.P. Peter Tork, this is a very sad day!

[@suziburton4373]

Sad to hear this news. Me and my BFF from back in the day did plenty of dancing around her living room to the Monkees music. Never thought their music got the respect it deserved. We sure enjoyed it!

[@waltwynn-sandiegonorthcoun8475]

Rest In Peace

[@painkillerjones6232]

He was actually the best musician out of the bunch.

[@broncodeviltexas]

Sad to hear another piece of our childhood dying. Peter was always fun to see on tv and interviews. Thank you Peter. RIP

[@maryannehuber2922]

I saw Peter and the Monkees in 2000, when I lived in Indiana. Very talented musician but didn't get enough credit for it. I'll miss him. May the angels lead you into Paradise, may He greet you in His holy city Jerusalem, may yours and all the souls of the faithfully departed, rest in peace.

Rest In Peace/Paradise/Power Brother Peter Tork 🙏

[@kimanderson8556]

I'm deeply saddened by hearing about the death of Peter Tork!! I was ALWAYS a HUGE "Monkees" fan when I was growing up. Some of my FAVORITES by them were.."Daydream Believer", "Mary Mary", and "Steppin' Stone". I know that now he's in a better place now with no more pain and suffering but it's still hard when we lose GREAT and famous people. Peter Tork will DEFINITELY be missed by MANY MANY fans. RIP Peter and thanks for the GREAT memories!!

[@chasstiles7611]

RIP Peter

[@edieboudreau9637]

Aw. Peter was fun. Sadness.

[@steveblease]

R.I.P I still listen to their hits album weekly.

[@AustinDickerson2001Tiger]

RIP Peter Tork (1942-2019)

[@TheCaveman46]

I'm going to see if I can find copies of Peter as Topanga's father from Boy Meets World. RIP, Peter Tork. 😢

[@DanielGomez-gw4kt]

I remembered since last year, that Mike Nesmith had reformed a new lineup of the first national band. Which was a country rock band he formed in the early seventies and recorded three albums together. Now that Peter is gone, and Micky Dolenz and Mike Nesmith are the only surviving Monkees. Micky Dolenz should join Mike Nesmith's new lineup of the first national band, and with future shows of the Monkees. It should be known as Michael Nesmith, Micky Dolenz and the first national band singing and playing the Monkees

[@snooooopycomehome]

Mike and Mickey have been touring together as the Mike and Mickey show since 2018. I personally had a ticket last years show when it was cancelled that day due to Mike heart condition. I also have a ticket to a PA show next month. Mike also toured last year with newly reformed First National Band Redux along with two of his sons which I also attended. If your a fan and you want to see them you'd better do it soon. Love you Peter...RIP.

[@sambradley2975]

And Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr should hook up too, & perform.

[@thetruthful9805]

I grew up watching Monkees. RIP PETER

[@65wiseman]

I am truly saddened by this. I saw him recently and knew that he was not well. Mr Tork will go on forever; the love he gave and received makes him immortal.

[@bloomfieldplymouth8159]

Wow. 😞 I remember running home from elementary school to watch Gilligan’s Island, The Brady Bunch and The Monkees. Such good times as a kid. After the Monkees we would flip the channel to watch Ultraman and Johnny Sokko and his Flying Robot. Thank you Peter for being a happy memory of my childhood. I hope to see you in Heaven.

[@piperlyons-wade756]

Davy and Peter reunited in heaven!!! Love you boys!!

[@bobbyolson8748]

R I.P. loved your music since the 80's. :)

[@normanrowe2831]

Sad! He, along with his fellow band mates brought a lot of pleasure to their many fans. Rest in peace, Peter Tork.

[@anthonybeno1481]

Thanks for the memories......

[@Bearwoman11]

RIP

[@elliemm557]

There goes my first crush, ((sigh)). You were the cutest Monkee, and the funniest,.....and the only blonde!~ The fun of the show, and the harmonious music the Monkees made, still brings me back to Summer. Peace☮

[@sambradley2975]

Peace be upon Peter Halsten Thorkelson, (aka Peter Tork )!😥🎼✌

[@trevorthompson7604]

Very sad news my first interest in music was the Monkees loved the TV show and their music r.I.p peter tork you made a difference

[@darlenebattle3005]

So sorry we lost another member of the Monkees. Peter Tork's character seemed very innocent. I miss Davy as well. I heard in an interview Peter's favorite song was "Sally Go Round The Roses". I thought that was an interesting choice. RIP Peter Tork.

[@LeasaAnn]

RIP Peter Tork..thank you

[@dharmabeachbum6330]

RIP Peter. I remember when you were the young generation, and you had something to say

[@Oshimpia]

Rip

[@sambradley2975]

So sad, I always liked him, he had a sweetness & child like persona that made the show work, he was the Ringo of the group.

[@baseboy1241]

Sad to hear this, good guy Peter, R.I.P.

[@kainnosgoth7336]

This Just Doesn't Seem To Be Our Day.......

[@sambradley2975]

Peace upon Peter Tork, the comic relief of the group. He was the bass player & a real folk artist who performed in Greenwich Village in NY. He was a bonified Hippie. The 1st Monkee to leave the group in 1968.

[@lisabullock7461]

RIP Peter, Dave was waiting

RIP, Peter Tork. I loved those suede boots/moccasins you used to wear.

An era has truly ended.. 😥

[@PhoenixYah]

OMG I LOVED THE MONKEES Davy and Peter are my favorites they were so HOT SEXY AND SO FUNNY THEY ALL WERE SO COMICAL GOT TO WATCH SHOW AGAIN on one of those retro TV channels still super funny even in this day and age.

[@beansprout9908]

[@Cwgrlup]

Awe- rip !

[@sambradley2975]

Peter only had one single in the group "Auntie Grizelda ". He was very talented & eclectic.

[@RobertBroatch-dc5qw]

What a different time..

[@douglasghiz1287]

R.I.P. Davy Jones, Peter Tork

[@sambradley2975]

Now The Monkees are exactly like The Beatles, only 2 members left. 😥

[@Community56sunshine]

Loved that guy...

[@JadenYukifan28]

I find it a bit ironic...in a good way, that they played "Daydream Believer" at the beginning of the video for this...they did the same thing when Davy Jones had died

[@sambradley2975]

The Monkees are no more, just like The Beatles, they can never reunite the way people remember them, now it's just Mike & Mickey (for now anyway ).😥

[@christopherellis2663]

A good innings. I trust that he was enjoying life

[@sambradley2975]

He was friends with Stephen Stills, who looks just like him. In fact, Stephen Stills almost became a Monkee, but because of his bad teeth, he was dropped, but he referred Peter to the producers.
