Peter Tork lived a full and varied life.

From his days as a folksinger on the streets of Greenwich Village through his days with the Monkees and into his solo career, Peter brought a special blend of humor and passion into everything he did.

Peter passed away on February 21, 2019 leaving an incredible legacy behind. Jim Monaghan first met Peter in 1986 and enjoyed a more than 30-year friendship.

This was an interview Jim and Peter did in August 2010 to promote a show Peter was doing here in New Jersey that summer.
