hendrix and the monkees...who put those 2 on the same bill....thats like letting abba and zappa tour together...

I think they dropped him like a hot potato when they realised what Hendrix was. I had all The Monkees catalogue once - am I right in that only the last few were done as a real band? I meant before all their big famous bands were the Kareoke ones. I didn't know about Pete (my favourite) being that musical. Thought it was Nesmith

I think Pete was classically trained and a multi-instrumentalist. When I saw them live he performed a solo classical piece on piano.

i don't think he is as dedicated as rick stanbridge he learned to mime first....some like rick deserve to make it......pete was probally like people claim about ringo...the least talented...tak a poll and see if i'm right....not that i am downing him...only his calibre of dedication...
