Peter and Michael, the musical talents of the band. They both wanted the Monkees to be a 'real' band and they did so for 2 albums. Then, that stopped and it really bothered Peter. He was a musician and wanted the Monkees to remain as the musicians but it wasn't in the cards, so he bought out his contract and left the group. A great piano/organ player and could hold his own on guitar, bass and banjo as well. RIP Peter Tork.
