The latest episode of our Rolling Stone Music Now<\/a> podcast celebrates the life and music of Peter Tork<\/a>, with previously unheard interview audio and more. Andy Greene and Rob Sheffield join host Brian Hiatt to discuss Tork\u2019s place in music history, while also tracing the Monkees<\/a>\u2019 broader story and making a case for their greatness.<\/p>\n

The show includes portions of Tork\u2019s 2007 interview with Rolling Stone<\/em>, recently published for the first time<\/a>, in which he defends his band. \u201cAs to whether the Monkees could play their own instruments,\u201d Tork said, \u201cthe usual joke is that no, we all played borrowed instruments, and we went out on the road and played our own hits, and it was kind of funny. That\u2019s almost exactly what the Byrds and the Beach Boys did, and the Byrds, after all, were playing other people\u2019s songs with other musicians in the studio.\u201d<\/p>\n
