RIP Peter Tork

Why weren't there any girl bands like that in the 60s and 70s? I mean proper raunchy bands like Dixie Chicks that a teenage lad could drool over.

"Drool" is possibly the wrong verb when talking about teenage lads.

Timothy Leary, the acid guru, regarded the Monkees as a highly subversive force. Mind you, by then he had totally fried his brains with his chemical of choice. Anyway, sad news. They were fun.
