My wife went to see them at a Miami hotel, and there was a little known b and opening for them called Jimmy Hendrix and the Experience! They didn’t know what to make of them!

“I wonder if Mr. Bob Dobalina heard the sad news?”

Bob Dobalina and Theresa Rentaria (an audience member on ‘The Carol Burnet Show’) are two of my favorite names of all time. :)

RIP, Peter. Thanks for all the laughs, music and fun!

...and they still sound good, even on CD. A lot of the 60’s music sounds horrible now because it was designed to sound ok coming out of a 2” speaker. It breaks my heart that the Turtles music sounds like it was recorded with a telephone. What’s wrong with it can’t be fixed digitally.

The production equipment at Columbia/Colgems was the finest analog equipment that could be built at the time, at any price.

Two Monkees remaining, two Beatles remaining,

That's what I suggested with the two surviving members of The Who, then they would be The Whotles.
