Stranger Things Have Happened by Peter Tork is thirty – five minutes and eight seconds long and was released in 1994. This is Peter’s debut solo album and his only solo album to date. Granted he has performed with his band Shoe Suede Blues and with James Lee Stanley, but has not released another solo since the debut of Stranger Things Have Happened. The album in done in the genre of pop, rock and folk. One of the songs, Giant Step, is a remake of the Monkees Take A Giant Step and features Mackenzie Phillips of One Day At At Time fame singing backups. On the song Milkshake, Michael Nesmith and Mickey Dolenz are singing backups and Michael Nesmith again sings backup on MGB-GT. Only one that is missing is Davy Jones and you would have had a Monkees reunion of sort. Although the music critics gave the album high praise, the album and none of the songs charted. By entire beef with the album are two songs and they are Giant Step and Higher and Higher. Peter sings them like some kind of Rankin\Bass holiday Christmas special. Anytime I hear his version of the song I have a sudden urge to go on YouTube and look for a four finger Claymation figure doing a song and dance number. This is my first Peter Tork CD so I am not going to compare it to his other albums. Stranger Things Have Happened by Peter Tork gets an AA++.
