Corkey Messner? Not a real person. Nope. A cartoon character from the 70’s.

I have known that Corky was the drummer and best voiced singer on The Monkees since 1966, when UHF Channel 18 in Puerto Rico (which also showed The Man From UNCLE, Get Smart, Mr. Terrific, & Bat Man) began carrying the non-dubbed into Spanish version of The Monkees.

And I don’t want any shit from anyone like @mattinpa or @darcy about the relative merits of each of the Monkees as vocalists.
