Legendary guitarist Peter (78) was famous throughout the 1960's and known as "NZ's greatest guitarist". He shot to fame in the 60's and 70's and released 28 singles, 15 EPs and 23 albums. Peter knew other entertainment greats including Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Chet Atkins and Herb Ellis and worked in the world's most famous recording studios.
