In the early 90s, he had a monthly "celtic roots" guitar feature in the UK magazine " Guitar International". He favoured dadgad tuning had some great arrangements of Irish trad tunes and pieces by O'Carolan. I was wondering what he's up to these days. |

Peter was a heavy smoker and died of a stroke in Montreal in the early-1990s. I don't think he made it to 40. |

I play a few of his arrangements, and always give him credit when playing live. |
