Peter King Quartet

Brecon Jazz 2009, 
Steve Melling – piano, Martin Drew – drums, Peter King – sax.

'The finest alto saxophonist that Britain has ever produced, and one of the finest in the world today' (Dave Gelly, The Giants of Jazz), has been a major influence on the British Jazz scene ever since he played at the age of eighteen for the opening of Ronnie Scott’s, London's internationally famous jazz Mecca. 'Had Ronnie Scott's Club died overnight and been heard of no more it could still have justified its existence by pointing to a discovery like Peter King.' Benny Green.
