There may be a few drummers past or present as good as Peter Erskine, but there are none better. He is the finest musician residing behind a drum kit that I have ever been fortunate enough to play with. I had the pleasure of sharing the bandstand with Peter for a week this summer in Tokyo with Bob Mintzer’s incredible big band. It was an honor to sit down with Peter to discuss his approach to playing, his career and leading a musical life.
