    He used to be a bit 'too busy' at the early stuff ..... but he's fantastic now - a great band addition indeed. Well done mate!

    What that amazing and humble fellow sort of brushes over is the fact that at the age of 11 he had learned pretty much their entire catalog of music (at the time), showed up to a gig, and played every tune Mark called PERFECTLY, note for bloody note. Obviously, everyone at that show, both in the band and the audience were having to pick their lowers jaws up from the floor, after that.

    I used to watch Pete play with Frank White back when we were kids, one of the best drummers I've ever seen. Great to see him get the Level 42 gig, a long way from the Pheasant Pete.

    🇧🇷 Brazilian fan here ...What a great addition to the band Pete is...! The concert at Rockpalast 2022, is incredible...! The drumming is so tight and the quality of the sound of drums and keyboard 🎹 on Love Games, and the bip bip bip bip from Mike, in particular for me is superb, Starchild too is just an absolute joy to.listrn too...!

    I'd got used to seeing Level 42 with Pete's predecessor(s) and was blown away the first time I saw them after Pete joined. He added real power to the sound and really brought the songs to life. It felt like his involvement had made the whole band step up a gear. Great drummer.

    Peter Ray Biggin is a brilliant player and his drumming style fits in perfectly with their sound.
    I've heard that he was hugely influenced by (original Level 42 drummer) Phil Gould's playing and I can certainly detect a similarity in his approach. He's a great addition to the band.

    There is some slang in there. What is a “depth” drummer? Or did he say temp?

      A ‘dep’ meaning deputy drummer is when one drummer can’t do a performance e.g. because of unavailability and so a ‘dep’ drummer is brought in, like in teaching, etc. (:
