“It was first as a journalist reviewing his book and music that I encountered Peter Murray, and then as Editor in Chief of Bass Player magazine, working with him as a writer. As an artist, teacher, and writer, he was talented and hard-working, and easy-going yet disciplined. So when I first heard he’d be promoting Markbass in North America, I knew that the innovative amp brand would be even bigger here than in Europe, which is exactly what happened under Peter’s watch. Knowledgeable and diplomatic, Peter’s every effort was carefully crafted and boldly executed. One of the Markbass press events Peter presented sticks in my mind as one of the best executed I’ve ever attended. And I have to admit: though the stars ultimately weren’t aligned, on more than one occasion I tried to recruit Peter to come work for me. Good thing though, because the impact he had at Markbass was phenomenal. I have no doubt that Peter will continue to have an impact in whatever he undertakes.”
