I was a huge Church fan and budding guitarist for a period of a few years before I actually was able to see them live for the first time. When I did see them live, 95% of my favorite guitar soundscapes were played by Peter, He's an absolute magnificent unique player. A HUGE influene on what I have personally attempted to play for the past twenty years. Plus, he's a very nice gentleman to boot. Very approachable and friendly.

This interview sucks, the questions are stupid, good Lord. Peter wasted his time...

[holboroman]

@tonicfan Come now, do you really expect interviewers to ask intelligent questions that go beyond the trivia. I recommend watching videos of Bob Dylan being interviewed early in his career. Bob really does unleash his venom onto the interviewer. Great stuff.

When you get to the states were you managing yourselves?"

"No, its a pretty big place."

[Criddington]

The interviewer is a bit of idiot; terrible questions!

[mahlstadt]

@krazynite he's best guitarist too

[jamichelash]

Peter is a great guitarist such a humble talent

[caiofons]

In the background "Constant in Opal" and between 2:28 and 3:38, "Volumes" (Wilson-Piper).

[krazynite]

Peter seems the most "level headed" out of the Church....straight to the point with his answers.

[urblut]

At 12 seconds - they spelled Peter's last name as Coppes
