Pete Abbott: "Those little periods of time made a BIG difference..."

On this Pete Abbott interview, graduating from University of Miami jazz program and hightailing it straight up to New York City, in an act of blind faith (that worked out great)… working with Jose Feliciano, the serendipity of how he became a member of the Average White Band, moving to Norway for 9 years and the cultural adjustments he had to make, surviving divorce, his TOP 3 musical experiences & his worst gig ever, St. Maarten, dealing with loss, Prague, being more accepting of people and loads more.
