[Dixielandjazz] Left Coasters -- Where is Pete Kier the awesome bass horn man?

[Don Ingle]

Going thorugh some cassettes made at Central City Jazz Fest in late 70's with the Sons of Bix I came across one with Pete Kier subbing for our regular bass sax player. He was one awesome player named Pete Kier, and was from CA. Wondered why I have not caught his name here over the years.
Still with us I hope.
What a fine player, and a very nice guy.
Anyone have any infor on thi player?
