Fullerton: was an early, and regular sit in with The Ridgerunners. As the final piece of the We
Five puzzle, Peter played a vital part of what would become the We Five sound. He
helped provide the bridge between folk music (with a stand up bass) and folk rock
(electric bass and drums). When the first phase of We Five disbanded in 1967, Pete and Jerry decided to stay true to the ideals of their sound and began a group with Jerry's wife Debbie. They called themselves the Tricycle. However, when A&M Records heard their sound, they encouraged Jerry, Peter, and Debbie to acquire the We Five name from the other original members. The result in 1968 was The Return Of We Five. In 1969 they teamed up again with Mike Stewart to produce the Catch The Wind album. His angelic high tenor voice was a staple on 4 of We Five’s 6 albums. His signature track “If Tomorrow Wasn’t Such A Long Time” (from Catch The Wind) has been re-released to CD for a new generation of We Five fans to discover his enduring and endearing legacy on the history of the band. |
