Biography

The Quartette Trés Bien was an American jazz combo based in St. Louis led by pianist Jeter Thompson. The group was founded in 1959 and began recording in 1962. Jeter Thompson played with Jimmy Forrest, Oliver Nelson and Emmett Carter in his early years. The bassist of the group is Richard Simmons, the drummer Albert St. James who accompanied also Charlie Parker, Tab Smith and Jimmy Forrest. Percussionist Percy James added a latin flavor to the quartet who played more than ten years, before splitting in 1973. Jeter Thompson later assembled the Trio Tres Bien with his brothers Harold Thompson (bass) and Howard Thompson (drums).
