Robert Dunn has throughly absorbed and harnessed all of the intricacies of the music of Saxophone legends Charlie Parker, Sonny Rollins, Eric Dolphy and adapted these to the guitar such as to unleash from his own passions a speed, fury & brilliance that is
unparalleled in modern jazz guitar playing.



On A Life In Jazz Guitar Playing.: Starting in the mid 60s it was all rock for me with Cream and Jimi Hendrix great musical inspiration. Since 1966 I had had the most wonderful guitar teacher (Diane Whitcomb) who insisted I learn to read, chord solos, and study my exercises so that the following week I could play them as perfectly as I could (which was not very God Damned perfect at all!). In 1971 she and her boyfriend at the time (a great guitarist now in Seattle Washington named Fred McCall) took me to the big jazz guitarists hangout at Donte's in North Hollywood to see Joe Pass. She pointed out who was who in the audience that had turned out to see Joe that night. (And just to show you how jazz was in the SF Valley) Barney

Hi Robert, I think I'm going to enjoy your music, it has a really wild quality that is infectious.
I've been busy in my studio today and recorded a 'direct to recorder' improvisation. Hope you can check it out . . .
