In a music business amply buffered against surprise, Danny Gatton
swam stubbornly, from country, to gospel, rockabilly, soul, and
standards. "Redneck Jazz" became Gatton's calling card for playing
whatever and whenever he wanted. Hailed as the best unknown guitar
player by both Rolling Stone and Guitar player magazines, he was a
players' player who never received the popular acclaim he deserved.
The struggle to reach a wider audience while staying true to his
own muse proved to much for him to bear, and in 1994 he took his
own life. Gatton's legend has only grown since his untimely death,
along with appreciation for his blinding speed, effortless
genre-hopping, flawless technique, and never-ending appetitie for
tinkering and problem-solving. Unfinished Business places Gatton's
musical contributions into context, as well as his influence on
those peers who admired him most, including Albert Lee, Vince Gill,
Arlen Roth, and Lou Reed.
