	Fog City Records presents: Charlie Hunter
		Charlie's recent move to Brooklyn may make it easier to maintain his relationship with Blue Note Records, but really resulted from his need for new challenges, and an eagerness to be around musicians who make him feel like "a little fish in a big pond".
		Regardless of the reasons, Charlie was there and he was called onstage early into the show, and what was supposed to be a tune or two turned into an all-nighter...
		Hunter's talent also shines in his effort to not be overtly present on the record, proving that understated, supportive playing is more the sign of a great musician than any self-indulgent chops.

	Amazon.ca: Duo: Music: Charlie Hunter & Leon Parker (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Guitarist Charlie Hunter and percussionist Leon Parker have both made names for themselves by producing jazz that is both inventive and invigorating.
		It's not that Charlie Hunter isn't a good guitar player by any standard, but his simultaneous guitar/bass shtick does seem to limit his playing to a certain, comparably narrow space.
		Charlie Hunter is a very fine artist, but in my opinion this Duo project plays to his weaknesses.

	Charlie Hunter Trio: Friends Seen & Unseen
		Hunter’s music is all about groove, but he’s able to mine an amazing number of different grooves and doesn’t get bogged down in the jamming for jamming’s sake school of guitarism.
		Hunter’s “Darkly” continues to mine a mysterious vibe, but the reference point this time is a straight-ahead jazz group with flute, again a sound that harks back at least three decades.
		Hunter and his group are able to reference these earlier sounds without really ever coming across as retro, in large part because Hunter and Ellis both are modern jazz musicians whose solo voices come across as completely their own.

		Two things that mark Charlie Hunter's career are the singular style of his 8-string guitar playing (it sounds more like an organ) and the fact that each album finds him trying new things.
		Hunter has always been a great guitarist, but if he keeps going the direction he's headed in, he'll be a giant.
		Hunter's style of music is to mix bass and guitar at the same time.

		The mighty Hunter plays an eight string guitar of his own design made by the iconoclastic Novax Guitars that has three actual bass strings on the bottom and five guitar strings that usually sound like an organ.
		Although Charlie reverently acknowledges and always credits the work of his heroes like Thelonius Monk, James Brown, Rahsaan Roland Kirk and the lineage of jazz giants, he also draws heavily from the pop music of his entire life.
