	Danny Gatton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Danny Gatton (September 4, 1945 – 4 October 1994) was a talented and enigmatic American guitarist who committed suicide at his Maryland home in 1994 while still relatively unknown to the public.
		Gatton was born in Washington, DC on September 4, 1945.
		Gatton's playing combined musical styles such as jazz, blues and rockabilly in an innovative fashion, and he was known by some as "the telemaster" or "the world's greatest unknown guitarist".

	Super Guitarist Danny Gatton
		Gatton's genius, if that's what it was, lay in his ability to synthesize an almost impossibly broad range of styles, and in his mastery of guitar mechanics.
		Danny Gatton was born in Washington, D.C., at 88 Elmira Street - as noted in the title of his first Elektra album.
		Gatton must have been one of the first, perhaps the first act in what can loosely be called rock music to make his major-label debut at age forty-six, but he wasn't the product of major-label culture and didn't belong there.

		Danny played this instrument throughout most of the 1980's into the early '90's, up to the time his Signature model was built by Fender.
		Danny liked the way this Strat felt to him (he was not a Strat man because the middle pickup got in his way).
		Danny and his father designed and built the original box (pictured further up in this page) to control a variety of effects and amplifiers, all with the push of a button, the rotation of a knob, or the flick of a switch.

	Danny Gatton - Biography - AOL Music
		Guitar virtuoso Danny Gatton was known for the incredibly wide stylistic range of his playing; based in rockabilly, Gatton's musical vocabulary included R&B, pop, country, rock, and jazz, all of which he could play effectively.
		Gatton returned to Washington, D.C., to be near his friends and family while playing up and down the East Coast with several bands and doing session work.
		Gatton toured the nation solo for the first time in 1993 in support of Cruisin' Deuces, but its lack of success, coupled with the departure of A&R man Howard Thompson from Elektra, spelled the end of Gatton's association with the label.

		Danny Gatton's debut as a bandleader proved notable for its celebration of neglected idioms like rockabilly, which energized roots music advocates around his native Washington, D.C. Bassist Billy Hancock's up-tempo title track comes across as a rallying cry of sorts, an impression underscored by the Clovers' presence on backup vocals.
		Gatton would famously dismiss the album as "so many different things with different guys who didn't play with us." That's true as far as the credits go, but it's also the diversity which makes this album such a fascinating listen.

		Gatton was such a genre-jumper that he never found a commercial niche; instead, he was the guitarist's guitarist, fluent and fluid in various forms of rock, country, jazz, and blues.
		DANNY GATTON was a technically GREAT player who excelled at every musical genre.
		Other than his prodigiously developed technique and mind-warping speed, GATTON did not have an immediately recognizable signature sound, a unique personal style (heck, even Tom Scholz of Boston had that!) and he was not the pioneer of any guitar innovations.

		Danny Gatton (1945-1994) was part fierce monster and part teddy bear.
		Gatton's rapid-fire runs on such pieces as "Funky Mama" are balanced by the subtler pleasures of his version of The Beach Boys' "In My Room." Sadly, Gatton was even more troubled than Brian Wilson, and the guitarist took his own life four years after the release of this album.
		One of the most gifted guitarists of the post-Sixties generation, Danny Gatton was revered among guitar fanatics but almost unknown outside that circle.

	Danny Gatton : Untouchable - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Other Gatton albums may be more cohesive, but Untouchable actually works nicely as a companion to the Portraits collection.
		The result is a typically diverting Gatton free-for-all; the first three tracks alone steer the listener through moody bop ("Poinciana," "One for Lenny's"), a tribute to late jazz guitarist Lenny Breau, and a storming R&B tune ("Ain't That Peculiar," which features a rousing Tommy Lepson vocal).
		But that's hardly possible with Danny Gatton, as the inspired interplay with his hornmen on Nelson Riddle's "Untouchables" theme shows.

		I spent a fair amount of time searching for a Danny Gatton CD and, to be honest, it was a little difficult deciding on something.
		During the course of searching I also realized the reviews are often of limited use, since it appears there is a small, but very zealous, group of Gatton's fans and friends who always come out and give each and every CD of his a glowing review and five-star rating.
		The guitar playing, supposedly Gatton's claim to fame, isn't all that impressive: More often than not, it is uninspiring and devoid of emotive power; technically it has moments, but without context that's little more than "guitar gymnastics" anyway.

		Gatton’s legend has only grown since October 1994, when he ended his life, aged 49, by self-inflicted gunshot wound at his southern Maryland home.
		According to Elliott, Gatton’s frustration over Hancock’s handling of the business side (“He got an office in Alexandria [Virginia], but didn’t have a phone for two or three months.”) also led him to pronounce the Fat Boys a dead issue by the summer of ’76.
		“Danny just figured it was another of those promises that never came true, until he read about it in the paper or heard it on the radio,” says Elliott.

		This album documents another fascinating, if overlooked aspect of Danny Gatton's musical career: Funhouse, his mid- to late-'80s sextet which also included trumpeter Chris Battistone and tenor saxophonists Phil Berlin and Bruce Swaim, rounded off by drummer Barry Hart and longtime bassist John Previti.
		The tapes had remained unmixed after the guitarist signed to Elektra Records, according to his mother, Norma, who released them on her NRG label after her son's 1994 death.

	Danny Gatton
		When Danny Gatton died at 49 from a self-inflicted gunshot wound on October 4, 1994 the curtain came down on a guitarist considered an unsung master of the instrument by his peers.
		While Danny Gatton was hardly known by the music buying public, the locals knew about him.
		Indeed, Danny became a fixture in Guitar Player's pages (September 1983; March 1989; November 1992; July 1993; November 1994; January 1995) and won its "Country Player Of The Year" award four straight times (1990 to 1994), although he never made an album in that genre!

		Guitar whiz Danny Gatton finally gets the major label treatment he has deserved for years, and turns in his most polished and tasteful work yet on 11 diverse instrumentals.
		But the mean tenor sax of Bill Holloman does prevail on a few cuts, and Danny never fails to amaze when he cuts loose.
		Gatton can still make my jaw drop, though he still meanders, and sometimes falls flat in his search for sympathetic material.

		Transformed into a compendium of Danny's musical influences, it simultaneously serves as a six minute mini-history of electrical guitar styles.
		"Sky King" is Danny's tribute to Billy Butler and saxophonist King Curtis, in which Gatton uses a Heinekin bottle as a slide at the end.
