About the book

"Danny Gatton was a guitar virtuoso known for his wide stylistic range. With a musical vocabulary that included country, gospel, rockabilly, soul, and standards, he dubbed his own style "Redneck Jazz." Hailed as the world's best "unknown" guitar player by both Rolling Stone and Guitar Player, Gatton was a player's player who never received popular acclaim but who continues to influence guitarists everywhere. His personal demons and his struggle to reach a wider audience while staying true to his own muse proved too much for him, and in 1994 he took his own life. Drawing from first-hand interviews with dozens of friends, family members, and fellow musicians, Unfinished Business places Gatton's musical contributions in context, and documents his influence on those peers who admired him most."--Jacket.
