The world's greatest guitarist meets the the world's greatest organist. This is one scorching CD.
Editorial review
This was a logical matchup. Danny Gatton was a high-powered and very versatile guitarist who could play virtually any modern style. His tonal distortions and use of feedback were impressive but he could also swing as hard as anyone around. The same could be said of organist Joey DeFrancesco and, together with bassist John Previti and drummer Timm Biery, the lead voices romp on a variety of fairly basic material with lots of blues and a few standards. Although no new revelations are offered, the joyful chancetaking of Danny Gatton kept the music from ever becoming predictable or too relaxed; he certainly challenges DeFrancesco throughout this set. ~ Scott Yanow, All Music Guide
Bio / Background
DANNY GATTON/JOEY DeFRANCESCO
RELENTLESS
BIG MO 20232
The guitar wizardry of DANNY GATTON and the Harmnond B-3 virtuosity of JOEY DeFRANCESCO join
together to create the musical tour de force Relentless on Big Mo Records. From the jazz classics (Count
Basie's "Broadway", Wayne Shorter's "The Chess Players", Thelonious Monk's "Well, You Needn't") to the
DANNY GATTON-penned originals, the two improvisational giants push each others musical boundaries, cre-
ating an exhilarating, flat out, no-holds-barred, soul-drenched musical expedition.
Guitarist DANNY GATTON has been a local guitar legend in his native Washington, D.C.-area since the early
'70s. "A lot of people think DANNY GATTON is the best guitar player alive", declared the Washington Post. A
student of vintage American music, GATTON has always been hard to pigeon-hole, blending jazz, country,
blues and rock. He toured briefly with country legend Roger Miller and rockabilly great Robert Gordon.
