“It’s like walking in to a Walmart to see Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads politely sharing Hendrix riffs”: Underrated guitar hero Danny Gatton to be honored with release of first new album in nearly 20 years

Danny Gatton.

Underrated electric guitar hero Danny Gatton is set to be honored with Danny Gatton and Funhouse Live at the Holiday Inn 1987 – the first new music release linked to the late guitar great in nearly 20 years.

Captured in one of the most unlikely places for a live album, the record finds the underrated six-string slinger at his best, tearing through 11 jazz standards.
