Please, Mr Dunn, swing it…

Bob Dunn, este circunspecto caballero con pinta de honrado dependiente, fue el más grande intérprete de steel guitar eléctrica que el mundo haya conocido, aparte de ser el primero en usar este instrumento en la música popular americana. Sus jazzísticos y deconstruidos punteos contribuyeron a dar forma a ese irresistible sonido que conocemos como Western Swing. Disfruten ahora de su genio en “St. Louis Blues” y “Sorry ‘I’ll Say I’m Sorry’”.
