Charlie Hunter and Bobby Previte as Groundtruther: Altitude
by Troy Collins
After three years and as many records, drummer Bobby Previte and guitarist Charlie Hunter bring their experimental trio project Groundtruther to a triumphant conclusion. Previte and Hunter have invited a rotating third member to play on each release; Latitude (Thirsty Ear, 2004) featured saxophonist Greg Osby, while Longitude (Thirsty Ear, 2005) starred DJ Logic. Keyboardist John ...
Charlie Hunter and Bobby Previte as Groundtruther: Altitude
by John Kelman
Like a three act play, guitarist Charlie Hunter and percussionist Bobby Previte's Groundtruther project saves the best for last. Latitude (Thirsty Ear, 2004) teamed them with intrepid saxophonist Greg Osby and while both Hunter and Previte have never been technologically challenged, it represented, individually, their most extreme integration of processing/sampling with conventional instrumentation. Likewise, Longitude (Thirsty ...
The Charlie Hunter Trio: Mistico
by Doug Collette
On the CD tray photo of Mistico, all three members of The Charlie Hunter Trio are shown laughing heartily with each other. It's an appropriate picture, given the joy they exude playing together on this CD of original music by the guitarist/bandleader, which suits the evocative cover art and album title. The Charlie Hunter Trio sounds ...
Charlie Hunter Trio: Mistico
by Chris May
On Mistico, Charlie Hunter finally, after a couple of near misses, gets in touch with his inner rock guitarist. The disc's immediate predecessors--Copperopolis (Ropeadope, 2006) and Longitude (Thirsty Ear, 2005)--inhabited similarly full-on visceral territory, but here those albums' funk quotients are reduced to practically zero in favor of dirty, confrontational, rock 'n' roll. Nothing on Mistico ...

Charlie Hunter – Chinna Smith – Ernest Ranglin: Innovation!
by AAJ Italy Staff
Charlie Hunter e la sua chitarra a otto corde incontrano due mostri sacri delle sei corde in area jazz-reggae, due giamaicani dalle storie diversissime ma in qualche modo complementari. Basti dire che Ernest Ranglin (nato nel 1932) fu uno dei pioneri dello ska e trovò la fama a Londra nei primi anni sessanta, affermandosi come chitarrista ...
Charlie Hunter Trio: Copperopolis
by Chris M. Slawecki
Charlie Hunter's first trio record since 2003's Friends Seen and Unseen balances his talents as a composer (he wrote or co-wrote every track except for the set-ending take of Monk's “Think of One ), as a bandleader, as a band member interplaying with drummer Derrek Phillips and John Ellis (tenor saxophone, bass clarinet, Wurlitzer organ and ...
Charlie Hunter Trio: Copperopolis
by AAJ Staff
First-time encounters with Charlie Hunter in a live setting usually leave listeners numb with the realization of how much music Hunter can make with one instrument. It's a sobering experience to see him play melody, chordal accompaniment and bass lines all at once on his custom eight-string guitar--which is obviously a most unnatural feat, even though ...
