A self-taught guitarist who later became an instructor, Ted Dunbar's pithy riffs, taut solos and accompaniment have been featured in hard bop, soul jazz, jazz-rock and free situations. Dunbar played trumpet and guitar at Texas Southern in the mid and late '50s. He worked with Arnett Cobb, Don Wilkerson and Joe Turner. Dunbar studied and played with Dave Baker at Indiana in the early '60s, sometimes subbing for Wes Montgomery. He moved to New York in the mid-'60s, and performed and recorded with Gil Evans in the '70s, as well as Tony Williams' Lifetime and Frank Foster.
