Doug Raney
The son of legendary guitarist Jimmy Raney, Doug Raney was understandably heavily influenced by his father. An impressive soloist, he utilized almost identical full tones, crisp chording, and fluid voicings. He made his first recording with his father and Al Haig in the mid-'70s, then did duo dates with his dad later in the decade. Raney built a particularly sizable discography on the SteepleChase label, beginning in the '70s and extending nearly to the end of the '90s. He recorded with Chet Baker and Bernt Rosengren, and played in Horace Parlan's band. Raney lived in Denmark for a large portion of his career, and died of heart failure in Copenhagen in May 2016 at the age of 59.
