Charles Elliot Kynard
Profile:
Born February 20, 1933 in St. Louis (MO)
Died July 8, 1979 in Los Angeles (CA)
Hammond virtuoso and electric-bass player, Kynard didn’t become too famous for two reasons: he just played in his local L.A. instead of touring, and he recorded very few sessions. Nevertheless, his artistry was enormous and his recordings are true gems.
