Jimmy Raney
James Elbert Raney (20 August 1927 – 9 May 1995)〔Kernfield, Barry (Ed.): ''The New Grove Dictionary of Jazz''. London: Macmillan. 2nd ed. 2002, Vol. 3 p. 357〕 was an American jazz guitarist born in Louisville, Kentucky, most notable for his work from 1951 to 1952 and then from 1953 to 1954 with the Red Norvo trio (replacing Tal Farlow) and later, 1962 to 1963, with Stan Getz just as the Bossa Nova breaks out of Brazil. In 1954 and 1955 he won the ''Down Beat'' critics poll for guitar.〔(Down Beat Critics Poll )〕 Raney worked in a variety of jazz mediums, including cool jazz, bebop, post bop, hard bop and mainstream jazz.
In 1946 he worked for a time as guitarist with the Max Miller Quartet at Elmer's in Chicago, his first paying gig. Raney also worked in the Artie Shaw Orchestra and collaborated with Woody Herman for nine months in 1948. He also collaborated and recorded with Buddy DeFranco, Al Haig and later on with Bob Brookmeyer. In 1967 alcoholism and other professional difficulties led him to leave New York City and return to his native Louisville.〔(Classic Jazz guitar )〕 He resurfaced in the 1970s and also did work with his son Doug, who is also a guitarist.〔(All Music )〕
Raney suffered for thirty years from Ménière's disease, a degenerative condition that eventually led to near complete deafness in both ears, although this did not stop him from playing. He died of heart failure in Louisville on May 10, 1995. His obituary in the ''New York Times'' called him "one of the most gifted and influential postwar jazz guitarists in the world".〔(''NY Times'' )〕
