It
didn't take long before Blue Note picked
up on the growing talent of the 8-string guitarist
after the release of the first Charlie
Hunter Trio record and signed him to their
prestigious jazz label. The cover is modeled after
a Horace Parlan album on Blue Note from
1960 called Speakin' My Piece. Why did
Hunter title his record Bing, Bing, Bing?
Charlie responds with a grin, "I don't have any
idea. We just like the sound of the word, 'bing'."
