R.I.P.: Chuck Loeb (1955-2017)

(born Charles Samuel Loeb on December 07, 1955 in Nyack, New York, USA;
died on July 31st, 2017 in New York, NY, USA)

Completely devastated with the sad loss of my friend, guitarist extraordinaire Chuck Loeb, who died two hours ago after a long battle against cancer. 

Tom Jung (DMP founder) introduced us nearly 30 years ago, and since then I saw him developing a wonderful career. And what a fantastic discography - from Jim Hall to Larry Coryell, from Bob Mintzer to Michael Franks, from Stan Getz to Fourplay! Plus Donald Harrison, Till Brönner, Michel Camilo, Bob Dylan, Joe Farrell, the list goes on and on. 

My deepest condolences to Carmen and all his family. [He was married to singer Carmen Cuesta, father of Lizzy Loeb and Christina Loeb.]
