2007 NAMM Show Performance By Conti


Background:
Robert Conti was born in South Philadelphia. His interest in jazz guitar began in 1958 at the age of twelve. Conti is mostly self taught, however, he credits Sgro for inspiring him. After graduating high school, Conti spent the next three years performing throughout the United States and Canada with a variety of show groups out of the Philly area.

In 1970, Conti moved from music to securities business as an account executive ... winning a number of financial industry awards. The passion was short lived, he traded his three piece suits and returned to music and several albums followed.

Later on in his career he was invited to perform at a jazz festival in Southern California, where he made an acquaintance with a music fan who was an executive with Beverly Hills film producer, Dino De Laurentiis. Two years later, that casual acquaintance resulted in Conti accepting a position with the De Laurentiis organization. In the summer of 1988, Conti relocated to Irvine, California, a pristine and affluent community just south of Los Angeles. Shortly after his relocation, he had the misfortune of a serious injury from an office accident that required months of extensive medical treatment.

Unfortunately, Conti's business ventures in the 70's and 80's, and that ten year hotel engagement took a toll on his music career, as jazz guitar aficionados outside of Southern California were deprived of hearing Conti on any new recordings after the release of "Comin' On Strong!" in 1990.
