It was mentioned on the facebook page of Jeffrey Apaka that his class mate Fred Lunt has passed away. Fred was a fine steel guitar player. A student and friend of the great David "Feet" Rogers. Fred recorded with the group Na Pali and spent time on tour with Taj Mahal.

This is sad news. Shocking, as he was about my age, much too young to go.

This is shocking news. Fred was a good friend and will surely be missed. Thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and daughters. Aloha, Bruddah Fred Crying or Very sad

I loved his cuts on the first "Made In Hawaii - The Hawaiian Steel Guitar" CD.

RIP Fred.

Here is a wonderful example of the steel guitar of Fred Lunt. To me it really demonstrates the influence of his teacher and friend David "Feet" Rogers.
