Vernice "Bunky" Green´s big break came when he was hired in New York City by Charles Mingus as a replacement for Jackie McLean in the 1960s. His brief stint with the eccentric bass player made a deep impression. Mingus' sparing use of notation and his belief that there was no such thing as a wrong note had a lasting influence on Green's own style.
Originally strongly influenced by Charlie Parker, Green spent a period reassessing his style and studying, emerging with a highly distinctive sound that has deeply influenced a number of younger saxophonists, including Steve Coleman and Greg Osby.
Green gradually withdrew from the public eye to develop a career as a leading jazz educator. At JazzBaltica 2007 he had his on stage debut in Germany featuring his "Salzau Quartet" with Carsten Daerr, Eva Kruse and Nasheet Waits. That concert was released on CD in 2008 on Traumton records.
