Robert Aaron (born Robert Arron Vineberg; November 13, 1955) is a Canadian jazz musician.[14]
According to John Leland of the New York Times "Mr. Aaron played flute, saxophone, clarinet and piano, then taught himself guitar, trumpet, bassoon, French horn and other instruments."[15]
He performed for rapper Wyclef Jean's band from 1998 to 2008.[14]
Robin Caulden of Press-Republican said "He's played with everybody — Afrika Bambataa, B52s, Blondie, Chic, David Bowie, Heavy D, James Chance and The Contortions, RZA, Stetsasonic, William Vivanco and Wu-Tang Clan."[16]
In 1981, he first started work with James Chance for the group James White and the Blacks; and has toured with him since in Europe and Japan.[15]
He played sax on David Bowie's 1983 hit "Let's Dance".[13][17]
In 2010, Aaron released his album Trouble Man,[14] which Michael Daly of the Daily Beast called "artistically adventurous but commercially unsuccessful".[18]
Folk singer Eric Andersen, who used Aaron on several albums as a producer and performer, described him as "Absolutely dedicated. He lived for his art."[15]
