Biography
Arthur Resnick was born on 20 March 1941 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He studied classical piano with Sanford Margolis. Resnick became interested in jazz and played several Twin City clubs[2][3] before heading to San Francisco in 1968. Shortly after arriving in the Bay Area, he joined a psychedelic rock band, Salvation, who frequently opened for bands like the Doors, Jefferson Airplane, and Janis Joplin. After San Francisco, his focus turned to jazz, playing and teaching in New York.[4], San Diego, and Alaska [5]
In 1973, he recorded Jungleopolis, with Paul Lagos (drums), Willard Peterson (bass), and Bob Rockwell (clarinet, saxophone, flute).[6] The album was released by UK record label, Symposium Records, in March 1975 and in the US in February 1976.[7] Jungleopolis received a five-star review in Downbeat.[8] The same year saxophonist Irv Williams produced an album for singer Roberta Davis, featuring Art on piano. Resnick's brother Randy plays guitar on one song of the album.
Art lead his quartet with Bob Rockwell, Rufus Reid and Victor Lewis. In 1980 Art spent a month in Australia playing with trumpeter Freddie Hubbard. The band also opened for Freddy on those shows. In 1990, Art was playing with Gary Bartz in Spain. He lived, taught and played in San Diego, California. [9] He also lived in Portland.[10], and recently Saint Paul. In "Famous People Who've Met Me"[11] In his memoirs about discovering and managing Prince, Owen Husney mentioned the influence of Art and his brother Randy Resnick.
In 2021, Resnick was featured on the show Minnesota Jazz Legends: The Elders 2021.

change this rule
I believe the "full articles" rule to be counterproductive in the case of jazz musicians who have played with the most famous players because they are important and known in the jazz world. In many cases, editors have accepted far less referenced material, such as The_High_Spirits and in this article everything is verifyable. Having played with star players and well-known jazz names should be sufficient to deserve a page on wikipedia. If playing with three or more very big musical stars is not sufficient justification for appearing on this site, then the site is far less useful for research on musicians. If this rule is the metter of the law, then the law should be changed for musicians.
