Gwynne's distinctive voice is familiar through recordings and radio. He is one of the prime narrators on the 1971 Elektra Records album, "A Child's Garden Of Grass (A Pre-Legalization Comedy)."[1]
In the late 1970s and into the 80s, Gwynne joined Phil Austin of the Firesign Theatre and comic Frazer Smith as the multi-voiced three-man cast of an improvisational surrealist comedy radio show, "Hollywood Niteshift," first on KROQ and later on KLOS, both in Los Angeles.[2]
Gwynne was the son of band leader Frankie Kaye.[3]
