Wynton Kelly是一位帶著濃厚藍調(diào)的樂手，總是將有點黏又不會太黏的彈奏方式加到swing里頭， 彈到高亢時會總是拖慢速度，慢個半拍，令人不由自主的掉入他所設(shè)的陷阱之中，即興時也不拖泥帶水，短短的，卻又令人印象深刻。 曾任Miles Davis〈小喇吧手〉所組的樂團鋼琴手，也和當代音樂大師Bill Evans合作，是一位在爵士樂壇占有一席之地的樂手。 Light my fire是一首非常輕快的曲子，不是艱澀難懂的曲子，聽了會有翩翩起舞的感覺，不由自主的掉進音樂的漩渦里頭， 仔細聆聽曲子時會發(fā)現(xiàn)同樣的旋律一再的出現(xiàn)，即使到即興時也還有相似的味道， 并且聽到藍調(diào)音階及大量的顫音，并且僅只使用了三種樂器--鋼琴、鼓、BASS，也就是所謂的三重奏， 聽曲子，不由的也感受到Wynton Ke的喜悅，聽音樂吧！

A superb accompanist loved by Miles Davis and Cannonball Adderley, Wynton Kelly was also a distinctive soloist who decades later would be a strong influence on Benny Green. He grew up in Brooklyn and early on played in R&B bands led by Eddie Cleanhead Vinson, Hal Singer, and Eddie Lockjaw Davis. Kelly, who recorded 14 titles for Blue Note in a trio (1951), worked with Dinah Washington, Dizzy Gillespie, and Lester Young during 1951-1952. After serving in the military, he made a strong impression with Washington (1955-1957), Charles Mingus (1956-1957), and the Dizzy Gillespie big band (1957), but he would be most famous for his stint with Miles Davis (1959-1963), recording such albums with Miles as Kind of Blue, At the Blackhawk, and Someday My Prince Will Come. When he left Davis, Kelly took the rest of the rhythm section (bassist Paul Chambers and drummer Jimmy Cobb) with him to form his trio. The group actually sounded at its best backing Wes Montgomery. Before his early death, Kelly recorded as a leader for Blue Note, Riverside, Vee-Jay, Verve, and Milestone.
