Drummer Philly Joe Jones was one of many musicians to sing his praises, stating that Kelly \"puts down flowers behind a soloist. He never wanted to steal in. He just put together the right things.\" Miles Davis called Kelly \"the light for a cigarette. He lights the fire and he keeps it going,\" whilst Cannonball Adderley dubbed him \"the world's greatest accompanist for a soloist.\" Kelly performed with a vast array of jazz greats over the years, including Charles Mingus, Benny Golson, Art Blakey and Lee Morgan, as well as repeated spells with the bands of Washington and Gillespie, and even playing bass on a track from vocalist Abbey Lincoln's That's Him!, after regular bassist Paul Chambers reportedly fell asleep in the studio following an extended drinking session. In January 1959, Kelly joined the band of Miles Davis, famously getting the gig after sitting in when previous pianist Red Garland was late for a club date. His work with Davis would eventually go on to be his best known, and included his exceptional performance on the song 'Freddy Freeloader' on Kind Of Blue, the best-selling jazz record of all time. This 4 CD collection, presented in digitally remastered format, contains undoubtedly the finest recordings of a criminally underrated musician. Tragically losing his life before he had the chance to develop himself as a solo force, he still single-handedly managed to change what it meant to be a sideman, expertly holding together the bands of every leader he worked with. This compilation, featuring almost five hours of music in total, is a fitting testament to one of the unsung heroes of jazz and will hopefully assist in keeping Wynton Kelly's name alive and to reach new generations of fans for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCherokee 3:10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrazy He Calls Me 3:15\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlue Moon 3:11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBorn to Be Blue 3:28\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoonlight in Vermont 3:29\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThere Will Never Be Another You 3:05\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Found a New Baby 2:55\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGood-Bye 2:25\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOut of the Past 6:28 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReunion 7:21 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVenetian Breeze 5:42 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHymn to the Orient 4:15 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNamely You 4:49 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlues on Down 11:37 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallad Medley 1 11:00 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBallad Medley 2 12:29 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhisper Not 7:11 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAction 7:12 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDark Eyes 5:59 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrong Man 5:17 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIll Wind 4:25 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Explain 5:36 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou Can't Get Away 6:24 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKelly Blue 10:45 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoftly, As in a Morning Sunrise 6:31 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn Green Dolphin Street 4:44 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWillow Weep for Me 6:07 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep It Moving 7:33 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOld Clothes 7:40 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWrinkles 7:55 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMama G 7:29 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJune Night 8:08 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat I Know 7:46 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSydney 3:50 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSomeday My Prince Will Come 3:02 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChar's Blues 5:37 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperance 7:32 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeird Lullaby 7:12 3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn Stage 5:14 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSkatin' 5:49 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePot Luck 6:49 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCome Rain or Come Shine 5:55 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMake the Man Love Me 3:40 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutumn Leaves 6:12 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSurrey with the Fringe on Top 3:50 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJoe's Avenue 2:52 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSassy 5:12 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLove I've Found You 2:37 4\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGone with the Wind 4:14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"541","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50563282174248,"sku":"82356466822","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/3055958.jpg?v=1763985166","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/kelly-wynton-nine-complete-albums-cd-2356466822","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
