Duke Ellington
Eponymous bassist Jimmy Blanton died in 1942, aged just 23, but left a lasting mark on the music world. While playing with Duke Ellington, he liberated the double bass from its traditional role as an accompaniment instrument. Ray Brown, Blanton's student in his younger years, continued his work and, together with Oscar Pettiford, developed the bass as a solo instrument; their work had a significant influence on bebop as it developed into a mature style.
