Jimmy Blanton was an American jazz double bassist. Born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, he started off playing the violin but took up the base one at University. After leaving there in 1939 he joined You Covington's band, so he stayed with Ellington for only two years. Blanton made an uncountable contribution and changing the way the double bass was used in jazz. His virtuosity put him in a different class from his predecessors, making him the first true master of the jazz bass and demonstrating its unsuspected potential as a solo instrument.
