Ferdinand "Jelly Roll" Morton (September 20, 1885 – July 10, 1941) was an American ragtime andearly jazz pianist, bandleader and composer. Widely recognized as a pivotal figure in early jazz, Morton claimed, in self-promotional hyperbole, to have invented jazz outright in 1902. Morton was the first serious composer of jazz, naming and popularizing the "Spanish tinge" of exotic rhythms and penning such standards as "Wolverine Blues", "Black Bottom Stomp", and "Buddy Bolden's Blues". 64Kbps M3U (Lo-Fi) (1.47 MB)64Kbps MP3 ZIP NEW!VBR ZIP (2.63 MB)VBR ZIP The great Jelly Roll Morton, 3rd from the left, with Ada "Bricktop" Smith to his left.
