Denny Wright
Denys Justin Wright (6 May 1924 – 8 February 1992), better known as Denny Wright, was a jazz and skiffle guitarist who performed with Stephane Grappelli, Lonnie Donegan, Johnny Duncan (bluegrass musician), Digby Fairweather, Ella Fitzgerald, Billy Eckstine, Fapy Lafertin, Russ Conway, Bireli Lagrene, Humphrey Littleton, Nigel Kennedy and his great friend George Shearing. A session musician for many years, he frequently acted as arranger and "fixer" for recording sessions. Wright was a prolific jazz and orchestra composer. He led many bands, ranging from small jazz ensembles through night club bands to full size orchestras. In addition to jazz and skiffle, he worked with Latin American and Jamaican bands, including Kenny Graham's Afro-Cubists. He contributed to swing bands and orchestras, frequently playing with the Carl Barriteau orchestra, the Decca Records house band under Phil Green, and, on occasion, the Glenn Miller band. Denny Wright was voted the 1980 BBC Jazz Society Musician of the Year. Although best known as a guitarist, his favourite instrument was the piano - the only musical instrument he would ever play at home. Travellin' Blues by Johnny Duncan and the Bluegrass Boys feature Wright's piano playing.
