Gilbert John Mellé (31 December 1931 – 28 October 2004) was an American artist, jazz musician and film composer.[1][2]
Life and career
In the 1950s, Mellé created the cover art for albums by Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk and Sonny Rollins.[3] Mellé led a number of sessions recorded for the Blue Note and Prestige labels between 1952 and 1957.[3] He also appeared at the first Newport Jazz Festival, leading a band that also contained Joe Cinderella, Vinnie Burke, and Ed Thigpen.[3]
As a film and TV composer, Mellé was one of the first to use self-built electronic instruments, either alone or as an added voice among the string, wind, brass, and percussion sections of the orchestra.[4] Mellé died in Malibu, California on October 28, 2004.[3]
