Joe Kelly (musician)
Joe Kelly is an American Jazz musician.
Joe Kelly was a successful jazz musician in Chicago during the 1970s, frequently playing to a full room five nights a week. He headlined the band along with Barrett Deems, Quinn Wilson, Johnny Board, Mike Huniford, Paul Quinn and Larry Barr. Joe semi-retired from Jazz in the 1980s.
He began a second career playing post call at some of the bigger horse races around the country. However, his main post with the post call was at Arlington Park Race Track in Illinois. It is the brief "Boots and Saddles" tune and a little bit of jazz that has made bugler Joe Kelly a legend among horse racing fans across the country for more than twenty years.
