John Purvis (December 11, 1906 – March 30, 1962) was an American jazz musician. Purvis was best known as a trumpet player and the composer of Dismal Dan and Down Georgia Way. He was one of the earliest trumpeters to incorporate the innovations pioneered by Louis Armstrong in the late 1920s. He also played trombone and on occasion a number of other instruments professionally (including harp).

  • Jack Purvis (* 11. Dezember 1906 in (Indiana); † 30. März 1962 in San Francisco) war ein amerikanischer Jazztrompeter (auch Posaune, Klavier, Gesang und weitere Instrumente, sowie Komposition). Am bekanntesten wurde er laut Digby Fairweather dafür, dass er 1929 bei Okeh das Stück „Copyin’ Louis“ einspielte, das „aus lauter Versatzstücken von Armstrongs Titeln bestand. Dazu brauchte man zu einer Zeit, in der Armstrong auf der Höhe seines technischen Könnens war, nicht nur Nerven, sondern auch Fingerfertigkeit.“ (de)
