John Ore

John Ore (b. December 17, 1933) is an American jazz bassist.

Ore attended the New School of Music in Philadelphia from 1943-46, studying cello, and followed this with studies on bass at Juilliard.

In the 1950s, he worked with Tiny Grimes, George Wallington, Lester Young, Ben Webster, Coleman Hawkins, Elmo Hope, and Bud Powell. From 1960 to 1963 he played in Thelonious Monk's quartet, and then with the Double Six of Paris in 1964. Later in the 1960s he played again with Powell and also recorded with Teddy Wilson. In the 1970s he worked with Earl Hines. He was with the Sun Ra Arkestra in 1982. Since then, he has receded from the scene, and never recorded an album as a leader.
