If the photograph was taken on that date, Clifford Brown was no longer living. He died on June 26, 1956.

Count me in for Clifford Brown.

The Continental restaurant in Norfolk, VA, June 18, 19 or 20, 1956.  Musicians:  Clifford Brown (trumpet), Max Roach (drums), Sonny Rollins (tenor sax), Richie Powell (piano), George Morrow (bass).

Clifford Brown

If the photograph was taken on August 30, 1956, Brownie was no longer living. He died on June 26, 1956.

Taken from The Lenox School of Jazz by Jeremy Yudkin

There were two recordings made around the date of the photo.  The Modern Jazz Quartet at Music Inn (Atlantic 1247), guest artist Jimmy Giuffre, recorded August 28, 1956 and The Concert at Music Inn (Atlantic 1298), recorded August 30th.

Other guests at the Inn at that time include Herbie Mann, Pee Wee Russell, Rex Stuart, Teddy Charles, Oscar Pettiford, Quincy Jones, Willie 'The Lion' Smith, Ray Brown, Dick Katz and George Wein.  There was also a panelist session with Charles Mingus, Max Roach, Sonny Rollins, & Dizzy Gillespie.  MJQ was in residency.

Funny, there's no mention of Miles.

Maybe it's just some guy.

You're could be right. It could be just someone. Who's the woman with her back to the photographer? She's overlooked.   

The photo was posted on a Facebook group run by Loren Schoenberg. The question was, "Does anyone know who is the guy on the left is?" It could by a non musician.

Didn't Melba Liston have short hair like that?
