Sad news, and it came just as I was about to post his picture on the photo thread. Hank Crawford (Joe Rosen) His melody lingers on...

Anyone know why they would be promoting him? A movie, perhaps?

Thanks, Jack and Chuck. I knew that didn't look like Buck, but that's what the Columbia photo had printed on it, so I thought it might be how he looked in '38. You confirmed my suspicion and I have ade the correction. I can always rely on the eagle eyes of O. Anybody growing tired of all these photos?

Thanks for the bust, Michael—almost hated to make the correction. Chuck, to me, the driver looks more like a throwback to your city's past. Here are four photos by Lawrence Marx from the famous 1938 Benny Goodman Carnegie Hall concert—yes, the one that got devastatingly Schaaped in CD form. Gene Krupa, Babe Russin, Allan Reuss, George Koenig, Red Ballard, Goodman, Vernon Brown, and Art Rollini. Lionel Hampton, Goodman, and Gene Krupa. The jam session: Gene Krupa, Goodman, Cootie Williams, Vernon Brown, and Johnny Hodges.
