Michael Fitzgerald Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Man, at this point, I'd pay the $8 just to get the answer to who's in the photo. I've asked enough people to look at it - they think it's a game - "Gee, Mike, I don't know - I give up. Who is it?" That's why I'm ASKING!!!! Mike Quote
BERIGAN Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 If we make the image bigger, and fuzzier, someone will know the answer then... Quote
BERIGAN Posted August 5, 2004 Report Posted August 5, 2004 Say, that's not Shorty Rogers, is it???? Quote

Д.Д. Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 The alto player looks like Sony Simmons to me. Quote
Jim R Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 (edited) For some reason, looking at the trumpet player made me think of Ira Sullivan. I had trouble finding photos to compare, but in terms of his head shape, hair, and his build, I think this photo of Ira compares well: I'll admit it's a bit of a shot in the dark, but wtf... ===== That might help to explain the extra sax(es)... ===== Plus, he was a Florida resident...

sidewinder Posted August 6, 2004 Report Posted August 6, 2004 (edited) I'll go along completely with JohnS's comments. The altoist doesn't look at all to me like Harriott, different hairline (I'd say he looked more like Marion Brown). Nor does he look like Harold McNair, the other obvious possible UK candidate of this vintage. Jimmy Deuchar from this timeframe was a much more slender individual, looked nothing like the trumpeter on this pic (I'm basing my comments on a 'Jazz 625' video with him in the lineup from 1964). The drummer also looks nothing like Phil Seamen, who had a very, very wirey build with pale face and lightish hair. If anything the rest of the band members look of Mediterranean origin - Italy perhaps (check out that bassist). In terms of vintage I'd put this one around 1968-1970..(didn't Brown live in Europe for a couple of years in the late 60s?) Edited August 6, 2004 by sidewinder Quote
