The First Monterey Jazz Festival in 1958 – Voices of East Anglia

In the photo with Sonny Rollins with the MC raising up his hands, who is the trumpet player next to Sonny? Ray Draper is in two photos, we know he was at the Festival with Max.

Should be Booker Little, but kinda looks like/dressed more like Miles? But no record of Miles being there.

I saw that after. There are no other trumpet players on the list who could be the one in that photo. But then, the list is not complete. Booker and George Coleman are listed, but not Max's other sidemen, Ray Draper and Art Davis. Or did Booker and George also lead their own groups and the above is a list of leaders? Highly unlikely.
