"1941" picture

[edit]

The photo labelled "Count Basie Orchestra 1941" cannot be from 1941 as Herschel Evans, who's in the shot, died in 1939. In addition, it's not the Count Basie, despite the presence of Basie and Evans: Ray Bauduc on drums and Bob Haggart on bass mean that this must have been a jam session involving members of the Basie Orch and the Bob Crosby Orch. I have seen another photo from what was surely the same session, showing Eddie Miller sat alongside Evans. 195.59.205.62 (talk) 08:48, 9 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
