The phenomenal Clifford Brown/Max Roach Quintet with Sonny Rollins in 1955. This line-up produced the crucial Sonny Rollins Plus 4 and Clifford Brown And Max Roach At Basin Street LPs. From left to right: Sonny Rollins, Clifford Brown (who was born on today’s date in 1930), Richie Powell , Max Roach, and George Morrow. Tragically Brown and Powell would die in a car crash about a year after this photo was taken.
