    Trumpeter Bunk Johnson at left; guitarist/composer/blues singer Leadbelly at right. Clarinetist George Lewis seen sitting at bottom left; string bass player Alcide "Slow Drag" Pavageau in background behind Leadbelly's microphone. This is the band of New Orleans musicians assembled by Bunk and Bill Russell in New Orleans when Bunk came out of retirement and which he later took up to New York City, with Leadbelly added.

    Thanks, Infrogmation! It's helpful to know who's who in the photo, so I added notes to this. Feel free to help us add notes to other photos in the set!

  • Early Rain said:
    The resonator guitar is a Del Vecchio, made in Brazil I think. They do look different than other resos, but Brown's seems to be more or less unmodified.
