These two jazz musicians and Billy Harper appeared at a Boston, Massachusetts jazz club, either Paul's Mall or the Jazz Workshop. I believe the leader of the group was drummer extraordinaire Art Blakey.
Update (4/16/11): I believe I now have the names for four of the members of this quintet- Art Blakey, leader and drums; Billy Harper, sax; Julian Priester, trombone, and Victor Sproles, bass. So Julian, Billy, and Victor, if you should see these pictures, who is this piano player?
Undate: (7/25/11): Thanks to Michael Weiss, we now know that the piano player is Ronnie Matthews. Thanks Michael!
