Title
[Portrait of Barney Bigard, Miriam Abramson, and Joe Marsala, Turkish Embassy, Washington, D.C., 193-] [photograph]
Clarinet: Barney Bigard. Great as the Duke's band still is and fine as is his replacement (Jimmy Hamilton), Barney's free-riding clarinet is still sorely missed by Ellington fans. Here's a pre-war shot I came across showing Bigard giving the evil eye to Goodman, Russell and other assorted competitors
