File talk:Charlie Ventura, Curley Russell, Bill Harris, Ralph Burns, and Dave Tough, Three Deuces, New York, N.Y., ca. Apr. 1947 (William P. Gottlieb 00911).jpg

Not Curley Russell

The description states "unknown bassist" but for some reason the file name states that it is Curley Russell. The bassist is somewhat obscured but appears to be a bespectacled, very non-curly-haired white guy. Russell was, I believe, Afro-Trinidadian, possibly Afro-American, and I've seen no shots of him in glasses. Mutt Lunker (talk) Mutt Lunker (talk) 15:42, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
