The melody of Christmas - Jazz
With the rhythms of the holidays, Christmas and all, images of note should ring from your walls. Known for his good cheer and holiday clicks, Ted Williams photographed America’s Jazz greats performing and at rest. From Mahalia to Miles, Count to the Duke, Williams saw to it that few were left out. As the last minute rings before Santa comes prancing, Ted Williams' soulful jazz photographs can keep 'em dancin. Whatever your fancy, we wish you our best and leave you a hummin’ with Count Basie and the rest. Happy Holidays from The Art Quarterly.

Zow! Thanks so much for posting the links to those photographs by Ted Williams. What a joy to see all those familiar jazz faces. And the pics are so clean and evocative. I'm a drummer, so I was particularly interested in Rich and Blakey. But I gotta say, young Sarah Vaughn sitting at her dressing table and the profile of the inimitable Dinah Washington are just wonderful to see.
