EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the essence of jazz drummer Ray McKinley as he performs in the Century Room of New York City's Hotel Commodore in January 1947. Taken by renowned photographer William Paul Gottlieb, the image transports us back to the golden age of jazz and the unique atmosphere of the era. McKinley, dressed in a sharp suit, focuses intently on his timpani, his expression a perfect blend of concentration and passion. The dramatic lighting and atmospheric setting add to the sense of excitement and energy that permeated jazz clubs during this time. The image is a testament to the enduring legacy of jazz music and the pivotal role it played in American culture during the 1940s. With its rich history and timeless appeal, this photograph is a must-have for any collection of jazz memorabilia or those interested in the history of American music and fashion.
