Lisa Henry sits behind Ida, mostly obscured by Ida, and is mostly out of the right side of the photograph. Claude "Fiddler" Williams stands as he leans forward slightly while playing his fiddle. Next to Claude is Stan Kessler playing his trumpet. Ahmad Alaadeen stands next to Stan playing a soprano saxophone. Gerald Dunn is mostly out of the left side of the photograph playing a saxophone. Gerald's saxophone is obscured by Tyrone Clark's double bass. Tyrone Clark is completely out of the right side of the photograph. Chris Clarke is out of the right side of the photograph but his fingers can be seen playing an electric piano. The date, "9 15 '01," is imprinted by the camera on the bottom right-hand corner of the photograph.
