I bought a bunch of photos of Memphis soul/gospel artists a while back, but can't identify one of the people pictured. He looks familiar (and I'm prepared for embarrassment) but can anyone put a name to this person?

Thanks.

It is / was called a " Pompadour " , so effectively demonstrated by Richard Penniman ..........

The Gentleman in the photograph ? I seem to have seen it before , and was told it was Little Johnny Taylor .........

I agree, that was my thought when I first saw it.

no.gif I still reckon it's Ted Taylor ! I know he wasn't from the Memphis area but the very early Okeh stuff of his was recorded in Nashville wasn't it ?

I'm not too sure who the artist is but the cat sat on his head is called Truffle
