Baby Huey with Two Band Members

Image

Chicago R&B singer Baby Huey leaning against a car with his trumpeter, (likely Rick Marcotte) and conga player, (possibly Plato Jones) who is wearing an American flag print fringed vest, as well as two or three unidentified people with him. The car they are leaning on has a large dent in the drivers side door, and a white dog can be seen on the left side of the photograph near a van.
