    [Portrait of Red Rodney, 400 Restaurant(?), New York, N.Y., ca. June 1946]
    Thence to 400 Restaurant, where lives Red Rodney, star swingster of Gene Krupa's stable. Red tries to make like Gillespie but is hampered tonsorially, by his mere 19 years and invisible red coloring. Pointing to his goatee, so none could miss, he answered poser thusly: "No doubt about it. Goatees strengthen your lip. And for more things than just playing trumpet." | Caption from Down Beat: Thence to 400 Restaurant, where lives Red Rodney, star swingster of Gene Krupa's stable.
