My band buddy asked me to identify the three trombonist playing with Miles Davis on this 1959 video of "So What", his all time favorite.
I only recognize Frank Rosolino.
Really lame trombone part;...So What////So What////So What////, no trombone solo ?!*&

It looks like JJ Johnson and Kai Winding in the middle and on the left, but I'm not positive on the ID. Might be a good start to comprare pictures of them from that time to this video.

OK, so at the time Miles was using Bill Elton or Dick Hixon(left), Jimmy Cleveland (center), and Frank Rehak (right)?

Not 100% sure on the the guy with the goatee could be Frank Rehak. I'mpretty sure the other two are Jimmy Cleveland and Bill Harris.
