That's a pretty tough picture to recognize because of her age, but I'm pretty sure that it's Marilyn Horne, the great American opera diva.
In case I'm right, I'll go ahead and post one...

Not as easy as you may think @GulfportDoc For some odd reason, when I first looked at the photo and saw the beard, I thought it may have been Al Hirt. As I'd never seen him before........On a diet.
I even went to YouTube and listened to Java, with its inane yet catchy 'riff' .
Then I somehow came to my senses and saw the flute. And I figured; this couldn't be Al Hirt at all. No Sir.
Much more likely it's:
James Galway.

Parenthetically, Al Hirt and I both went to the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music. He started in 1940, 22 years before I..
He was a great trumpeter. You may not know that a good trumpet player is always in demand; almost more than any other instrument.~Doc
Don't be too hard on us now.......

Again. I am impressed @GulfportDoc. ( As you know by now, I love these' behind the scenes' stories. ) Wonder if Al ever paid a visit to the Conservatory after he became well known.
And I didn't know trumpet players were in so much demand. Wonder if it's b/c there's less of them, or if it' s an exceptionally hard instrument to master.
Actually, while listening to Java,, I could easily hear that he was a highly skilled musician. You could hear a few licks where he was trying to break loose out of the simple tune; it was sort of like listening to Miles Davis do a guest solo in the Chicken Dance tune.
OK, my friend, I am posting one that should be very easy. Easy as apple pie .
Easy as an apple falling off a tree.

I suspect a little of both reasons.

Hirt probably made more money than any other performing trumpet player besides Satchmo, Doc Severinsen, or perhaps Herb Alpert (Tijuana Brass, A&M Records).

i don't know about anyone else, but the one you said that's easy as an apple falling off a tree rings no bells with me...musician? singer? solo artist? part of a group?
