These are two pics from a set of 5. The other three in the set, for context's sake, are Miles, Diz & Mingus. Anybody know who these two are?

Er, is the second Billie Holiday?

No...actually I think it's Abbey Lincoln.

Googled "miles dizzy mingus photography" and pulled up the photog's site.

The first one's an early shot of Denny Lethargy.

I'm guessing the first is Lionel Hampton

Yeah, looks like Abbey Lincoln. I saw an Abbey Lincoln looking-woman in a coffee shop once a few years back and now am convinced it was her and that I should have gone up to her and embarrassed myself.

I don't think the first one is Lionel Hampton, but he does look very familiar.

You guys nailed it, it's Abbey & Horace. Thanks!

I love this place.
