Featured on this program is Lester Young, one of the greatest tenor sax players of the classic era in jazz.
His cool, light tones and laid back style was much different than the full-tone sounds that Coleman Hawkins built in the 1930s.
Put on your walkin' shoes, too, because there's a medley of shoes, too.
