Lazy Lester
Lazy Lester
Story aired: Friday, August 24, 2007



The Louisiana swamp blues bubbled up from the cajun, zydeco and blues music of Southwest Louisiana. We talk with harmonica player and singer Leslie Johnson, otherwise known as "Lazy Lester," one of the few remaining musicians of the regional sound. The 66-year-old blues legend is on tour this summer and will be appearing at this weekend's Boston Blues Festival.
