0210 Leroy Kirkland

Leroy Kirkland Geburtstagsstory (Leroy Kirland 10.2.1906)

Der Komponist, Arrangeur und Gitarrist ist nicht nur bei der Band von Alan Freed. Er startet seine Karriere als Gitarrist in der Band von Cootie Williams und schreibt Duzende R&B-Klassiker.

Unsere 2h werden wie immer zu knapp, seine Erfolge ausreichend zu würdigen, aber wir versuchen's.

Sorry this year for Chick Webb, Nathaniel Mayer
