Legends Mix

Today's show comes with a little confession that I had to make. I'm not revealing details on here, you'll get it when you listen. They come with finding the name of the saxophonist of a group that's a bit obscure despite that they were elected best small combo in a readers poll of a respected African-American newspaper.

Also in this show: a good lawyer, the godfather of New Orleans Rhythm & Blues and the group of identical twins - and two more brothers. And more.
