Lee Canady: Clifford Brown & James Moody & Lester Young & John Coltrane & Duke Ellington & Max Roach
Lester Young was known as "The President!" — Here is the FUNNIEST reminder of that FACT! :—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:— When the time comes to seek a way to RELAX, turn on the Legendary Lee Canady and watch and listen and laugh at Lee's reminiscing. :—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:— In this edition of "Listen In With Lee" (I realized later that the Thelonious Monk and John Coltrane track was not formally noted in the title card to this video [I suppose I was descriptive but not exhaustive in my efforts in making the start and end title card copy]), Lee Canady was like coffee creamer regarding his success in guessing Jazz greats played nearly at random for the man (Lee was "half and half"). Ne'ertheless, Lee lit up the room *I* was in with his searching for the real name that the nickname, "The President," connected with (Lester Young was nicknamed by "Lady Day" [Billie Holiday] as "The President," and in this video, Lee tells us why). :—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:—:— You might rethink these songs after falling for them in the way that Lee knows them, because Lee was contemporaneous with many of the timeless artists featured in this all-too-short sitdown (and listen) with the Legendary Lee Canady.
I will pray for America. Please pray for me. God Bless you.

Vivify yourself with this charming exchange between an octogenarian and a tricenarian over classic jazz masters. You will laugh uncontrollably and gleam with joy on account of this all-too-rare pure and decent video.
——————————
There is no money for Lee or for me in a video like this, because the copyright holders of the music take the lot of the ad revenue on account of their music playing during this video. It is too bad, though, because of two reasons (two reasons of many I could list):
1: The now-dead featured musicians would likely appreciate this effort to get their name and worthiness of fame out to new minds and ears and eyes, and this video (and others like it) is blocked in Russia (I would assume this is due to the present war Russia is having with Ukraine [and I would assume that the dead Jazz greats that are being now censored decades after their death because of some war that is FAR removed from their time and is not associated with their art whatsoever are rolling in their graves that their music is not free to reverberate across the earth on its own terms])
2: It took me north of twenty hours JUST to assemble the visuals for the green screen (it took even longer to edit this video). It took even, even longer to put together this video's audio and video. It took even, even, even longer to shoot this video. It took even, even, even, even longer to write the script and prepare otherwise (download music; talk LOTS with the Great Mr. Canady; research all sorts of topics related to and not related to the obvious areas of conversation I could explore with Lee; etc.)
Should you see these videos I make and find yourself at once both rich and generous, direct your love towards me, and please multiply your original intended gift to stand in the place of all those that had the same feeling and ability but stopped short of giving (and especially for the many more that would give even more than you would dare to imagine giving but could not afford half of what you are giving). Where there is smoke there is fire, but where great art is made, hardly is there ever due recompense in due time. Please make the difference, be the change, and spare some change for this poor bloke that makes the content you make use of once in a while or more often than that. Thank you.
