The Wayne Henderson Interview

Welcome to a special edition of the JFS. my guest today was part of the Band called the Jazz Crusaders. Unlike most bands that form through connections, serendipity and recommendations my guest today joined forces with guys in his neighborhood in Houston. He knew Joe Sample when he was six years old. He went to his mama's house for meals and Joe did the same. Around the same time he linked up with Wilton Felder and Stix Hooper. This group had southern roots, loyalty was paramount, evolution was assumed, and being yourself was an afterthought. My guest was a key component to the group as a prolific song writer, trombone player and a onstage spokesman. The Freedom Sound on full display today with Wayne Henderson, welcome to the JFS!
