From the veteran vibes Chuck Redd we rocket into this week's episode of Neon Jazz. From there, we peer into the influences into Chuck's life with cats like Charlie Byrd and Count Basie. We take a good look into the life and music of Paul Serrato and Ashley Pezzotti and pay respects to a couple of artist that left us recently, Leon Redbone and Lawrence Leathers. Finally, we get some licks in from Godwin Louis and Slam Stewart.
