Lazy Lester - I’m Your Breadmaker, Baby

Lazy Lester (aka Leslie Johnson) has been called a “National Treasure,“ the “High Sheriff of Louisiana“ and “a nut.“ As one of the key creators of the South Louisiana swamp blues sound in the 1950s, Lester has been often imitated but never duplicated. Blues fans worldwide prize his early singles on the Excello label that were recorded in Lake Charles, Louisiana.
