"I never get in a hurry; I'm never in a hurry," says Leslie Johnson of why he is called Lazy Lester during a recent phone interview from his home in Michigan. In 1957 he became Lazy Lester during a recording session with Lightnin' Slim. Record producer Jay Miller gave him the name after noticing his slow, lazy-like harmonica style. Lazy Lester also waived his performance fee and flew to Oz to help support the cause.
