TRS Exclusive: Interview with One of DC's best Saxophones - Elijah Easton

Long ago (April 2023, sometime), TRS sat down with Elijah Easton, one of DC's best saxophone players to talk about a little bit of everything. Sadly, the interview was nearly ruined by technology (tricknology) and was shelved for almost a year. After a little downtime, Leon worked tirelessly to recover what he could and bring it to the Record Spinners. Check it out! Email: therecordspinnerpodcast@gmail.com with suggestions, questions, etc.
