Lazy Lester - Sugar Coated Love

Lazy Lester (born Leslie Carswell Johnson, June 20, 1933) is an American blues musician who sings and plays the harmonica and guitar. His career has spanned the 1950s to the present day.

In the mid-1950s, Lester was on the margins of the Louisiana blues scene. According to Rolling Stone (February 23, 2006), Buddy Guy, before moving to Chicago, had played in Louisiana "with some of the old masters: Lightnin' Hopkins, Lazy Lester, Slim Harpo." When Guy left for Chicago, in 1957, Lester replaced him, on guitar, in a local band—even though Lester, at the time, did not own one.
