Wayne went to prison in Lexington, KY which was where a lot of jazz musicians went. I got a chance to talk with him about his experience there with Red Rodney, the great bebop trumpeter. Wayne had a jailhouse band with Red, who taught him music theory and lots of old standards.
Geez I nearly had a heart attack then!!
