Lennie is joined by record label owner and jazz enthusiast Will Abell, who shared his take on the jazz scene: touching on record collecting, inclusivity and open mindedness within the community, breaking down the inaccessible stigma surrounding it, jam sessions, the impact it has had on other genres and how important jazz is as a medium to communicate personal voice.
