Saxophonist Harry Allen on The Jason Crane Show

Visit The Jason Crane Show for my latest interview. This episode’s guest is tenor saxophonist Harry Allen. Turned on to jazz as a kid by his father, Harry Allen set his sights on becoming a professional. Along the way, he took a different path from the many Coltrane disciples, and that has made all the difference. You can find out more about Harry at HarryAllenJazz.com.
