Pat Metheny, Slash, Russell Malone, Lee Ritenour, Mimi Fox, Larry Ridley and others remember Wes.

In a previous post, George Benson revealed his first exposures to Wes and how one of Wes's brothers helped guide his career. In this post, we hear from eight other musicians. Some played music with Wes. Some were young musicians who got to meet Wes just as they were beginning their own careers. And some were too young to have known him, but talk about the first time they heard his music and what it has meant to them. We hear from:
Larry Ridley (bass)
Billy Hart (drums)
Pat Metheny
Lee Ritenour
Russell Malone
Mimi Fox
Slash
Eric Johnson
