About the show: 
In the first of many personal stories around the inception of Lester Jay into the world of music we begin at the beginning.
Lester Jay is a first generation midwestern child of Lester Jenkins, Sr and JoWanna Jenkins. The story of how Al Green and his catalogue of music became a staple in the Lester Jay sound starts with his mother. Al Green is a native of the same town Lester’s mother is from, Forrest City, Arkansas.
As a child, Lester and his family would travel from Chicago to Forrest City a few times a year to visit family, and those 9-hour car rides were full of Motown, R&B, blues and gospel hits. Al Green seemed to have possessed all those genres in one and is considered a hometown hero of his mother and the town of Forrest City, Arkansas. Al Greens catalogue was engrained in Lester Jay’s musical DNA like the ABC’s are to a child.
In the production of “From Forrest City with Love & Happiness” Lester hopes to give you the experience of taking a drive from Chicago, Illinois to the southern plains of Forrest City, Arkansas full of timeless music from Al Green’s illustrious musical discography from his early works of the 70’s to the 90’s.
