Billy Higgins on the Specials Board today!

Honoring one of the greatest drummers of all time, ten years after his passing on today's program. Master Higgins departed May 3, 2001, just four months prior to the Change of our Century, September 11, 2001.

Today's Grill Room edition of Lunchtime features a menu exclusively of Billy Higgins as both a leader and sideman.

Bon Appetite!
