Uncle Will, beloved prolific masterful bass player became a forever musical hero of mine after hearing his vocals on “What can a miracle do” with the Brecker Brothers and then with his father’s big band Charlie Parker homage “Birdhouse”! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Yes! You talked to Will Lee this week! He has been with Dave since Day One of his late night run. He, Paul, and the others made a Late Night band that would live on forever.
Uncle Will! Will is easily the best session bass player singer of all time. Dude has the best voice! I was lucky enough to meet him Nov 15 2004 after a taping.
the first person Dave would see when he came out on stage of Late Night was Will Lee. Often times he would say something to Will. I wonder what he said?
Who knew that Will was the voice of The Teddy Grahams commercial and the US Army commercial? Well, now we all know. It is impressive to hear about his stellar career in music, with Letterman and otherwise. One cool cat.

His first appearance was awesome too!
@@thelettermanpodcast I see. I hope that you will get Don Giller and Merrill Markoe on your podcast soon.
@@KungEMuller Don has been on multiple episodes. Merrill however, well, we hope so too.
@@thelettermanpodcast I see. Well, maybe you could stage a Dave and Merrill reunion just like Dave staged a Sonny and Cher reunion back in 1987.
Thank you Will
Agreed!

And the voice of “Be…All that you can be!”

A lot of times Will would be jumping up and down.
Good call. We will ask next time he’s on.
His dad was a saving grace for me at the U of Miami.
How so?
Holy moses it's Willy Lee!
Good Lord, it sure is! :)

Have you ever tried to reach out or track down World wide pants alumni Craig Kilborn??
We had Billy Kimball. Craig’s producer on. We would LOVE to have Craig on as a guest.
