Markos,
Are you familiar with Michael Steinman? He goes by the name "swingyoucats" on YouTube! He also hosts a jazzlives.wordpress.com blog. He goes around (mainly in NY, but travels extensively too) and records various groups - posting blogs and videos. (Many spectrums of jazz.)
Yesterday, I ran across a candid 2015 interview he did with Bob Wilber (in *four parts). In that interview, Bob mentions Lester's unique way of holding the tenor, and how it changed as the years went on. The entire interview was interesting to me - though I think it might have been an interview of opportunity given the lighting and questions/etc. Either way - I found it enjoyable. Here's a link to the Bob Wilber interview in case you're interested.
