Theodore Marcus 'Teddy' Edwards (April 26, 1924 – April 20, 2003) was an American jazz tenor saxophonist composer, arranger, and lyricist. He was one of the crown jewels of Los Angeles' Central Avenue jazz scene of the 1940s.
'His immediately recognizable sound puts him in a league of his own'.
"A cult figure who should be a luminary..."
