Slats Long

Don "Slats" Long (December 6, 1906 – March 12, 1964) was an American jazz clarinetist.

Long was born and raised in Wichita, Kansas, and he played in the late 1920s and early 1930s with Cass Hagan, Ed Farley, and Mike Riley. He then moved to New York City, where he played with Red Norvo, Chauncey Morehouse, Vincent Lopez, and Bud Freeman. He worked in the early 1940s with Bobby Hackett and Raymond Scott, then retired from music in 1943, moving back to Wichita and working for an aircraft manufacturer until his death in 1964.
