I'm not sure who Heavy Leslie is, or even whether h.L. might be a person or an organ.

This one's on the pipe organ - well spotted!
The 'Heavy Leslie' business is a joke based on the Leslie speaker. My home organ - which you'll hear on the music quiz - is a 1978 Lowrey with a built-in Leslie speaker.
When I got the organ, I wanted to find out the history of the Leslie, which became a Guide Entry: A87901211 You might find it interesting, being musical yourself. 
You'll hear a lot of Leslie action in rock music, black gospel, and R&B.
