First saw him at the Bangladesh Concert and bought Carny immediately. Saw him last in a dinner theatre in Chicago a few months before he passed. He was of course diminished by then but still had more soul in his little finger than most have in their whole body. RIP Leon.
My old man and his buddy showed me the Concert for Bangladesh video some time when I was a teenager, and this segment has always stuck with me. Leon Russell was something else
I saw the concert in movie theater in Seattle. At first I thought Billy Preston was going to steal the show with "that's the way God Planned it!" Worth watching the video. But no, Leon owned the evening! Truly epic!
I loved him since l was 14 yrs old… Very blessed to have seen him in my hometown with the Shelter people.. And Lil Richard… He never disappointed,, his shows were brilliant & down to earth… my Gracious. He was cool & didn’t have to try & ahead of his time. Every Lp he rocked & played it so well his way.❣️💕🎶💕🎶💕ohh l love you LeonRussell you had such a influence on my LIFE❣️
No one had respect & friends like George Harrison, who could form a SuperGroup or epic concert almost as an afterthought. One comment I see a lot, most underrated guitar player in history ok. Just like to add, a true humanitarian & everlasting gift to us all.
Wow fifty years if I remember right when this came out was first time I heard Leon this gave me a great flash back I was fifteen again for nine minutes twenty seven seconds miss all that have gone before us RIP ✌

Peace & Life Everlasting with Jesus ❤️ HEAVEN is the dwelling place not only of God, but also of the angelic beings who worship him. Jesus Christ came from heaven returned to heaven after his death and resurrection, at present appears in heaven on behalf of his people and will one day return from heaven to save his people and judge his enemies.Through the grace of God, heaven becomes also the eternal dwelling place of all those who through faith have become God’s children. For them, to be for ever in the presence of God is to be in paradise. Romans 10:9-10 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. JOHN 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. LUKE 13:3 I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish. 2 CORINTHIANS 5:17 This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun! Deuteronomy 4:29 But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul ❤
Leon Russel was so underrated. This jumping jack flash/Youngblood is fire.

Leon was a natural band leader. This concert and his Mad Dogs work with Joe Cocker are legendary.
Miss his shows
He was a stranger in a strange land

There's a lot more from the same period you can look into. Try King Crimson...

Been in the back of mind since 1972
@@geraldmorain3166 been evermore forefront for me, given the Times, and how they are a changing.
Most of the band had been playing on Harrison productions going back to ‘69. It wasn’t exactly a tossed together group
I met Leon at the Circle Cinema in Tulsa,Oklahoma, and I told him how impressed I was with his playing at this benefit.
My favorite on the album. Nobody like Leon Russell.. He had the place rock in’.
I love how this sounds like a combination between Jumpin Jack Flash and Sympathy for the Devil
Leon man what a dude what a musician
I LOVE these songs together. It makes my day better..❤
One of the many highlights of this Epic Concert that still stands the test of time........
