Incredible songwriter musician and producer. Brilliant. He wrote this gorgeous piece of music ❤❤
Best musician ever.
Clarity of sound and video is amazing. Leon Russell is mesmerizing. Thank you,, beautiful 🎇👍
Greatest soundcheck in history. ❤
I love Leon. "Lady Blue" is another knockout song. Thanks for reacting to this!
Thank you for reacting to ol' Leon. Remember, he was a session musician on piano for many known records. Also, his songwriting is top notch. His vocal 'styling' is an acquired taste for some ... with most of his popular songs covered by other artists. This video seems like it was done at the old Sea Saint studio of Allen Toussaint, in New Orleans.
This is cut from the Homewood Sessions shot in Hollywood. You can watch the whole thing here on YT.
The Homewood Sessions are great.
He wrote A Song For You for his then girlfriend Rita Coolidge woh was also a singer. He also sang “type rope”. One of my favorites. Worth the listen.
Tight Rope.
Rita Coolidge, uncredited, also wrote the stunning second half of "Layla"
Yeah not really well known.....Leon only played on THOUSANDS of Sessions, in which HUNDREDS were TOP 10 HITS!
Calm down, it was a valid observation. Leon was NOT as well known as Elton John or even Billy Preston. The DJs didn't announce his playing piano on Sinatra's and Beach Boys hits. It took Joe Cocker doing Delta Lady to promote Leon's incredible talent.
Listen to Lady Blue. ❤️
leon Russel married a black women and was still with her until his death.
not really--sadly he and Mary divorced in 1980, but met a new love afterwards
They divorced in like 1979.
No. He wasn't still married to Mary when he died.
You must watch all the Homewood Sessions videos. You will be blown away.
Donny Hathaway probably owns this tune (beautiful). Leon still is fun to listen to also.
Singer-songwriters know better than anyone the true meanings of their songs. That's why Eric Carmen's All By Myself eclipses Celine Dion's version, despite her incredible voice. There are exceptions, such as CSNY doing Woodstock, written by Joni Mitchell, who didn't attend the event and thus didn't truly experience it. David Ackles wrote incredible songs that others like Donny could sing better, but can they truly capture the pathos David does singing his The Road to Cairo?
