I must be the only person who is just as interested that Leon Russell is going to play at this thing. Really enjoy his stuff.

You're not alone. Saw him a couple years ago at a local performance. Walks with a cane but still has the stuff. Some oldies, some new. Played for hours.

I get out Mad Dogs and Eng (Joe Cocker) every few months. Leon arranged most all of it. A great American talent.

Thanks, am so glad to hear he’s ok. I remembered him from when I was a teenager, and then he was just gone. I know he wrote songs that were covered and he toured and such, but he’s just kind of off the radar. A great 2-CD anthology came out a couple years ago with good liner notes, all the good songs, and I’ve really been enjoying getting reaquainted with his stuff. Thanks again for the info.
