Leon Russell

I've just been listening to "Carney". It's a favorite album of mine because of the sensitivity and genius of Leon Russell. Does anybody else feel the same about him?

I was 16 or 17 years old. No problem getting there, or back. One of the best concerts I attended. "Carney" is my favorite too.

He's great, hope to see him in Nashville sometime in April. ......A Stranger In A Strange Land ;))
