…and the hits just keep on coming. Leon Russell, RIP. Session musician turned studio wizard turned consummate showman turned enigmatic recluse…words don’t properly describe you; your music and your life’s work say things so much better. This track, taken from his classic 1972 album Carney, serves as a fitting fare-thee-well from a man who never intended to stick around. Rolling stone, moss, I think you get the picture…
I loved and deeply respected Leon’s honesty. He says it how it is. The music world has lost one of it’s finest, in my words, THE finest.
R.I.P. dear Leon.
