Very sad news. He was a talented songwriter, musician, and rocker who maintained his country roots. He will be missed. R.I.P.

With so many, many great rock acts in the 60s and early 70s it's inevitable that have the Obits coming more frequently now.

Very under rated in the eyes of the average person.

Watch this and I challenge you not to be emotionally moved. One of the great collections of talent on one stage ever.

Thanks for posting. Great stuff..............three very talented guys there. I'm currently taking lessons from a studio musician who has worked with a number of big names over the years. He pretty much says the same about Leon Russell........along with Jeff Lynne, very underrated in the public eye.

"Delta Lady" a classic.
