This is so effin cool. I remember laying on the dining room floor in 1971 and watching this. Cat Stevens was the other main performer, but obviously not with Leon.
@danmyr58 Ohhhh, I envy you getting to hear Leon for the first time! Be sure to treat yourself to The Mad Dogs and Englishmen videos and The Concert for Bangladesh videos. Oh, you are in for a magical, musical journey of wonderment!
@ceetee21 OH, now I see what you mean by "no disrespect" on the other video. You mean a ton of disrespect, but you just want to get away with it. It's all very clear now based on this comment of yours.
we went to see him in Raliegh NC. last nite he played this song near the end he was great!He has just gotten over brain surgery walked with a cane , but was still a great performer.He has been wronged but being inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame.he was instrumental in fueling so many rock stars to fame.Thank you mr russell!!!!!I challenge all of you to read his bio. god bless all
An incredible performance by Leon. I had the privelege of seeing him and hearing him play live recently in NYC. He remains incredible! Thanks for sharing this!!!
It just doesn't get much better than this! Love you Leon!!

Leon is a genius songwriter, no doubt, but hooking up with Joe Cocker, man, what a super move.
