The only possible reasons Leon Russell is not in the Hall of Fame is that he either done "Musical Steroids" or "Bet on Music". I uploaded this video a year ago as most of you know. I made it from a DVD that I have. Others have placed it on their profile. Feel free to enjoy. You can use the embed if you like.

UPDATE: Leon has been inducted into the RRHOF. Now they should apologize for not doing this 20 years ago.

  • Yes, I believe you can get it on Leon Russel Records, if not, I'm sure Ebay. The name of the DVD is: "A Song for You".

  • He saved Joe Cocker's career, brought the house down at the Concert for Bangladesh, made gospel and bluegrass cool again, and has played nearly every instrument including guitar, bass, piano, organ, harpsichord, french horn, flute.. If Leon is ignored again by the RRHoF again and some crotch-grabbing grunt-rapper gets voted in, the whole HoF thing is a disgrace!!!

  • Thank you so much for this. I've loved this song since it came out in the 70's. One of his best and really poignant. The guy is downright awesome!

    "I'm so happy I'm dying of laughter."

  • He made the RRHOF!!! 2011

  • OMG, what I wouldn't give just to shake this man's hand! He is one of the true musical geniuses of our time. I love him. I love his music. Is the DVD you uploaded this from available commercially?

  • Leon just breaks your heart wide open. Listening to this is like an exquisite pain that knocks you out and then keeps you playing it again and again.

  • I think he was most under stood man in music, industrie, he has brought me through my up and downs in life just love him!!!

  • I've seen Leon on stage so drunk he could hardly stand ... but his talent is undeniable.... this is one of the best lonely/heart-broken songs you'll hear ... I wish he would have sung the second verse too.

  • His song, "Me and Baby Jane" can make me cry, enen though it doesn't remind me of anyone specific.

  • santa goes country

  • He's just the coolest.  Period.

  • I too saw Leon in Lafayette La. in the 70's, and Jacksonville Fl. have loved him for years..I'm really enjoying these video's on youtube! TY Youtube peoples!
