Leon Redbone - Some Of These Days

Leon Redbone (August 26, 1949)[2] is an American singer and guitarist specializing in interpretations of early 20th-century music, including jazz and blues standards and Tin Pan Alley classics.

Recognized for his trademark Panama hat, dark sunglasses, and bow tie, Redbone first appeared on stage in Toronto, Canada in the mid-1970s. Virtually nothing is known for certain about his background or true identity.

Redbone has released approximately fifteen albums and earned a sizable cult following. His concerts blend performance, comedy, and skilled instrumentals. Recurrent gags involve the influence of alcohol and claiming to have written works originating well before his time (as part of the mystery of his true age).

@alroy43 Saw him in Busch Gardens in a little side cafe, in the early 80's...was star struck, really!

I believe he was born in Cyprus and raised in Canada. That is how he got his start. Thanks for sharing he is always awesome live.
