  • I love this guy and the way he does his own thing !! Cool ~!

  • @whojacka on the first season

    

  • Saw him at the Cotati Cabaret in northern Calif. maybe 25 years ago. A small pub with a bunch of tiny round tables. My buddy & I were up front........ a few too many pitchers of beer. I kept hollaring "Ain't Misbehavin'" between songs. I probably pissed him off, because I don't think he ever did play it. Never took off his shades....and the closest he came to removing his hat....was to angle it slightly forward about a half an inch to thank the audience. Cool dude!

  • Saw him perform Feb.9th in Bloomington Ill. Very entertaining when he played.But spent waaaaaay too much time between songs mumblin and repeating silly things not at all pertaining to the concert. Real downer. The piano player was outstanding. Think maybe he's getting old and a little coo-coo

  • I think it is Jill Clayburgh who just died last year, TheBassMan6379!

  • I'd give anything to see Leon Redbone in person but I'm so far north I can (almost) see Ice bergs from my house. No one passes thru here except bears.

  • Go see his show while he's still touring..money well spent. even better in person. Its like he's just dropped by for a wee drink, and a visit, playing in your own frontroom.

  • @stationranger Look up his tour site, and go see him. he's getting on in years, he may stop touring. (tho I doubt it)

  • @whojacka It was in the first season, which aired in 1975. If I remembered the the name of the gal who hosted I could get you the episode number! I want to say it was somewhere between 10 and 15.

  • I wonder when this episode of SNL aired??
