Leon Russell is cool
"cool" as in unflappably self-contained and as seen in this early, early clip.

1.  ... always enjoyed his music.
Especially the first two, three albums. A great show.

2. I gotta confess
I didn't know he had a "solo career" so early on as per this 1964 clip.

The other thing I dig is how much of a team player, support musician he could be, i.e Mad Dogs, Bangladesh, etc.

:hi:
