My son (Mark Henes) is a fantastic guitarist in Nashville and yes, the gigs and locations are not what they use to be. I grew up in Montgomery, AL late 70's and Tommy Shaw's parents of Styx were my next door neighbor. We would go out to Sandy Creek campgrounds and see bands like Heart and ZZ Top? ZZ actually flew in on a helicopter and we all had our cheap sunglasses. So Cool.

I think I said this elsewhere, but about 30 years ago, my Beatles loving son said confidently that NOBODY could do a Beatles song as well as the Fab Four themselves. I said, "Wait here", and went to retrieve a cassette tape of Joe Cocker, with his band and choir, and played "With a Little Help from My Friends." When it was over there was a moment of stunned silence before young Matthew said, "Well......nobody ELSE could." There are two great paths for musicians, to be the creator of music, or to be the interpreter. As an interpreter of the works of others, Joe Cocker was unsurpassed.

At the end of the movie it shows Leon playing the piano as the credits are rolling and lists his name. Searched the internet wasn't able to find anything. Will try your title. Thanks.

He was clearly the ring master, and he played a hell of a guitar as well as rocking piano. At the end of the concert, when the audience had all filed out, I was standing in one of the front rows and watched as Leon came on stage and grabbed his Gibson Black Beauty and put it in the case. He was totally, totally exhausted. Completely wiped out. I'll never forget it.

This has got to be one of the greatest performances in R'n'R history - Joe Cocker, Leon Russell, Rita Coolidge, Claudia Lennear, a dog - Wow! Watch Rita Coolidge's interview about this concert. She said that many of the people on the stage were just there not playing an instrument or singing. Leon just wanted them hanging out. He is one of the most underappreciated geniuses in the history of modern music. Where is a time machine when we really need one? Remember, this was the next year after Woodstock. Mad Dogs and Englishmen indeed!

I remember years ago I worked in a small copper mining town, called Gunpowder. A new couple arrived, English by coincidence, accent and all we became friends hung out quite often , one day they brought out a Joe Cocker album, before then I had never heard of him, they said " he takes a bit of getting used to you might like it". That was about 45 years ago and I am still listening to him.

There will never be this much talent on a stage in this generation... there really is no real music today.

@RicardoMoralesMassin Жыл бұрын

Oh ffs Becky. You haven't looked for new music for decades probably. Listen to Black Pumas, you'll definitely like them. And if you want to hear more talented young people doing great music right now take a look at the channel COLORS (look for A COLORS SHOW) or Tiny Desk Concert here on KZfaq. I'm so freaking sick of that

@richardmindemann6935 5 ай бұрын

Sure there is. There is always good music being made. It's a little harder to find, but composers have the likes of Alicia Keys or Chris Stapleton to admire, and Adele is arguably the equal of Joe Cocker as a soulful vocal virtuoso. But I get your drift. We are blessed to have witnessed such a sublime flowering of creativity. May it happen again!

@kayesetchfield9089 5 ай бұрын

Billy Strings, Christone Ingram (Kingfish), there's still good music, but it's harder to find.

Leon Russel was an amazing musician, song writer, singer, arranger, concert director, and from what I understand, a great friend to any artist who ever worked with him. That is practically unheard of today.
