Leon Russell 1942 – 2016

Last time I saw him play, I was photographing him from the fly floor of the Old Lady on Brady.  Going to have to search hard for those now.

Last saw him at Dfest. Absolute legend.

My wife and I met him at the Circle Cinema.  When I told him I and my two roommates were in the 1975 OSU yearbook as Leon, Lily and Lola Russell, he gave me his address and asked me to send him the pic.  I sent it to him and am really glad I got the chance to meet him and put a smile on his face.
