Leon Russell-Will 0' The Wisp-1975





Will O' The Wisp is one of the best albums of the 1970s. A unique combination of gospel and rock, Will O' The Wisp is ideal for laying back and turning up the volume. I truly think it is an aural feast for your ears. The better your stereo system is the more you will enjoy this startling record. Most of the lyrics concern love and are sensual in nature. Leon's biggest hits such as Lady Blue and Back to the Island are on here too but what I enjoy are the beautiful,ethereal gospel harmonies bursting forth from the heavens, Leon's make-your-head-spin synthesizer and other numerous surprises. I can't recommend an album any better than this one.

01 Will O' The Wisp ** (Digitally Remastered 95)
02 Little Hideaway * (Digitally Remastered 95)
03 Make You Feel Good (Digitally Remastered 95)

Leon Russell-Leon Russell & The Shelter People-1971



The sound of Leon Russell is a perfect blend of blues, country, gospel, soul and rock n roll, all with a distinct southern flavour.
Leon Russell & The Shelter People is undoubtedly one of his best albums, and also one of his most upbeat and fun. The first track, "Stranger In A Strange Land", is one of those songs which is so good you are sure you have heard it before on your first listen. The album also includes two creative Bob Dylan interpretations, and as bonus tracks there are an extra three Dylan covers, all just as good! The other cover song is an imaginative version of George Harrison's "Beware Of Darkness". Tones of the record go from raucous Little Richard style rockers, through countless laid-back toe-tapping grooves to the contemplative "Ballad Of Mad Dogs And Englishmen", dominated throughout by Russell's rollicking piano.
This is a real great album and a perfect starting point for anyone interested in Leon Russell.


Track List

01 Stranger In A Strange Land
02 Of Thee I Sing
03 A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall
04 Cystal Closet Queen
05 Home Sweet Oklahoma

Leon Russell - Hank Wilson's Back! CD




Leon Russell knows something about country music. Born in Oklahoma, virtually all of the country and blues made their way through Tulsa along with Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys. And while Russell is known primarily as a rock & roll performer, that doesn't mean jack. The 14 songs here offer a glimpse of where Russell's heart really lies. All classic country and bluegrass tunes, Hank Wilson's Back features Russell and a few dozen of his closest friends from both L.A. and Nashville tearing up the classics. With everyone from Melba Montgomery, Billy Byrd, Johnny Gimble, Bob Moore, Weldon Myrick, and Pete Drake to Carl Radle, David Briggs, Charlie McCoy, and fellow Okie J.J. Cale, Russell in his alter ego runs through standards such as Lester Flatt's "Rollin' in My Sweet Baby's Arms," Hank Williams' "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry" and "Jambalaya," Bill Monroe's "Uncle Pen," Hank Thompson's "Six Pack to Go," Leon Payne's "Lost Highway," George Jones' "The Window up Above," Jimmie Driftwood's "The Battle of New Orleans," and as a closer, Leadbelly's "Goodnight Irene". This is no idle affair. Russell's reads of these classic songs from the country and bluegrass canon are played with fire, verve, and reverence, and he uses every trick in the book to get at the bottom of their meaning, allowing his voice to do things it never did before or since this recording. The playing is well rehearsed and stellar, and since it is played straight, the arrangements are minimal, making Cale's production job that much easier. Hank Wilson's Back is raw, immediate, and full of the kind of drunken passion that only someone who loves the country music tradition could execute. Highly recommended. ~ Thom Jurek
