I must say, 2016 has been a rough year.  At least it has in the music world.  We have lost too many of our favorite talented musicians this year. David Bowie, Glen Frey, Prince, Merle Haggard, Paul Kantner, Leonard Cohen, and now Leon Russell...

This list may arrive as a kind of affirmation, if you were a huge fan. More likely, however, is that you never knew Leon Russell wrote so many great songs.

News of the death of Leon Russell has prompted an outpouring of public affection for the veteran songwriter and recording artist.
