This was an outstanding writer/singer/entertainer from the 70's on. If I was smart enough I'd link a song or two. BUT alas---I'm not. Hopefully someone could do that. "A song for you"--"A hard rains gonna Fall"

I believe I have a longer version on DVD but this was on youtube. Its one of Willie Nelson's earlier picnics, 1974, and Leon is on it several times and is feeling no pain Its an hour and a half long, your warned! But a real step back in time. Back when they were playing and having fun playing.
