Tight Rope / Leon Russell

I have always loved Leon. He's one of my collection of "non-singers." You know, like Brian Eno, or Chet Baker, guys that are definitely not technically accomplished singers, but who can sell a song so fucking hard that they can make you cry. I just had a cry myself. A friend of mine died last night, kind of in her sleep. She was only sixty years old or something, no lifestyle issues. Shit happens, you know? Wife/mother/friend/beloved teacher. RIP, Khun Pikun.
