    This is exquisite.
    For me , the older Leon became, the more raspy and distinctively,”Leon,” his voice became.
    One of a kind.

      That last tour he did, with the band of teenagers, was amazing. I saw him at a small bar in columbus. Just phenomenal.

    Hallmark can keep it and I'll take Leon over a box of chocolates any day (well, almost any day). Fantastic collage of images! I really like the way you went from image to reverse negative near the end of this gorgeous compilation and presentation. And your thoughtful selection and flowing order was just artful. You've done a lovely job, Crystal, of our so loved, so talented and beautiful Valentine. Many thanks!

    Never knew til recently that Leon had a congenital defect impacting His right side, even to the point of paralysis. Listened to an old interview recently where the interviewer asked him how he dealt with the anamoly. His response: “I was pissed at the world”, but, he surely worked his way through it.

      In all likelyhood it was Leon. He was a producer, lyricist, arranger, and on, and on. A musicians, musician till the end, and sadly missed.
