Why doesn't HBO have this on their Docs list???? I'm so excited to find this. Leon and Elton, two soulful individuals. ❤
I can't imagine the pride and accomplishment of this album. Beautiful on the inside and the outside as Elton John creates a masterpiece while saving a legend Leon Russell. An act of human decency that will live forever in the Union!
I'm thankful to have found this im a big Leon fan i would go see him every chance i could in the 70s & early 80s 🙏✌️

One of the best EJ related docos. Thank you so much for making this available on YT.
It's one of the best Leon Russell doco .
In these strangest of times this documentary has filled my soul and widened my heart. These musicians helped form my life and I'm so grateful for this representation, this life affirming gift of love and magic. Thank you for sharing here on YT❤
As a die-hard fan of Elton John and slowly becoming one of Leon Russell's, i have to thank you from the bottom of my heart for uploading this. I've been looking for this documentary ever since i started listening to their Union album. It's fucking brilliant. 😍😃
Thank you so much! I've been waiting for someone to reupload this for at least 8-9 years.
Great Documentary of Leon Russell & Elton john l love.
Thanks for this marvel. I just finished reading the incredibly detailed new book on Leon by Bill Janovitz, and this was a great way to celebrate him (I also used half a box of tissues)! Can't believe it's had so few views!
I got that biography a couple weeks ago. Read it cover to cover in days, then picked it up again to savor it over a couple of weeks. I learned a lot. So much to take in--and savor.
Thanks so much for posting this - it’s such a great doc
Finallyyyy! Thank you!
No problem. I figured this must have been available on YT, but it wasn't so I put it up. I wasn't sure it would not be blocked either. I had to trim 30 seconds of a Delany and Bonnie song, but that was it. I recorded this from my DVR when it first aired, and figured it would get released at some point, but nope. Great documentary of both Elton and Leon (and of course The Union album).
There’s a really nice comment on a version of this somewhere where Elton worries that people think he wears the same thing all the time and he just says ‘no I have 14 of these tracksuits’
Pure Gold, thank you for the upload.
I am so thrilled this is watchable now!!! Wow!!!!! Been waiting for seeming ever to find it -- absolutely beyond touching!!
As many great albums and artists, I warmed up to Union, and to Leon Russell very slowly... Via the Elton door as it were. I've gotten used to his voice, and find it amusing, and fitting for my favorites- among them Queen of the Roller Derby. I knew of him because of the three Carpenters songs he wrote- A Song For You, This Masquerade, and one other (can't think of it off hand).
Until Union, I'd never really heard him sing, except Tight Rope, which I didn't know was him. When way he sings Tight Rope, I can't help but think of Pete Puma with Buggs... "How many lumps you want Mac?"-"Better give me a whole lotta lumps"... Ha! Big Elton fan for like 50 years now... Thanks to Elton John, et al... Thank you.
Elton’s range here is fantastic. I’m wondering why he doesn’t sing with that range when he was on tour during the last 10 years.
Thank you so much
W O W !!!
hoda hoda Hoda Kotb. (stop the press) -He was damaged on his right half from birth, so therefore may have leaned on the left (my words not his). Many of the great composers were left handed. He said he invented things he could play. Wow. You know Joni Mitchell was partly disabled on her left because of polio from childhood, and invented tunings to accommodate that.
