Mr. Redbone was one of the best kept secrets in music, a true artist who always stayed true to his unique style of music. I discovered him as a teenager 45 years ago. Over the years his music has brought me hundreds of hours of joy. I’m only sorry that I never got a chance to him him live before he passed. Thank you Leon, you will always have a special place in my heart and ears.
Saw him live twice......shook hands and got his autograph. Great entertainer, truly one of a kind. First interview I've seen of him. Thanks for posting.
I remember seeing him on SNL in the 70s but had forgotten all about him. I was watching Elf with the kids last night and recognized his voice as the snowman, and singing over the closing credits. Enjoying finding some of these videos experiencing him again.
My brother introduced me to Leon Rebone.So glad. Wish I had been able to see him live while he was alive,I mean you know as I sure only he would appreciate I think😅
Such a rare moment to calmly sit and chat with a very private individual. Leon knew how to appreciate and entertain an audience, while keeping a safe distance from the general public. A curious combination.
Your wish is granted. Took a while to get the text synced with the video, but you can turn on Closed Captions and see the questions and answers. Hope this helps!
The reasoning of the off camera interviewer baffles me..The sound quality between the 2 people blows... Great to see Leon..but this format style is horrible. . .
Having never seen or heard him perform in person this video interview was/is a privilege to watch. RIP Leon.

A voice like warm honey, a mind like a circus performer and the mold was broken when he was born. Miss you Leon!!!!!
If only I had been able to see him just once live
What a gracious guest.
Such a mysterious gentleman.
The humble magnificent one and only
I would love to listen to an audiobook narrated by Leon. He had such a soothing voice
I seen him on Saturday Night Live back in the mid 70's and became a fan. He was a good kind of different !! It's a shame he's gone !! RIP Leon !!! ❤

He is absolutely masterful, I so appreciate this interview.
Miss seeing him live. Thank you for this rare interview.

True master of the song

poor performance by host and sound crew. Leon: gracious
A very unique voice, he had.
3:25 Here today gone tomorow. Maybe, maybe not! He was just perfect!
My favourite of all time along with Ry Cooder
Leon had a very unusual voice and temperment. Nobody else quite like him. A genius in his own right.
Love his voice: like he just had his wisdom teeth removed.
What's with all the Chopin questions!? Some strange questions here!
Leon performed at Egertons in Toronto back in the 70’s.
Loved him. Leon always reminded me of Uncle Tonoose.
I hear a lot of Bing Crosby’s influence in Leon’s voice !
I think it would be a lot better if you could put the questions in text on the screen. It's a good interview and worth doing.
Good idea.
closed Captions are on now, with proper (not computer-generated) subtitles.
Where has Leon gone, I don’t see his statue yet?
Dapper.
Please put the questions in text form? I can’t hear her. Great video though, thank you. 👍🎩💕
