What a great player he was! Terrific tone, enviable right-hand!
They were an animated bunch, weren't they? (Nice to see a very early Jazzmaster, too.)

That was great,he reminds me of the showmanship that Robert Randolph has in modern times.
So exciting to watch, wish more players could be as enthusiastic and animated as Leon was many many years ago!
