[Notes]

Released roughly a year after Leon Russell performed an unlikely mainstream
comeback with the assistance of Elton John, the 2011 disc Live in Japan
contains a wealth of live performances from Russell at his peak. The first
section of the record was indeed recorded at Budokan in Japan while Leon was
on tour in 1973, running through hits like Tight Rope, folding A Song for
You into a medley, and generally rocking like a madman. The second section
is taken from a 1971 show from Houston, recordings that are rowdier and
rougher, both in performance and audio. Even if this is a bit of a ragged,
woolly comp, it has plenty to offer: despite the presence of 1973 s Leon
Live, there aren t many live records of Russell in full flight, so this
taste of him rocking ferociously is indeed welcome.
