Leon is the "Real Deal" a true American Icon...From Roll over Bethoven,"The Monster Mash, "This Diamond Ring" Carney, Concert for Bangledesh...to the present...he's still doing it! See him when he comes to your neck of the woods...you won't be disappointed! Forget Elvis or Jerry Lee...Long Live King Leon~

WHY IS LEON NOT in that Rock and Roll hall of fame?
I think it is atrocious.
He certainly deserves to be one of the first in there.
Nobody can match Leon....never.
