Passed in his sleep at the age of 74. There will never be another like him!

Carney is one of the best and most underrated albums IMO. Really liked listening to Leon over the years. "We're lost in this masquerade" RIP

The best concert I ever went to was him at Memorial Hall in KC, KS, a nice relatively smaller venue with great acoustics. It was shortly after he came off of the Mad Dogs and Englishmen Tour with Joe Cocker.

Man, I missed this. So sorry to hear it. I too saw him in a small venue and man it was a great night. RIP
