Love it .... one of my favorites ... thank you !!

With two of the greatest reedmen of our times: the late Bobby Gordon and Ken Peplowski.

Another oldie well done...mellow and laid back...your humming always adds a sensual touch to your songs...xxxooo

Beautiful...

When I first heard him I thought he had tobacco stuck in his mouth, but I couldn't help liking him anywhere. Going to miss you, Leon.

We bid a fond adieu.

In a world of copycats leon was a true original...RIP my brother...

Loved this guy from the first time I heard him a voice and style like no other RIP Big Guy we'll miss you

I came to LR a bit late, now I'm trying to make up for all those wasted years. This is the best version of this song - ever! (But you're reading the opinion of a thoroughly biased man of course.)

That's one cool sumbitch!! Wow

Got the idea. Just the thing after grocery shopping...Rosa Larsen

Ah Leon, you were the best.

About the album, A Lazy River, “AllMusic wrote: ‘Sporting an unmistakable and remarkably limber baritone, Redbone continues his fusion of Americana with some distinct and flavorful overtones that would not sound out of place in the Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli-led Quintet of the Hot Club of France.’” - Wikipedia.
