Delta Lady

Leon Russell

#150 September 4, 2025

We're going back to a time before Queen records existed. To a time when the summer of love had wound down but Leon Russell was still tokin'. This one is a song he wrote for Joe Cocker, who released it as the first single from his self-titled second album. November Rain is brought up again, for some ungodly reason and we discuss the relative merits of mic-ing toms from above or below for a tedious amount of time. Also, we try to figure out if Leon Russell or Joe Cocker would have ever made it onto American Idol. No. The answer is no.

If Kev were to title this episode, he'd probably call it "Delta Lady", or possibly, "Leon is stooooooooooooooooned man!"

The sixteenth installment in this podcast-within-a-podcast covers a song submitted by Lynn DeAnda; "Delta Lady", by Leon Russell. If this song were a pie, it would be cherry with whipped cream; it's tasty, rich, and filling!
