The iconic and somewhat reclusive Leon Redbone passes away

You'd see him on Saturday Night Live back in the day and on the Tonight Show, strumming a banjo or guitar, singing blue grass, blues and a bit of jazz...he was definitely unique, stayed true to his persona and character and Leon Redbone passes away at age 69, although he states he was 127...whatever the case, RIP Leon...you were interesting, unique and made a difference.

Here is Leon playing about 6 years ago at Hughs Room in the "Roncy Village" area...






 


The world would be so good if it weren't for some people...
