Great musicians on this album, including Leon Russell (guitar, keyboards, vocals), Carl Radle (bass), and Jim Keltner (drums) Keltner would later be the drummer for another great supergroup named The Traveling Wilburys.

If you haven’t heard of him, or if this brings his name back to your consciousness, give this playlist a shot.
