Thanks to recording engineer Doug McClement for the following information on the band members.
"The band was made up of Toronto session musicians
Bass: Rick Homme
Guitar: Bob Mann
Drums: Terry Clarke (who just celebrated his 78th birthday last week) he's still an A level session drummer in town. en.wikipedia.o...)
Synth: My longtime friend Lou Pomanti, still a major keyboardist and band arranger here in T.O. He has an amazing r&b horn band called "Oakland Stroke." • Oakland Stroke "Spinni...
The Musical Director of the series was the late Bobby Edwards, and Camera Director was the late Ron Meraska.
The exec producer who put together all the amazing pairs of musicians for the 26 episodes of 'In Session' was the late Ian Milne Anderson."

I was fortunate to be the recording engineer on the In Session series for both seasons (that's me in the control room in the grey shirt) It was an unforgettable experience. I have several photos I took backstage during breaks. Glen and Leon were a pleasure to work with. Glen had no star attitude whatsoever. Hung out with the crew at lunch. Leon was a bit more withdrawn, but a real southern gentleman. Glen also did an episode in Season 2 in 1988, with Jimmy Webb.
Great to hear from you. The late Ian Anderson told me when they would be arriving, and where I could show up to greet them.
I wonder why this never made it to DVD for sale to the public, and I wonder what never made it to air (what was left on the cutting room floor).
Would you mind sharing your photos with me (sliddycoat@gmail.com)? I would love to see them.
I was in Leon's band in 1981. He was a private person, not prone to extroversion, in other words. Leon was a good-hearted man, however. And I never heard him speak negatively of anyone.
Incredible session thanks man
Thank you
🙏🤗🍺cheers
Too cool!
Thank you, UA-cam algorithm for leading me to this gem.
Glen Campbell is one musician I would NOT want to jam with. I mean one of the greatest lead guitar players and than he decides to become a frontman, and his voice might be even better than his guitar playing. What an absolute musical giant. RIP Glen.
I would sing and play circles around him.
😂 Not unless your last name is Walker...
Yep. But Leon was a wrecking ball!!!
And LEON TOO.
Eddie asked him for lessons🤷♂️
This is why UA-cam is so special, finding gems like this.. 2 incredible artists
Damn dude thats amazing; I bet that was a blast; saw glen only once at the Tulsa fair; he was amazing; Leon three times; once alone; once with Merle and the Leon and Elton union tour
The hair loss advert in between done it for me lol
Have you seen J.J Cale and Leon Russell Live at Paradise Studios 1979? It's brilliant
@@buckodonnghaile4309gonna check that out right now
I was just thinking the same thing 😂✌️
This video is truly historic.....the music and the conversation between these two icons is a gift.....I feel very lucky to have found this.....music is the bridge to truth and happiness.....
Music is your special friend until the end...JDM
Glen had talent oozing out of every pore. Helluva singer. One of the greatest guitar players that ever drew breath. He was even a great golfer. A true musicians musician.
No arguments here
And he couldn't read music. The interview I say with is it Carol Kay, the bass/ guitar player was an eye opener. Her recounting the Wrecking Crew is marvelous.
HE WAS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WONDERFUL!
Stumbling upon this in 2024 and having the best hour ive had in a long time. what a couple of voices and talents.
Gl😊in was the best 12 string player in the world
Yep me too
Same . August 2024 , amazing , just so damn fabulous 😊
Me too , this makes my heart sing
Glen and Leon could have done a duet album that included Heartbreak Hotel and it would have gone platinum and won a Grammy! They are sooooo good together.
More talent between the two of them than during the entire Grammy Awards in last few years.
Love Leon and Glenn . You must have missed Billy Strings who was relegated to the roof top!
you mean Jimmy Kimmel wasnt there ?? Oh No !!!
So true!
Kimmel don't work unless the bioches twerk.
They are great, but if you need to put someone else down to acknowledge that you are doing it wrong.
OMG- This is Awesome!! , The 1rst time i seen Leon Russell, was at the Oakland Coliseum, in Calif, in the early 70's when i was 14,, then i was Lucky enough to see him again at the Dixon, Calif., May Fair for price of addmission($5.00) in 1983, , I have a polaroid picture of Leon Russell Loggin's & Messina, Billy Preston, & more from that concert in Oakland , Calif, & I treasure it after all these yrs, 50 plus yrs ago
🎶🎶
amazing memory....thank you for sharing....
Was that a day on the Green concert?
I’m a heavy metal guitarist and Glenn is one of my favorite players along with Jerry Reed. 🎉
Me too but you left out Chet
Roy Clark also. That man could play any style.
Chet has to be on the list !
@@Trace-x8n Les Paul!
Lucky guy you are.
Lucky we are to enjoy your generous share.
Thx✌️
Glen Campbell was the soundtrack of our summer travels. Leon Russell, I grew up in the Pearl District of Tulsa, Ok, during the 70s, about a mile from Leon's Church Studios. During the 70s Eric Clapton and George Harrison were in love with the Tulsa Sound being made with Leon and J.J. Cale, because of this they were frequently in town. Ran into Le4on, George and Eric in the health food store, they came in for some fresh yogurt, my buddy grabbed my wrist and said, "Be cool, they come in all the time, don't want to run them off", I did stare a lot thought. After graduation my buddy stopped by the Church Studio and asked Leon for a job. A week later I was at the OKC Airport, when suddenly Leon and his entourage hurried by, late for a flight. My buddy, loaded down with 5 carryon bags was hurrying to keep up, I asked Tony, "Where ya headed, he said, Europe, I got the job, I'm a roadie."
Great story!❤
Such a great memory to have! I know what it means when time just stops in the presence of greatness...and you just kinda stare...almost basking in their glow😅
✨️👍🏻 I was hoping Church Studio got a mention...tytyty 😊
Great story and memory
Terrific story. Thanks!
Two of the best musicians ever. Could effortlessly switch musical genres. Studio musicians at heart. They thrived on making with others and interacting with each other.
This was so darn great. Two talented musicians reminiscing about songs & times that touched their hearts, while leaving a trail of their own musical magic dust on so many hits which at the time we were hardly aware of. Through so many genre too. Some wizards should never grow old, let alone be allowed to 'Fly Away', leaving us here to shed silent tears of losses & joy. And Oh, what talent & tunes of our own life's panoramas, still echo down the line, even Gentle on our Minds. This just reminded me of how we were blessed for choice. ❤😊🎉
So well said, and thank you for saying it. ☺️💗🙌🏼
@johnknottenbelt2727 Most profoundly well said.
Leon Russell ❤ Such a great singer & musician. Timeless. Glen surprised me, not just a country singer. What a great pairing of 2 icons.👍🏼
It's amazing how many hit records Leon played on in the 60s. I heard a story from a biography of Leon that some of that work he was inundated with he hated doing, like playing for Gary Lewis and the Playboys. None of them played an instrument or could read music and it drove Leon nuts. Gary's Dad Jerry had to use all his star power to get Ed Sullivan to allow his son's band to appear on his TV show. Ed didn't want them on because nobody played an instrument and he'd have to cover for him or let them lip-synch, something nobody did on Ed's show. In the end Jerry won out and Ed let them on.
Shame on me. My guitar teacher when I was 14 wanted to teach Glen; I wanted to learn Dylan.
A lot of people don’t realize probably how influential Leon was in music circles. He was a driving force for Joe Cockers Mad dogs and Englishmen tour writing the arrangements and leading the band itself. He and Glenn could sit in and play with anyone. And do it well! Thanks for posting.
Same could be said of Campbell, despite being primarily a country artist, even many rock guitar legends admired his playing and cited his influence.
Interestingly, Cocker had fired his entire band shortly before the MD&E grouping. His manager called Leon and asked if he could get a band together to do the tour, and the rest is history.
Glen was a Beach Boy
Wrecking Crew@@jeffnichols207
Saw Leon in '73, changed my life.
Saw him on TV (Homewood) in 1970 -- same for me.
Was lucky enough to see Leon Russell,no fan fair or big advertisement about,but I saw him in a small club portion of a casino in N. Lake Tahoe. He was great👍
Two legends. I think Glen was one of the best guitarist ever.
Roy Clark and Chet Atkins too
Did you know he did the opening guitar riff for Dance, Dance Dance?
You know music.
Eddie Van Halen asked him for guitar lessons. He was that good.
And... he couldn't read a note of music.
Bellissimo video! Grandissima performance! 😊😊😍😍😇😇💘💔💔🙏🙏
We boomers were lucky to have some of the best music ever made.....and here are two of the good ones.
and in all of the genres so damned great.
BOOMERS ARE BLESSED 🙌 ✝️ 🕊
Two of the best!
We boomers were lucky growing up with the 60s ,70s or early 80s music, because thats real music in these era. Even as an S.E. Asian, I grew up with these rock n roll music.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!
That guitar break on Gentle on My Mind was soooo sweet
Never will AI accomplish human greatness like the two extraordinary musician's in this video. Leon Russell was the first real concert I went to see. It was a religious experience, never been bested.
*yet
Remember, today is the worst you will ever hear when it comes to AI music.
My first concert. Also
Back in the day 1973
@@nomandad2000ai has no soul. No inspiration. It can only copy, not create.
Im certain that I was at that same concert.July 1972 The warehouse New Orleans
I'm 65. Watched the Glen Campbell TV show. My grandmother loved him, even tho he was a "long hair", but I didn't know what a talent he was in the 60's. 60 years later, lots of learning, I now know, too late, what a talent he ( and Leon ) were
You know what sucks? Been listening to Glen since i was a kid now 66, never knew how good he really was. Just wonderin how many others have been fooled? Somebody was holdin him back! Hell it might have been Glen himself, I'll never know. But damn he was good! So is Leon!
I'm the same way
We were just making the same observation, feeling badly that we ignored him, we think it was because we didn't think he was hip or cool enough for us, I can see now that we just weren't hip or cool enough for him.
Me too
Same here from a guy who is 72. I always liked GC and the songs he did but did not appreciate what a top-notch guitar player he really was until many years later.
You might want to watch what is available on youtube about “The Wrecking Crew”….. both Leon and Glen were top tier studio musicians. Cher has a couple GREAT stories about Leon in the studio too….
Those guitar riffs on Gentle On My Mind are like opium for the soul.
F*ckin-A Right! Beautiful!
I will remember that phrase and use it the rest of my life! Thanks for a new superlative exclaimation!
Glen is the GOAT!
This is an absolute historical treasure.
Love leon and glen Campbell is just such an incredible guitar player and performer. RIP 2 legends
Two of the finest musicians to ever come down the pike...
and also up the pike....
Agree...if this doesn't make someone's big toe shoot straight up in their boot, they are dead!
Monster talent....RIP
Amen, two of my all time favs
That’s right
I Love Leon Russell❤ & Glen is Amazing, always have loved hi music Too!@🤗❤
Glen Campbell’s guitarwork is stunning.
Glen was part of "the Wrecking Crew"
It never ceases to amaze me how great an artist Glen Campbell was. They are all talented on that stage but holy crap he had it goin on.
I don't think there's anything Glen Campbell couldn't play. And Leon Russell - what a talent and legend. Thanks for posting!
Leon was music. No separation of body from instrument, or voice. Just music.
Glen and the Studio musicians were in complete Awe when Leon played his Song! Glen and Leon -pillars of music genius 🇺🇸RIP Brothers🇺🇸
100%! If you liked this one check out Leon and JJ Cale.
Wow, I didn't know Glen was so good on guitar. My mom always listened to him when I was a kid, but I didn't pay much attention to him back then. Leon seemed like such a humble man, very cool.
2 Great Musicians I could listen for hours!
Oh my goodness. Campbell’s solo on the first track, the John Hartford classic ‘Gentle on my Mind’, is simply stunning
Harford
The Very Best version of "A Song For You" beginning at 15:12. Leon, your soul shone in every played and sung note. My God, it's magnificent. Both consummate in instrument, voice, harmonization and licks.
Glenn Campbell’s songs are like those peaceful moments you have to yourself on a nice trip where you stop and reflect on how grateful it feels to be “here and now”.
Lovely comment. And true🕊️
Totally!
Leon is just out this world- effortlessly, epically slaying every change on the keyboard with taste and style. Ditto for Glen Campbell- one of the finest guitarists and singers in country music history. Just genius!
Not just country music friend.
Glenn Campbell was one of the finest musicians humanity has ever witnessed, same with Leon Russel. I can’t believe this video exists, but I am so happy that I’ve been given the chance to enjoy, and as a musician study and learn from it!
that was the EXACT word that came to me...effortless. what a monster talent. i still save the Bangaldesh album and his cuts there are rock solid
These men each had 25-30 years of practice and were at their peak here. They could do anything.
Leon Russell just IS Humble ! awesome !
Well, the world is poorer by far for the lack of these two but how wonderful that we have this. Thank you for posting
You are welcome. Enjoy!
What a treasure I stumbled upon! Love Leon and Glen and all the great ones! So easy on the ears. Thanks from Texas. ❤️🇨🇱💙
You are welcome. I'm glad that you enjoyed it.!
I've seen A LOT of great concerts in my 70 years here on earth, and I can honestly say when I saw Leon Russell and Willie Nelson on the same stage for a two hour concert back in the 70's my life changed for the better.
I was 18 in 1970, a friend played a song for you, it took my heart to a whole new level.
Thank you for this!! Best Birthday present for this 71 year old!!
I actually played with Leon in 96' Olympics at the tennis venue opening ceremony, it was one of my most fondest memories as a guitarist to have shared the stage with him, rip brother
Wow stumbled onto this today. What a blessing to hear these fantastic musicians young and healthy and firing on all cylinders. Brought back some great memories. Sadly we have lost them both.
We haven't lost anything only gained .. We call kick it, what's so sad about that? Humans are weird when it comes to leaving this planet.
Nothing sad at all about having these two dudes on this planet. You know we don't get out of here alive right?
@@margaretschaffner9133 The death is not what I was refering to specifically but the inability to see them perform live.
You're right about that.
I love it when talented musicians from two different genres play so well together!
Leon and Glen have a history playing together as studio musicians in LA, research The Wrecking Crew ( not the Dean Martin movie lol ).
A year later and this is still a treasure to watch and hear. They will live forever.
I MISS MY DEAREST LEON!
I’ve seen them both in concert - Glen just once, Leon several times. On the surface it seems they are so different, but old friends and great artists find their commonalities and make outstanding music together. Thank you for posting this.
A couple of influential musical giants.
Sitting here alone on a Friday night with my 2 dogs, enjoying the h*ll out of this beautiful music played by incredibly warm and talented musicians. I'm a rock, hard rock, blues, and jazz fan who only listened to my favorite music when I was young. I'm 73 now and thank God I loosened up and realized I just like great music and talent no matter the category. This session was fantastic and worth every minute spent here. What a gem! Take care, everyone, Peace and loosen up - you'll be glad.
Check out JJ Cale with Leon , Paradise Studios CA … I think 1979
Man terrific! I lost my Dad to Alzheimer's he was the smartest man in my life! To have to watch
him deteriorate for 10 years was hell. He was a WW-2 Okinawa survivor. My prays go to Mr.Campbell's
family and friends. When I was a kid I thought Glenn was just a hillbilly boy was I wrong! This is one
of the Best videos on YT. Two of the best ever here. RIP Leon and Glen both genius's ..
I agree. These guys are real players !
Glen's guitar playing is so brilliant and I have always loved his voice since i was a kid in the 60's. Leon Russell also, he never got the praise he should have. So many of the greats are gone, its sad.
Be glad for what you know
Who's gonna fill thier shoes. As George said
It's a good thing that you carry their music with you! Share it with friends and loved ones so it can continue on down the timeline. =)
@@kerrconkle4389 No one.
If you get a chance check out Billy Strings ,he’s a Breath of fresh air! A Legend in the making!
Leon Russell was amazing, i dont think some people realize how big he was
Glen Campbell is/was one of the GOATs on guitar, but since he wasn’t rock and roll, he’s kinda overlooked!🎶🎶🎶
It is hard to call someone as talented as Glen Campbell underrated, but I wish those unaware of his talent, especially on the guitar, could watch this video.
As a child of the 60's&70's, I grew up with these two. The thing I really dislike about today's music is there's no more pickers like Glen, Roy Clark, Jerry Reed, Chet Atkins, etc. There's no Leon Russell, Dr. John, Billy Preston, etc.
If these guys came through today, the "music makers" would pat them on the head, smile benignly, and tell then to go sit in the corner and not bother anyone. They's be told to do up their hair, get leather jackets, and invest in distortion pedals.....
Billy Strings is carrying the torch pretty well.
My dad used to sing and play Gentle on My Mind on guitar. He taught me to lay guitar when I was in 9th grade. We used to sing and play together. He's been gone 5 years, miss those days..
You have some beautiful memories of your dad to cherish, Beth. All the best.
Oh man. Beautiful just beautiful.
These two did a lot of the heavy lifting on many hits in the 60’s -too many to mention , so many they don’t even remember them . Had the pleasure to see Leon on one of his last tours with Dylan and he still had complete command . What a gem this session is especially now that they are both gone.
Incredible talent from these two guys, i’am glad someone had the sense to record them together, their talent is amazing. RIP Glen And Leon
@B Yes and if you look up old episodes of Shindig you can catch them playing together in like 1964 🙆🏻♀️
Remarkable. Fabulous.
Wonderful performance by all. I used to do a morning talk show in Cleveland, and Glen stopped by to promote his upcoming appearance. I got to play Gentle On My Mind with him. What a thrill for me since I’d done that song for years when I played in bars around Detroit. In my later years, I produced TV documentaries, including one on Alzheimer’s Disease. Glen was still touring, and he and his wife, Kim, sat down for an interview before his concert that night. He was still performing pretty well, but it was hard to see that incredible talent fading away.
Glen gave me chills when he started singing "You've Lost That Lovin Feelin" Bravo Glen and Leon ❤❤❤❤. And Leon nailed "You Don't Know Me".❤
I was going to say the same thing. I almost passed out from the hit of pure soul in Glen's unexpected zero to dead center perfect start. Not kidding.
so many people have no idea what an incredible guitarist glen campbell was
Was just thinking that. I did not realize he was so good when I was young.
We know
I am just blessed to be alive when these dudes did this.
Two of the best Nobody like them now The good ones are just about all gone Sad
One of the best sessions ever. RIP both of them.
I liked glen Campbell and Leon Russell. They play some nice music. My mom was in love with glen Campbell.... Her maiden name was Campbell!❤
By the time I get to phoenix..,.... WAS A GOOD ONE BY GLEN CAMPBELL..🌼
Ive been playing guitar for 55 years and sadly, wasn't until Glenn passed did I find out, he was one of the best guitarist ever. He could shred.
I saw GC with his kids backing him when the Alzheimer’s was setting in. He couldn’t remember the keys or his kids names but he was joyous and could still shred. His daughter (a wonderful talent) kept him on track in in the right key. So glad I got to see him
Eddie VAn Halen once said the only guitar lesson he ever wanted and received was from Glen Campbell
Not sure why but he seemed to be positioning himself publicly as a Vegas-lounge crooner, sans guitar . Then show up almost unannounced at a talk show or variety show WITH guitar and burn the place down with his mastery.
Wher you been Dude🎵🎵
I've been playing 50. I had no idea.
Where was this stuff sitting and why wasn't it ( they ) out there more?
I saw them both (separately) in the 90’s…each were very talented. Glen just shined. I can’t believe they both sang backup for Ricky Nelson who I was just thinking about today…I had a major crush on him back in the day. Oh boy…if only we could turn the clock back about 60 years… 🙏🏻❤️💕
Ricky and Glen both looked good with the Duke. Leon would have been a good guy cowboy too.
I'd forgotten how much I loved Glen Campbell..with leon Russell its icing on the cake❤❤
🎩🎹🎙❤️
WoW, just two dudes and a band!
Wow. Incredible session, such chemistry from all those yrs together in the Wrecking Crew. And was Glenn Campbell uber talented? I have never seen another singer/guitarist with such a range of skills, vocally and instrumentally. Awesome.
The best guitarist, the best pianist and two of the best guys ever!
My first time hearing Leon Russell was on Joe Cockers Mad Dogs and Englishmen album. Shows what amazing versatility he had given Glen Campbell and Joe Cocker are poles apart in music styles.
@marionoz9980 Glen Campbell and Leon Russel have known each other for years. Both were charter members of the Wreaking Crew, astellar group of LAs 1st call session musicians back in the 60s. Both of those guys played on a lot of the big hits from that era.
Singing this song for you. Brings me to tears every time. That was so beautiful. Love Leon Russell.
My wife and I keep coming back to this vid. So damn good!
What a great session. Spontaneous music by people that made the soundtracks of our lives.
Two natural talents. Glen just opens his mouth and perfection flows out and Leon channels that "something" that comes from another place. They can't help themselves. They're just insanely talented and gifted. Also, I never noticed how fine and long-fingered Leon's hands are.
Leon had the stretch. Master pianist/songwriter
Just stumbled on this gem of a video. Such a treat to see these two giants of modern music having fun and entertaining us all in the process. (And making lesser gifted musicians like myself think about giving up on the whole 'making music' thing altogether 🤣) What really caught me was when Glen suggests a little impromptu jam (at around 35:00) and they play something that -to my ears- could have come straight out of the Jery Reed catalogue (another giant).
It's finding little gems like these that keep me 'addicted' to exploring YT. 😀
RIP, GC, LR and JR... You will never be forgotten!
I was fortunate enough to buy the last two tickets to see Leon live at the Rams Head in Annapolis in 2016. Our chairs were literally at the foot of Leon’s piano bench. What a privilege it was see this great musician in such an intimate setting. RIP Leon
Glen is great but Leon is effortless....amazing. It's great to see how Glen respects Leon's talent.
Nothing should come after "Glen is great..." That's not a knock on Leon.
ua-cam.com/video/j9Tfm3syUOM/v-deo.html
replace "but" with "and".
They both started with humble roots and became THEE standard of grace and talent.
Man, if Glen Campbell were just a talented guitar player, capable of rising to the challenge of just about any situation (rehearsed or off-the-cuff), that would be one thing, but the man was also such a gifted vocalist that, at times it just doesn't seem fair to the rest of us that one person could be that good and, worse yet (ha!) make it look so effortless. What a gift to human ears he was!
One of the most underrated guitarist in music. Watching Glen shred was priceless.
Oh my freaking God!!!
How much blow will you boys need?
Yes,…
Please keep these videos coming. Thank you so very much
Thank you God’s of the algorithms for this incredible treasure bestowed upon me this morning. ❤️
Thank you Leon , Glen for your soul healing talent
🇨🇦❤️🙏🏻
how amazing these two guys rose from session studio recording musician to a solo singer composer artists
Glen couldn't read sheet music but was so gifted he played by ear and his guitar is heard as part of the famed "Wrecking Crew" studio musicians on recordings by an array of artists including Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Ricky Nelson, The Monkees, Merle Haggard, Wayne Newton, The Beach Boys, The Righteous Brothers, Jan & Dean and hundreds more. He also recorded over 60 albums under his name. Leon Russell is a literal giant of the industry, having appeared on albums for dozens of other great artists as well. This is 45+ minutes of two true musical geniuses at work. Thanks for sharing. We also recommend an In Session with Dr. John and Johnny Winter.
And don't forget to look up at how many hit songs these two maestros added their magic to. Leon was part of the Wrecking Crew as well & accompanied musicians from the Beach Boys to JJ Cale & countless in-between. Not to mention the voice of Glen which added magic to so many Jimmy Webb classics & more.
Well said, John.
Great playing and singing. A pleasure to listen to. Glad they recorded this so we could have it for all time.
TOW OLD SOULS GOD ALL MIGHTY HAS CALLED HOME / DON'T YOU MISS THEM / I DO / CAN THEY PLAY OR CAN THEY PLAY / THANK YOU STEVE LIDDYCOAT FOR SHARING
THAT'S TWO / NOT TOW / I AM SORRY / OLD AGE DOES THAT TO YOU EVERY TIME / DON'T GET OLD IT SUCKS BIG TIME HA HA HA
YOU ARE VERY WELCOME!
Wow. . Brings back memories, smells, feelings that I havent forgotten about. Just haven't felt them in a long time. I use to love watching Glenn Campbell.
Leon and Glen met when they were both "house musicians" on Shindig. They both had the spotlight on them a few times during the show's run, with Campbell doing an Elivis-style rockabilly number in one. Got to see Leon with the fabulous Edgar Winter about 40 years ago.
I saw him with Edgar, too, at the Diamond Club in Toronto.
Nice to read such a positive comment.
Wow! They can just play Anything and EVERYTHING!!!!! Awesome musicians!!!!
