Legendary American singer and pianist Leon Russell has entertained the world for five decades, getting his start as an in-demand Wrecking Crew session player and playing on hundreds of hit records before he began releasing his own albums in 1967. Following his 72nd birthday, Leon Russell releases a new studio album, titled Life Journey.
Life Journey features newly-written original songs and Russell's turns on classics that resonate with the two-time GRAMMY® winner as important to his musical trajectory. Recorded and mixed by Al Schmitt at Capitol Studios, the album is produced by Tommy LiPuma and executive produced by Elton John, with whom Russell most recently collaborated for 2010's critically acclaimed album, The Union.
"This is a record of my musical journey through life," Russell writes in a package essay for Life Journey. "It reflects pieces of things that I have done and things I never did, for one reason or another."
