    Dixie Lullaby

    Originally posted on November 13, 2021

    On this day in 2016 the music world lost the infinitely talented and influential Leon Russell. Today we celebrate with a ‘Dixie Lullaby’.

    Sleep well…

    “Gather round me people, got a song to sing
    'Bout that sweet magnolia time
    Black-eyed Susan made some catfish stew
    And papa brought some homemade wine”
