d halfnote Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 Anyone have an idea who played the gtr / slide gtr parts on this ? Tightrope by Leon Russell I know he worked a lot w / Jesse Davis but he also played gtr himself & had tons of other connections..... d=halfnote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Fraser Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 One of these guys probably. Someone else can perhpas refine it a bit. Leon Russell vocals, guitar, bass, piano Don Preston guitar, vocals Joey Cooper guitar I'm assuming that's not the Don Preston who was an original member of Mothers of Invention, & still gigs regularly with his own band in LA, & internationally with Grandmothers. I never knew THAT Don to play guitar. Scott Fraser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryz Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 George Benson? just kidding LOL! I liked the flip side of Tight Rope which was the great jazz standard: This Masquerade, written by Leon Russell and covered by George Benson. Another one of my favorite songs written by Leon Russell, was Delta Lady covered by Joe Cocker...sorry, I don't know which one of the three guitar players credited on the Carney album played slide on Tight Rope, but he did a great job! Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
