Stranger in a Strange Land Leon Russell & Don Preston
========================== with the Shelter People
Leon Russell is one of the greats. He has written many great tunes and
played with bands like the Rolling Stones. He is in the same class as
Todd Rundgren - ie. few know of his many many contributions. This tune,
performed with The Shelter People, is an undiscovered modern anthem.
This was transcribed from a live version so a few words may be off. -
