Elton John & Leon Russell ~ The Union

Elton John pays tribute to his longtime “idol” Leon Russell by recording a full album with the maverick singer/songwriter -- with the assistance of producer T-Bone Burnett, who had the duo record live in the studio.

"Piano Licks Are Traded with Joyous Abandon, and the Spirit of Intimacy Shines Through.", 4 Stars Out of 5 -- "An Often-Brilliant Album of Southern-Fried Grooves and Gospel-Soul Ballads...", 4 stars out of 5 -- "This gathering of old-timers with something still to say, if not prove, seems special indeed."
