Once he & Edgar Winter were on stage together, opening a show for the Marshall Tucker Band in St. Louis. It was kind of strange at first because they did an Edgar song that Leon sang & then a Leon song that Edgar sang.

I also got to see the "Wedding" tour where he & Mary had interlocked black & white baby grand pianos, singing to each other.

And I saw him later, when he was pretty old, in a small club up really close.
