 Leon and Mary were IN LOVE Dec 31, 2007
By nanmcm
"nannybird"
I've been waiting for many years for this album to be released on CD. My sisters and I know every word to every song, and this Christmas was made all the more special when I surprised them both with this 1976 favorite. From the bass beat of the opening track ("Rainbow in Your Eyes") to the island rhythm of "Love's Supposed to Be That Way" to the sultry "Satisfy You," Leon and Mary don't fail to satisfy. I don't know how long their marriage lasted, but it was worth it if only to put out this collection of love songs. Their harmonies are mesmerizing, and you will HAVE to dance to many of these tracks. Yes, there are a couple of schmaltzy ones in the mix, but overall, it's an amazing collection of work. You can tell they were crazy about each other.

Rocking Good Harmony from a Master. Feb 11, 2008
By Harry Johnson
"Delta Man"
Leon is one of my all time unsung heroes, I have all the albums and have seen him live on several occasions. The Wedding Album was a constant car tape when it first came out and I am blasted that we meet up again. The tracks are sheer exuberant honky tonk good times and the pairing was truly inspirational. Leon at his finest, put it on replay and learn to love this warm strong rocker, the vocals and backing are just awesome. On a goood system they rattle the rafters and send your spirits up there too!! YES You love this album in a place where there's no space or time!

At Last! Aug 15, 2008
By Wolfee
I have been searching for this on LP for the last 28 years. Someone "borrowed" mine from my collection. Most places I contacted had never heard of it. Some looked at me like I was crazy. I have told my wife about this album and the version of "Daylight". Now finally she can hear what I have been searching for. This is one of the most soulful albums every produced (have over 5000 albums in collection, know what I'm talking about). Buy it while you caan!!

Another great album Feb 06, 2010
By J. Bezenah
Love this album. Since purchasing it, I have listened to it over and over and haven't tired of it. I remember hearing it as a child in the 70's on my parents' turntable, and am enjoying revisiting it as an adult. Russell purists may balk at the inclusion of his then-wife, but I find it adds another layer to his genius.

Leon at his best Oct 19, 2009
By Mertz O'Neill
"music seeker"
This album was not exactly a chart-topper when it was released, but when I listened to it back when, I was instantly hooked by the great harmony between Leon and Mary. The back and forth, both vocally and instrumentally, as they both play a mean piano, is captivating. The lyrics on this disc reveal their emotions and tell the story of their "Wedding". Anyone who digs Leon Russell will love this album, he sounds upbeat and excited to be singing with Mary, who has her own style and unique voice. A rare find, as I have been looking on Amazon and other sites for over a year and when it surfaced, I grabbed it up immediately. Highly recommended for all Leon fans!
