Leon Russell. The Master of Space and Time has fallen on hard critical times. It's just that his brand of severely limited, gospel styled rock and roll only works in certain contexts. It was fine with Joe Cocker and forty other women, kids and dogs, but once Delaney and Bonnie got divorced, it all began to go a little flat. None of which has stopped Leon from accumulating large sums of money, and putting Tulsa back on the map as freak capital of the world, it just hasn't done much for him artistically.

No sooner signed Delaney and Bonnie for $200,000 than couple separated. Rest of industry, undisguisedly envious, predicts he will go too far and fall. Seems unworried. Earns about $250,000 a year plus stock options. Ranges out from roomy Manhattan cooperative to spend evenings catching new acts; hobnobs with the Beatles, has even...
...year to the Soviet Union in exchange for urea and ammonia that the company would sell in the U.S. That, Hammer predicts, would lead to a whole series of metal, gas and construction deals with the U.S.S.R. that could run into billions of dollars.
