This page compares the various best of Leon Russell CD packages that have been released in the US.
The Best of Leon CD in the first column, below, is no longer available.  It was replaced by Gimme Shelter and Retrospective. They and The Best of Leon Russell (last column) are all available. Gimme Shelter "may" be out of print.

Retrospective and Gimme Shelter are my recommendations if i were to choose one or two of these. Gimme Shelter is a two CD collection with two tracks from very early in Leon's career, pre-Asylum Choir.

Looking for a particular song?  Check out my Leon Songfinder page.
