The feud was real.
If you met Joe Cocker first and got his autograph, then walked over to Leon with the same 
item, Leon wouldn’t sign it. “No way.” Not that day. Not under those circumstances.
And this wasn’t normal behavior. Leon would usually sign anything for anyone. But that day, 
he wasn’t doing it.
Joe Cocker went on to become a Rock & Roll Hall of Famer. Globally recognized. Massive 
career.
But in Oklahoma?
Leon Russell is different. He’s ours.
Ask the question straight up: Do you like Joe better than Leon?
“No way. I’m an Okie.”
Sometimes it’s not about charts or awards. It’s about where you’re from and who you 
claim.
