I hope others are watching this incredible show. It’s on CBS.

Elton is a admirer of Brandi Carlile. He asked her to collaborate on the album **Who Believes in Angels?**

Tonight is a concert supporting the album.  
It includes them singing Elton’s hits and new songs from their album.

I really hope this concert is released to Paramount+.

I don’t know about that but coincidentally I watched this last night:

Brandi has collaborated with a lot of artists.

Elton had eye infections last year and almost quit performing.

He’s stretching a lot on this album with Brandi. It’s a different style.

I like Elton’s album with Leon Russell, _The Union_. It also pushed Elton to play differently.

I saw her with Tanya Tucker. She and Tanya wrote a very nice song, recorded an album. It actually won Grammy.

I can’t remember where I saw it.

I saw the Elton/Leon doc too.
