LEON RUSSELL ROAD (Well, it's about time!)
Leon Russell, the world renowned musician, owned a recording studio in the 1970's in the Tulsa Pearl called Church Studio, a former castle-like Church in The Pearl District. Tons of music history went down there, including recording the likes of Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, J.J. Cale, The Gap Band, and more.
To honor him during the revival of the recording studio, The Pearl District Neighborhood Association is placing honorary street... signs (LEON RUSSELL ROAD) outside the studio on 3rd Street between Utica and Peoria on November 6, 2010.
The section of the street that will be renamed is Third Street from Peoria Avenue to South Utica Avenue. To celebrate the dedication, the Pearl District Association and city of Tulsa will officially unveil the new Leon Russell Road signs at 7 p.m. Nov. 6.
