He was actually done with it, but a financial need forced Canadian bard Leonard Cohen, who has now passed eighty, to go on tour again. It was not a must, but led to a major reappraisal for his timeless repertoire and sonorous voice full of depth. He was welcomed all over the world, which made Cohen himself more and more excited.

Anyone who has ever seen Cohen live does not have to doubt, but also those who missed him will benefit from this tasteful and great sounding registration. (MR)more
