Hit: 3 Stars
This is a nice CD for Cohen fans, but this is not the White Album II.
Aside from his few "hits" of the 1960s from his first album or two, there's
only a few new songs here that are worth much. Cohen is adept at vague poetic imagery, but not a master poet or songwriter. Most of his albums were full of bunk. Besides, this man is not some saint, he's as guilty of sin and waywardness as anyone. I found this album the same as his first; with an intriguing luster, but largely vapid, tinged with self-righteousness. Cohen excels at concealing himself and meaning in his lyrics, which in the end defies high craftsmanship.
Strictly average.
Live In London Poster
For over four decades, Leonard Cohen has been one of the most important and influential songwriters of our time, a figure whose body of work achieves greater depths of mystery and meaning as time goes on. His songs have set a virtually unmatched standard in their seriousness and range. Sex, spirituality, religion, power - he has relentlessly examined the largest issues in human lives, always with a full appreciation of how elusive answers can be to the vexing questions he raises. But those questions, and the journey he has traveled in seeking to address them, are the ever-shifting substance of his work, as well as the reasons why his songs never lose their overwhelming emotional force. Documentaries, awards, tribute albums and the ongoing march of artists eager to record his songs all acknowledge the peerless contribution Cohen has made to what one of his titles aptly calls "The Tower of Song."In 2008 Leonard Cohen embarked on his first tour in 15 years. Quickly recognized as musical folklore in the making, 29 of the original dates sold out almost immediately, leaving fans and critics alike hailing the show as a once in a lifetime experience. By popular demand, the Canadian/UK tour was extended and by the end of that year it had reached 84 markets worldwide, selling more than 700,000 tickets. The Live In London release fully captures and recreates the extraordinary show from that tour that earned Cohen more than 80 five-star reviews for his performances.
