	Songs of Leonard Cohen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cohen's lonely, pathetic, and all-too-human songs were a marked contrast against the feel-good hippie music and culture dominating at the time.
		Songs of Leonard Cohen was released on CD in 1989, while a digipak edition was released in some European countries in 2003.
		The song "Sisters of Mercy" was the inspiration for the name of the Gothic rock band The Sisters of Mercy, who also took a line from the song "Teachers" as the title of their 1992 compilation album Some Girls Wander By Mistake.

	Leonard Cohen
		Cohen still isn't much of a singer, and his 60s rugged individualist brand of sexism is continually evident, starting with the back cover photo of a chick in a towel doing his typing.
		Cohen's a bit more plain-spoken than usual, with looks at romance ranging from savage ("Is This What You Wanted") to plaintive ("I Tried To Leave You"), a clever comment on social divisions ("There Is A War"), and an incisive look at the life of pop songwriters ("Chelsea Hotel #2").
		The songs are unbelievably overextended, with eight of the nine tracks running six minutes or longer, even the mind-bogglingly dull instrumental "Tacoma Trailer." The large cast of musicians includes Bob Glaub, Lee Sklar, Ed Greene, Freddie Washington, Paul Jackson Jr.

	Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan
		Leonard Cohen is a university-educated formalistic poet who has moved in an opposite direction with his recent discovery that a good lyric poem could equally be a good song.
		The corpus of Leonard Cohen's songs is nowhere as large as that of Bob Dylan's.
		Cohen's most energetic condemnation of possessiveness in love is found in "Master Song," a song about the poet's old sweetheart, who is perhaps a personification of poetry herself, who has now come under the control of an autocratic master.

		Cohen and Robinson talked about ideas for songs, and eventually, when Cohen went to one of her son's piano recitals, he asked Robinson if she would collaborate with him on the next record.
		Cohen approached the vocal sessions strategically, due to the limits of the studio and the inward-looking nature of the material.
		In keeping with the long-held Cohen schema of contrasting his gritty voice against the lush backing of several female vocalists, some of the songs feature as many as 20 backing vocal tracks, all performed by Robinson; many songs have between six and 12 such tracks, she notes.

	Leonard Cohen - Ten New Songs - Columbia
		Leonard Cohen has produced some of the most intense and deeply introspective poetry/lyrics this generation, or generations before it, has been blessed with.
		There are ten songs, all with sparse instrumentation, depending largely on mood setting drum beats, piano taps,etc and Leonard's deeply whispered meanderings through the darkness of life which gives no salvation, only realization that life is a struggle.
		Cohen sings of despair of alcohol/drug battles that cannot be won; of lost trust; of misplaced faith.

		Cohen is such an old-fashioned bard that it is often difficult to believe he inhabits the same literary landscape that nurtures postmodern experimentalism.
		To many, Leonard Cohen is known only as a sub-mainstream musician and sometime theologian; yet the scope of his artistic genius reaches far beyond music and religious thought.
		At times conventional, at times avant-garde, Cohen is a writer that transcends genre and accurate definition, and in doing so probes the collective unconscious for themes which pertain to all of modern humanity.

	Recent Songs - Leonard Cohen - Music Reviews (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The first thing Leonard Cohen's music fans noticed about his sixth new studio album, given the typically open-ended title Recent Songs, was that, musically, it marked a return to the gypsy folk sound of his early records after the incongruous arrangements Phil Spector imposed on its predecessor,...
		The cover of "The Lost Canadian (Un Canadient Errant)" was enlivened by a mariachi arrangement, and the album ended with "Ballad of the Absent Mare," an allegory about a cowboy's search for a horse that ended with the suggestion that the pursuit was only a romantic game.
		Though often abstract, Recent Songs suggested Cohen had regained a certain equilibrium after a long dark period.
