Judy Collins Sings Leonard Cohen: Democracy collects ten performances of these tunes from the singer's Elektra catalog, one from her fine 2000 album Judy Collins Live at Wolf Trap, one from her 1967 album, Wildflowers, and three new recordings.
This and "Priests" both come from this seminal album where Collins covered not only Cohen, but Joni Mitchell as well, and scored big with "Both Sides Now." The album is given added significance because it was the first to feature her own songs.

His 'First girl I loved' - covered by Judy Collins as 'First boy I loved' on her WILDFLOWERS album - is simply one of the most beautiful songs ever written to a first love, looking back with honesty and tenderness on the gifts exchanged, both physical and emotional.
Mike's other songs on this album run the gamut from love songs ('Painting box' and the eternally lovely 'Gently tender') to humorous looks at our place in the world ('Little cloud' and 'The hedgehog's song') to a song offering encouragement to the listener to reach for his full potential ('You know what you could be').
This has been singled out by many reviewers as not only the high point of this album, but of the band's career as well -- and to be sure, from this period onward, it remains one of their most adventurous, popular pieces.
