Re: Leonard Has Passed Away

I was in floods when I first heard the news this morning, and have been struggling to maintain my composure all day. I really do feel a sense of grief like I haven't felt about anyone or anything in decades. Leonard touched me deeper than any singer/songwriter ever. Gonna miss you, man. Been a fan f...

Re: Everybody Knows (Sharon Robinson album)

Cheers John - CDBaby's was marginally cheaper, even with the international postage. I just received this email from CDBaby: Your CDs have been gently taken from our CD Baby shelves with sterilized contamination-free gloves and placed onto a satin pillow. A team of 50 employees inspected your CDs and...

Re: Everybody Knows (Sharon Robinson album)

Why thank you :) Yes, they ship to the UK and at a much more reasonable price. That'll do nicely!

Everybody Knows (Sharon Robinson album)

I tried to buy a copy of this via Amazon.co.uk shortly before Christmas. There was a copy in stock at GBP10.83 so I ordered it, but then got the message that it was not in stock after all. It never arrived, so today I cancelled the order (Amazon didn't charge me anything). I see now that it's only a...

Re: Leonard Cohen: TOUR 2008

There doesn't seem to be a specific seating plan for the O2 concert when buying via Ticketmaster so this diagram might help:

Re: Leonard Cohen: TOUR 2008

Hi Don't worry about this Manchester Guardian readers thing for the 18th. TicketMaster is still displaying ticket sales for that night, on sale from tomorrow morning... No. The date is wrongly quoted in some sources. It is Thursday 19 June which is reserved for Guardian readers. Last year, The Inde...

James Blunt namechecks Leonard (FWIW)

'It's Cohen to be grim for Blunt', puns Brit rag The Sun at http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/article616582.ece . Apparently the bearded balladeer won't be having a 'fun Christmas' but will instead be holed up in his Ibiza farmhouse listening to his favourite singer-songwriters, LC amo...

Chelsea Hotel No 2 in the Guardian

http://arts.guardian.co.uk/filmandmusic/story/0,,2091957,00.html my favourite word in songwriting history is actually exceedingly workaday, an unassuming, half-muttered "that", the second-to-last word in Leonard Cohen's Chelsea Hotel No 2: "That's all, I don't even think of you that ...
