Leonard Cohen on "Friday Night!" with Ralph Benmergui
Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2018 1:05 am
Two of my favorite Leonard Cohen performances have just been uploaded to YouTube, in better quality than I've ever seen them before. I'm talking about 'The Future' and 'Closing Time' as performed on 12th February 1993 on the television show 'Friday Night!'. Leonard and the band are on fire! Watch the videos here:

(BTW, the 1989 (or 1990) performances of 'Tower Of Song' and 'Who By Fire' from the show 'Night Music' are also available on the same channel.)
The interview with Leonard from the same show is available from the CBC archives:
