In reply to kevin stephens:
I'm afraid I'm a self-confessed Leonard Cohen fanatic. Current road music in the car:
Popular Problems - every track is a cracker but 'Almost like the blues' is my favourite
Ten New Songs - again every track is great but check out 'That don't make it Junk' with the line 'I fought against the bottle but I had to do it drunk' and 'Boogie Street'
You Want It Darker - his last album bought just before he kicked the bucket. Apparently he was in so much pain that he had to record in sitting in a specially constructed medical chair. Amazingly the album is one of his best.
Whoever said he is too gloomy ? He cheers me up. Feel like I've lost an old friend.
