Was very fortunate to see Leonard 4 years ago. Obviously, if you had the opportunity, you went. I have the ticket stub framed.

Popular Problems is one of my favourite albums by anyone. Unfortunately, it is the only Leonard vinyl I own. I hope to expand that in my lifetime.

As I often do when a musician I like dies, I'm binging on their music. I did it with Bowie, then again with Prince, and now with Leonard Cohen. Currently listening to his debut The Songs of Leonard Cohen, which is essential for any good music collection. Such an intense, bare, stripped down album. And Cohen's lyrics have so many layers it could take someone years to even come close to peeling them all away.
