Los Angles Times finally mentions Leonard Cohen's Old Ideas

Post by bridger15 »

The snooty Los Angeles Times finally deigned to mention the success of Leonard Cohen's album Old Ideas. And they published it in their online blog, not the hard copy newspaper to which I subscribe.

Adele, Lana Del Rey and Leonard Cohen lead the pop charts

Elsewhere in the top-10, Leonard Cohen's "Old Ideas" bows at No. 3, having sold 41,000 copies. The 12th studio album from the legendary artist is his best-ever sales week since SoundScan began tracking music sales data in 1991, reports Billboard. The 77-year-old singer has been back in the public's eye the last few years. In 2009 he staged his first U.S. tour in nearly 15 years and played the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival

Tsk, tsk, such a pity that it took them so long to come around to giving acclaim to someone who lives in those environs.
Edit - And that's the best they can do?
