It was used to signal the episode's theme of seeing familial bonding and pressing past bubblegum culture toward the passion, even when painful, in life.

I just came across this release because it's being printed on vinyl by People in a Position to Know (PIAPTK) records. It's sounds crazy (and you maybe right ;), but it's a pretty awesome project covering Billy Joel songs as though they were Leonard Cohen songs. Here's the description from the label:...

There are bundles for the album up on the official store with shirts and journals: US Store: https://leonardcohen.shopfirebrand.com EU store doesn't appear updated yet with the vinyl or bundles, but I assume it will be today or at least soon: Barnes and Noble in the US has an exclusive White vinyl v...

I believe that all of the creative work is available to view (under the TF guidelines), but some of the personal correspondence is sealed until after Cohen's death.

As many of us here are interested in poetry and its reach from Cohen and beyond, I thought I'd post a link to a small press where I serve as co-editer, Temporary Vandalism Recordings (T.V. Recordings). We publish a small poetry magazine twice a year called The Silt Reader, as well as the occasional ...

There was an add in the paper this week for an LA opening at Lemmales Sunset 30th of June.

I went to the screening in LA last night, and I have mixed feelings about it. The show opened with Perla (Bird on a Wire) and Julie (A Singer Must Die), both accompanied by guitar. Martha Wainwright then played 4 covers before the director was introduced, who then, in turn, introduced Leonard--who w...

I didn't bid on eBay, nor did I bit on the ones listed on Abebooks the week after Indigo started shipping...I was bidding my time instead, and it worked out well, for a change, eh?--thanks to this thread

I just visited the store today and picked up what they said was the last one. 20$ is sure a lot nicer of a price than 200$ on eBay

The show is also available as a free podcast, so if you sign up to get it, time is not much of a factor

In addition to having this month's book selection for the station, Leonard Cohen is scheduled to be on KCRW's Bookworm program June 22, 2006. Those in the Los Angeles area can listen on 89.9 FM, but the show is also available as a podcast and in streaming audio once it has aired (kcrw.com). It's a g...

A friend of mine works in the concert industry in the US and told me that a Cohen show they proposed at their venue this year was recently turned down because Cohen is working on putting together a full tour next summer. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

The same image is used for their instore poster adverts. Yeah!

I saw the Canadian film Saint Ralph a few weeks back, and it had a version by Gord Dowdie (or Downie? The guy from the Tragically Hip) that I thought was quite good and integrated movingly into the film. No soundtrack exists however and I have not seen any copies of it available in other formats. To...
