Re: The first note - how you found LC and how it affected you
Hi Hydriot, Again, thank you. I just went through them all. I always get such a kick out of reading 'the first time experiences' ;-) :D . Ran across yours - on Hydra of all places! What a great story! I had tried to do an advanced search and came up with nothing (or everything :lol: ), so I really a...

Re: Sydney Concerts
Mary, there were a plethora of thought and words which did not escape. We would have needed months to get all of those out. However my most important words did flow when I thanked him for his contribution to my life and to the world. I am still smiling and the memory of that wonderful moment will l...

Re: Sydney Concerts
Mikeaus and Henning, It is so wonderful to read about these priceless encounters - thank you so much. As kind and gracious as the man is, how does anyone get beyond those few words exchanged? There must be a plethora of thoughts and words on the inside but, do they actually escape? Were either of yo...

Re: Interview with Promoter Rob Hallett and possible 2009 dates
I do hope someone on this tour is keeping a journal - I'd love to hear some behind the scenes stories of the tour and reactions to various shows. Once he's finished working so hard on the tour, maybe someone will convince Leonard to do an interview where he reflects on the shows and shares some sto...

Re: Artists similar to Leonard Cohen
If you are looking for someone who is doing something musically which has a lot of the features of Cohen's early work, and who has a similarly deep voice, then you might try the music of Jim Yamouridis, an Australian of Greek descent now living and plying his trade in France (at least last time I l...

Hi MaryB, Check out the thread "How were you first introduced to the words of Leonard Cohen?" on page 2 of Comments and Questions. I think there's also a similar thread elsewhere, since I seem to remember answering this question at least twice. All good things, John E Thank you John for p...

Re: Auckland, Jan 22
Hi Greg, Thanks so much for the response. I did not mean for you to disclose exact ages :oops: , a vague idea would have been fine. The reason I asked these questions is because it seems to me (and I may be way off base on this) that after an extended period of listening to music, no matter how well...
