SPIN magazine gives Leonard "Comeback Of The Year" for 2009

[Phantom Stranger]

The January/February issue of SPIN magazine has a one-page article on Leonard Cohen in their summation of 2009. They give him the award for best comeback of the year, citing the marvelous live shows Leonard put on throughout the year. Just thought people here would like to hear that nugget of news.

Can you give us a link to it? Good on SPIN for recognizing the penultimate truth. Thanks for letting us know, Phantom Stranger .

I saw that, a really good article. His name is even second on the cover, right between Kings of Leon and (I think) U2

I would be happy to comply with your request, but it appears SPIN has left the article off their website. The article itself is only a half-page worth of prose, set off by a photo of Cohen performing in concert from 2009. Probably worth reading at the news stand or book store if you get the chance, but not a piece in-depth enough to buy for one issue.

Thanks, Phantom Stranger. "Comeback Of The Decade" ought to go to Leonard, if they have one of those.
