Jews harp/jaw harp question
Does anybody know where to find the concert vid where Leonard explains that he's going to be playing the jew's harp, and that it has no religious significance, and that he is the only Jew who plays it professionally?

I found it! Ghent, August 15, 2012, right before Democracy.

Cool, Helen.
Can you post a link here to it?

Sure. But I'm not going to say WHERE... you'll either have to refer to the setlist for this show or else watch a lot of Leonard Cohen concert footage.. 

Re: Jews harp/jaw harp question
LOL... That won't be a problem, when I have some serious time.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Re: Jews harp/jaw harp question
I don't know whether they appreciate such links. But I have a bigger problem, somehow the sound "disappeared"(?????) from the recording. When I'm back from holiday I will check what has happened or retrieve my backup. So later. (hopefully)lizzytysh wrote:Can you put the link here, too, TonVH?

I think that the person who promoted the jew harp was David, King of Israel. You know. that bloke who used to play secret chords so as to please the Lord.

For some reason, links to YouTube seem to be OK but not links to downloads. I have no idea why this distinction is drawn.lizzytysh wrote:If you mean here, we post links all the time.

Oh, okay... I didn't realize that, which I may have if I ever downloaded anything, but I just don't.
Thanks, Wendy
