Being the product manager for Leonard Cohen’s albums for Sony Music Germany, I have often visited your website for reference in the past. I now have the honor to also work a German-language Leonard Cohen tribute album which we will release on the occasion of the master’s 80th birthday in September. The album, which wil be available on a digipak CD, on double vinyl and as download, features 17 exclusive recordings by a prominent mix of both established and upcoming new artists from every field of Germany’s popular music scene. All lyrics have been translated into German by Berlin-based author Misha Schoeneberg, and the whole project has been curated in close cooperation with Robert Kory.

tolle Idee und das wird sicher eine wunderbare CD. Da wären wir gerne mit dabei gewesen. Vielleicht gibt es ja mal wieder etwas Ähnliches. Unsere Zuhörer bisher waren jedenfalls immer total begeistert - auch ganz eingefleischte und kritische Cohen-Fans. Unser nächster Auftritt ist hier:
