EXTRAORDINARY 5xCD BOX-SET OF RARE LIVE COHEN \u2022 Beginning his music career in 1967 at the age of 33, Leonard Cohen had spent the later 1950s and early-mid 1960\u2019s as a poet and novelist. His first album, Songs of Leonard Cohen (1967), was followed by three more records of what was essentially acoustic folk music. 1977\u2019s effort, Death Of A Ladies Man, co-written and produced by Phil Spector, was a move away from his previous minimalist sound, and for the next 40 years he released a fascinating and enticing body of work, albeit sporadically and often occasionally (during the 1990s he released just one new studio album.) \u2022 Remaining today, more than 6 years since his sad passing, a true icon of the contemporary music age, Cohen has both kept and attracted millions of fans, new and old, and still sits at the top table of the rock and pop hierarchy. \u2022 This new boxed set collection brings together five CDs of obscure, live recordings from across the great man\u2019s career, all originally broadcast on television or FM Radio between 1968 and 1983. Including full shows performed in Zurich, Switzerland and Reykjavik, Iceland, in addition to a full disc of radio in-house sessions recorded for the BBC, this new release will prove a delight for Leonard Cohen fans worldwide.
