Description | SUPERB 1976 PERFORMANCE FROM COHEN WHILE ON HIS NEW SKINS TOUR. This magisterial concert by the inimitable Canadian singer-songwriter and poet, Leonard Cohen, was broadcast live from Montreux, Switzerland, towards the end of his 55-date European tour of 1976. Half-a-dozen further songs promote Leonard''s then most recent album, the comparatively lush "New Skin for the Old Ceremony". Undoubted highlights are his paean to a lover from the past, Janice Joplin, on Chelsea Hotel #2, the chilling roll-call of Who by Fire, I Tried to Leave You, Lover, Lover, Lover and the plaintive Is This What You Wanted. There are two songs performed too which do not originate on studio albums; the rare Do I have To Dance All Night was only otherwise issued as a 45rpm single in Europe, in a live version recorded earlier on this same tour in Paris. Finally there is Store Room, a 1967 song that remained resolutely non-album until being added as a bonus to the 2007 reissue of his debut. |
