Description

At a time when a growing number of pop songwriters were em
acing a more explicitly poetic approach in their lyrics, the 1967 debut album from Leonard Cohen introduced a songwriter who, rather than being inspired by “serious” literature, took up music after establishing himself as a published author and poet. The ten songs on Songs of Leonard Cohen are beautifully constructed and artful in a way few (if any) other lyricists would approach for some time.Heavyweight vinyl produced by Columbia Records in 2016.
