Re: is any one here a fan of Leonard Cohen?

I love his stuff.
Have every album of his (just about...I don't think I ever got around to
replacing DEATH OF A LADIES MAN from vinyl to CD).
Be glad to talk about just about any song of his...

Poor guy.
He's over 70 years old...still going strong...but it sounds as though he got
swindled out of millions of dollars he was planning to use for retirement.
So, it sounds as though he's about to hit the road again...just sort of hope
he's doing it more because he wants to (as opposed to having to do so...).
