Amazon Review
Already an accomplished poet and novelist before he ambled into the music business in his mid-'30s, Leonard Cohen has remained as musically influential as he is publicly enigmatic for four decades. This celebration of Cohen's songbook began as a free concert that quickly mushroomed into a star-studded live tribute film shot at Sydney's famed Opera House and Brighton Dome. Musically supervised by Hal Willner (who's produced similar recorded tributes to Mingus, Monk, Rota and Weill), it recasts Cohen's evocative, emotionally uncompromising songs in compelling performances by singers who range from fellow cult heroes Nick Cave and Beth Orton to energetic newcomer Teddy Thompson and even rock gods U2. The latter's powerful collaboration with Cohen himself on the signature "Tower of Song" bookends Martha Wainright's solo opening rendition of the composition, deftly underscoring the project's eclectic artisanship in the bargain. Cave somehow channels the title track through Chicago's South Side via Weimar Berlin, while Teddy Thompson ponders "The Future" with exuberance and The Handsome Family informs "Famous Blue Raincoat" with elegant melodrama. Other standouts include Rufus Wainwright's nouveau Tango work-up of "Everybody Knows," Perla Batalla's gorgeous, NorteƱo-seasoned "Bird On a Wire" and her collaborations with Cave and Julia Christenson on "Suzanne" and "Anthem." A collection that's both a savvy primer to Cohen's catalog and impressive artistic achievement in its own right. --Jerry McCulley

Had to give a second comment on this album:

To start with:
To many people tried to use Cohen songs without even ever coming close to
what his lyrics and music stands for... pure poetry

well here is an album with artists that do understand and successfully
do more than just covering his poetry...
this album is what one calls a syntheses of the magic of Cohen and the uniqueness
of the preforming artists...
together they are more than the sum of the parts

what I try to say is that Cohen himself probably couldn't top this product
Can't stop listing to this album... everybody who loves Cohen will love this
album... my fav until now is "If it be your will..." never heard it sung like this
and it goes right through you... but all songs are in a way unique as they are familiar

once again... this is a find of thousands... thx so very much
