Leonard Cohen’s Live In London is en route from Columbia as either a DVD
or 2 CD set on March 31. Recorded live on July 17, 2008 at London’s
02 Arena, one of Europe’s largest indoor venues
during Cohen’s 2008 World Tour, Live
In London offers classic Cohen songs drawn from the artist’s 40-year
career. Cohen’s first newly recorded release since 2004’s gold-certified Dear
Heather, the Live In London collection fully captures and recreates the extraordinary show that earned
Cohen, who celebrated his 40th year as a Columbia Records artist in 2007, more
than 80 five-star reviews for performances during his fall 2008 UK and European
tour.
You can get a sneak
preview of it via a stream of “Suzanne” at www.amazon.com/leonardcohen. (And, you guessed
it, you can preorder the album at Amazon too!)
Incidentally, with
his 2008 World Tour selling more than 700,000 tickets across 84 shows
worldwide, Leonard Cohen is coming to New York City’s
Beacon Theatre this week February 19 to perform his first U.S. concert in
15 years. Go HERE for more details on that; a full U.S. tour is slated for later this
year.
