Never immediately struck me as being an acid-head - now I know better.
It makes perfect sense that that voice was emerging from the bottom of a well.
Has anyone else seen this documentary by Nick Broomfield "Leonard and Marianne." Great stuff:
I respect the artistry of Joni Mitchell, Cohen and Neil Young but I can't click with the music.
woah! ha ha. yes. i think once i'm past worrying about tomorrow i might have another crack. check out the property i'm moving in to so to speak...My Mum has expressed an interest in a small dose in recent years and loves LC. This might be the tipping point. I knew about the documentary but not the acid aspect. Time to drop this documentary with her and then suggest half a tab each one Sunday afternoon. This could get so weird.
I went to his Greek island it was shit I got the first ferry back. Escape, escape!
well certainly i know what you mean - but there is something archaic and whispering about it. best heard to effect in mccabe and mrs millerIt's the least psychedelic music ever made. Just a (spiritually) fat bloke whinging,
There's no-one like you LukaYou're like me. Half colonial. It gives you magic powers. Not in thrall to English caste system
Ah yeah. I do remember listening to them fairly recently with a view to putting on Discogs and it went back on the shelf, so maybe there is some inner turmoil I need to address.the band too!

what's curious about cohen and LSD is that acid is usually associated with the most shiny and technological music of that era. all the space rock stuff is top heavy with electronics and processing (beatles, ash ra tempel, jimi hendrix etc) There's precious little truly acidic folk music (like Comus I suppose) and Leonard Cohen really makes sense of that connection.
