Re: "Leonard Cohen: Hipgnosis Acquires ‘Hallelujah’ Singer’s Catalog"

There was a discussion on this phenomenon on the radio about a month ago. The just seems to be that with all the downloading, et al vs. albums, etc., many artists are deciding to benefit from their work in a lump sum, so they and their family members/eventual benefactors can benefit according to how...

Re: "Leonard Cohen: Hipgnosis Acquires ‘Hallelujah’ Singer’s Catalog"

What am I missing? Surely something. How could Leonard's "estate" have sold the rights to Leonard's earlier songs, when he himself had lost them, either early on thru deceptive practices for some, and later on, through deceptive Kelley Lynch for others. It seems the only songs that Leonard...

Re: New Book - Who By Fire, Matti Friedman

Thanks for posting that long review, Bev. It has been frustrating over the years to pretty much just see that photo that we're all familiar with, and that's it. It's heartening to know that we can now find out more about the time he spent with the soldiers, and that the information is substantive. I...

Re: Leonard, Marianne, and Me: Magical Summers on Hydra (new book)

This is my review of Judy's book: Real People, Real Life, Up Close & Personal ~ Unvarnished As a follower of Leonard Cohen since 1970, I like many others have craved as much information as possible about his and Marianne's life on the idyllic, almost mythical, Hydra. We make pilgrimages to try t...

Re: Kenneth Forsyth has passed away.

Your tribute to Ken is poignant and beautiful, Wijbe. It's wonderful that you have so many and such a variety of photos to choose from... and with so many different friends. As always, your production is sensitive and masterful. Ken would have loved it. I'm sorry that he had to be its subject. ~ Liz...

Re: Kenneth Forsyth has passed away.

That's a wonderful photo of Ken, Eija and Jarkko. I love your simple tribute, Maarten, especially your last sentence. Earlier today, I was thinking how even if a person isn't good with remembering names, it wouldn't take many descriptives to make them remember Ken. With so many friends of his postin...

Re: Swasticas sprayed on Leonard Cohen’s Montreal synagogue

This is horrifying and heart breaking. And it is terrifying in terms of the future. I am livid. Yes, the poison from here has spread. I hope the energy does not take hold in Canada's primarily peaceful land. I thank G~d that Leonard didn't witness this. I shudder that Leonard's dear friends have. I ...

Re: Review of Jewish Museum Show A Crack in Everything

Jarkko ~ I'm hoping you may know the answer to this. With COVID increasing exponentially in the U.S., and the originally scheduled month for the beginning of this exhibit in San Francisco being January something, do you have any idea if the exhibit has been postponed indefinitely, or rescheduled for...

Joe Way... Did you eventually connect with your friend Mark? I hope so. That was a particularly dangerous period in NYC.
