Re: Pre release streaming in Europe...and worldwide

Re: Pre release streaming in Europe...and worldwide
I'm finding the negative comments about the production and arrangements tiresome. Thankfully, LC has been joyfully indifferent to the idea of making facsimile renditions of songs that have been aired on stage. Thank God he's not one of those artists who "asks the fans what they want", whic...

Re: Tom Jones discusses leonard cohen on BBCTV 27-5-12

Re: HOP FARM (UK), 8 SEPT ON GENERAL SALE
£85??!! You have got to be kidding! I've seen LC three times, and it was worth every penny, but there's no way I'm forking out 85 quid. Daylight robbery.

Re: Isle of Wight release (Oct 20) - all details
