Re: Remembering Leonard

I'm trying to let the gratitude outweigh the sorrow. Copying what I've posted on my blog. Seven Years Seven years. Seven years. I find it so hard to comprehend how it is seven years since Leonard departed. Seven years, but feels like yesterday. The pain as raw as ever. The gratitude profoundly stron...

Re: Today is Leonard’s 89th birthday…and the second year of silence

For some 18 years I had the pleasure and privilege of corresponding with Leonard. In 2011 he hired me to assist with certain aspects of his tour, his recordings and publications. After his passing, I continued to work for the estate. If he were here today, this is what I would tell him. Happy birth...

Re: Hallelujah: Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song,” Daniel Geller and Dayna Goldfine

It's showing a few times a day this week in The Savoy in Dublin. I saw it today. Was apprehensive because I'm not a fan of most covers of this song . However I really enjoyed it, and was very emotional at times. Oh what I would give to be able to read all the 80 verses, and all the notebook snippets.

Re: Random LC moment I am adoring today

I'm away for a week, in Co. Kerry, Ireland, and this morning at my hostel, while having breakfast, and chatting to another guest about Leonard, I hear Anthem on the radio! A local radio station, which isn't usually my taste.

Re: Leonard Cohen: previously unpublished novel to be released in autumn

Feeling completely desolate yesterday morning, about the current chaos and confusion on our planet, while listening to Leonard, I thought to myself how much I miss him, and that I wish he was still here to help us navigate the awfulness that is around. The announcement of this book could not have ca...

Horrified to hear this. Relief that the perpetrator was apprehended.

Re: From the front row: A fan's perspective

I've always admired your photography. Some of these are outstanding. They're all great, and very many unique ones. Thank you for sharing. I keep meaning to revisit mine, but I'm still broken. I will though.

Re: Dick Straub has passed away

I'm so sorry to tear this sad news. Condolences to Linda, and all his family and friends. My favourite memory is when he and Linda organised the dinner in New York in 2013, and for giving us a look inside The Chelsea Hotel.
