Re: Leonard in Eastbourne

Further info - I have found leonardcohenfiles.com and concerts.fandom.com both list the Eastbourne shows but with no venue specified . Is there a local Facebook group where you could ask the question ?

Re: Leonard in Eastbourne

An interesting quest ! I always look at setlist.fm for info about past shows , but its a wiki type website so it's not necessarily complete . They don't mention shows in Eastbourne but certainly list the famous Brighton shows . It appears Leonard was playing in Belgium on 01 September 74 and in Fran...

Re: What Leonard Cohen Song Are You?

Famous Blue Raincoat for me too. This is a beautiful cover too , by Tom Terrell and Rachel Sermanni. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aLXNRV8BFJk None to compare with Leonard of course , but anything involving Glen Hansard is worth a listen , he has a couple of good FBR covers on YouTube Hope you enjoy...

Re: BEST COVER VERSIONS OF A LEONARD COHEN SONG OF ALL TIME

I recently discovered this understated cover. Rachel Sermanni has a gorgeous voice , Ive only just discovered her , and Tom Terrell is Canadian , so probably has access to the soul of the song .. Hope the link works !

Best wishes , Steve

I was just reminded of the London concert six years ago this evening. Just thought it would be good to say hello to everyone who was there that evening , back in those wild and magnificent days. Would be brilliant if anyone still has easy access to pics from that evening. Mine are stored in obscurit...
