On Valentine’s Day, Heck Of A Guy offers a tale of romance replete with lovers galloping through the French countryside, an idyllic auberge in Provence, danger, music, Leonard Cohen, and, believe it or not, living happily ever after (well, at least 40+ years so far).
This is the story of Susan Musmanno, one of Lenard Cohen’s backup singers, and Elkin “Bubba” Fowler, a guitarist in Cohen’s band, who met, fell in love, courted, and became a couple during the 1970 Leonard Cohen Tour.
There is also information about how the 1970 Tour band was put together and how the backup singers were hired, more about the horseback ride to the concert, and, of course, much more including reflections on Leonard Cohen.

I had to move this thread here - it is not exactly the news being from 1970!
