Well what if there were no broadcasts like that. The most popular show is Democracy Now with Amy Goodman. She sometimes plays Leonard Cohen's Democracy in between news stories. Radio Unnameable is another favorite. I'm sending Zachary's disc to the DJ Bob Fass. He was emcee at one of Leonard's earliest performances.

It does sound very interesting. I'm pretty sure with the two new stations we are getting that one of them is going have alot more 'talking' than what we've had in the past. Yes. We need to hear the hard stuff. Just sometimes it seems overwhelming. That is what music is for 8)
(David Barsamian hosts the program I mentioned earlier).

Glad to see you are passing on Zachary's cd too. If the DJ was a fan of Leonard's way back when, I bet he'd appreciate your Youtube film of the recent concert. Zachary really did Leonard proud. I guess you all are familiar with him from the events, so the clarity of performance was no big surprise. For me it was.
