Not only was Leonard Cohen a full time singer and songwriter he also has several other 'hats'. He was a part time Buddhist monk as well as a poet. While his singing voice isn't the greatest ever, he has a sort of bluesy moan that makes up for it.

Cohen, 74 sings about his troubles but the way his feelings convey to the audience is definitely music to the ears. His bout at the London's O2 Arena was his first major live tour in about 15 years and his double live CD includes pictures and 26 songs for your enjoyment.

His album is a mix of both old and new songs, however getting a hold of his live material, unlike his studio CD's can be a little bit harder. Usually the live tracks are placed at the end of an album or on side B.

The sound quality on Leonard Cohen's 'Live in London' is amazing. "The definitive live version" is said to be what some internet based fans are calling many of the songs.

Bob Meztger, Roscoe Beck, Neil Larson, Rafael Bernardo and many others are the ones that help to make his background so smooth and amazing. Also the combination of him, the sisters Charley and Hattie Webb and Dino Soldo make it one of a kind.

Live In London- Leonard Cohen is captivating and brings the audience in. Go to CDWow if you are searching to buy the New Leonard Cohen CD.
