Cohen, Leonard - Songs Of Love And Hate
Cohen, Leonard - Songs Of Love And Hate
NEW VINYL LP ON SONY 2016
180 gram vinyl.
Though Leonard Cohen had already established himself as the doyen of doom with his first two albums, his third Songs of Love And Hate finds him kicking off the 1970s with the sharpest rendition of the '60s peace-and-love/flower-power ethic the world had yet seen from the 'sensitive troubadour' corner of the music map. Though it's not really a concept album, Songs of Love And Hate feels like a guided tour through one man's scarred love life. The emotional degradation of "Avalanche", the suicidal frenzy of "Dress Rehearsal Rag" and the bitter regret of "Last Year's Man" all sound like stops on the same ill-fated journey. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Cohen
