I can not wait for this! His last record was brilliant, and this sounds great.

Today is his 82nd birthday. I'll order his new record as a sort of birthday present to him.

The Billboard album chart being what it is these days, this new Leonard Cohen album debuted at #10. Impressive showing, nonetheless.

I was behind the curve on this release and now with his passing I need this immediately as a tribute to such a great artist.

I'm so so so bummed. I just rediscovered him after years away, and his recent work was brilliant. I know he was old, but I'm bummed nonetheless. God bless.
