That’s a great photo in the NYT. Two beautiful women and a Thompson? Living the dream.
And Lawrence: we should put “Battle Beyond the Stars” on the list.

Friday, November 11th, 2016Leonard Cohen. NYT. A/V Club to come. LAT. WP.
So much for that Nobel Prize in Literature.
More seriously: I was not one of those people who worshipped Mr. Cohen and his work. But I do like quite a bit of it, some of it in covers by other people (for example, “Closing Time” as covered by the Fairport Convention), some of it on his own. He had that kind of gravelly voice that worked really well for some things.
This is one of my favorite songs, period. Sorry I can’t embed, but that doesn’t seem to work on mobile.
