Good new for those awaiting the release of more old Leonard Cohen from the days when he was still depressed and very much on the edge. In 2009, a CD/DVD package was released on Columbia of a concert that took place on The Isle Of Wight for the English version of Woodstock in 1970.
Both the CD & DVD are complete with many charming Leonard songs from his storied & timeless past like: "So Long Marianne" right after "Bird On A Wire." But this is not just another greatest hits…

I know this is not a new album...however it may deserve a second listen. I have enjoyed many hours of entertainment from this album that is something like reading one of Leonard's poetry books, but, with music accompanying it.
The music and songs on this album/CD took place mostly in the 60's & 70's. This was light years before Leonard went "Euro-tech" in the late 1980's with "I'm Your Man." As time has marched on I think I prefer this older Cohen although I did see his "Man"…

Most well known for his book and the film: "Naked Lunch", William Burroughs is probably the most entertaining writers/poets for an audio reading out of the entire "Beat Poet" group. You cannot escape the droll monotone sound of his voice which makes each poem endlessly fun in a very bizzare way.

Dana Spiardi said… Dear Tim - thanks for your nice words about my Bobbie Gentry piece! "Ode to Billie Joe" was one of my favorite songs from childhood. It seemed so spooky to me, and I love spooky things. The violins in that song give it such a haunting feel. Bobbie and Glen did record an album together in 1968. I saw Glen in Pittsburgh a few months back and he was AMAZING! Made me cry! Again, I appreciate your support. Dana

Tim- Thanks for staying in touch. I've send a Friend Request your way. I always tell interested folk that my primary claim to fame during my dozen active years in the music biz is working with the bass players for both Buddys--Buddy Holly AND Buddy Knox. I worked for Jimmy Bowen and Waylon Jennings. No wonder I'm writing and talking about those two legends almost 40(!) years later. By the way, both men wrote very good autobiographies.
