Description:
This second compilation covers Leonard Cohen's career from 1984 to the present. Notably "Everybody Knows" and "Tower of Song," became well enough known to be essential choices in this collection. This set chooses four of the eight songs from the celebrated I'm Your Man album (and more might have been included) and four from its follow-up, The Future. One track, "Dance Me to the End of Love," comes from Various Positions, with another of that album's songs, "Hallelujah," included in a live version. There is also a live version of the Cohen standard "Suzanne," and there are two previously unreleased songs, the typically funny and erotic "Never Any Good" and the minute-long disembodied recitation "The Great Event." What's here chronicles both the continuance of Cohen's talent as a songwriter and the improvement in his deepened voice and record-making abilities in the second half of his career.
