As a New Generation Discovers Leonard Cohen's Dark Humour Kris Kirk Ruffles the Great Man's Back Pages by Kris Kirk
I stumbled out of bed. I got ready for the struggle. I smoked a cigarette, and I tightened up my gut. I said, This can't be me, must be my double. And I can't forget I can't forget I can't forget but I don't remember what. I Can't Forget I'm Your Man The following article is from Poetry Commotion, June 18, 1988. As a New Generation Discovers Leonard Cohen's Dark Humour Kris Kirk Ruffles the Great Man's Back Pages By Kris Kirk "The American attitude to Leonard Cohen is that I don't know how to sing -- 'These are great songs, sure is sad somebody else ain't singing 'em' - and that I'm marginal, totally outside the mainstream. It may finally be changing with this album, who knows? But I'm lucky I've always had a modest audience in Europe, otherwise I'd really be out of luck." Leonard Cohen chuckles. He chuckles a lot. Like his latest I'm Your Man album - with its famed "Lenny eats a banana" cover and its declaration (in "Tower of Song") that "I was born with the gift of a golden voice" - the so-called master of gloom is dead droll, particularly when he's sending himself up. "I agree this album's probably my best so far," he growls, lighting up yet another fag. "I think maybe I'm beginning to get the hang of it now." After how long? "Oh, after 20-odd years..." With a sell-out European tour culminating in a packed-to-the-gills additional third gig at the Royal Albert Hall, the rehabilitation -- resurrection from the dead -- of Cohen proceeds apace. -

Leonard Cohen: A Crack in Everything The Jewish Museum April 12 – September 8, 2019 Exhibition Wall Texts LEONARD COHEN: MOMENTS COMPILED BY CHANTAL RINGUET Topos_JM_LC_WallTexts_24p.indd 1 4/4/19 12:34 PM SEPTEMBER 21, 1934 BIRTH OF LEONARD NORMAN COHEN IN WESTMOUNT Born into a Westmount Jewish family that was part of Montreal’s Anglo elite, Leonard Norman Cohen was the second child of Masha Klinitsky- Klein and Nathan Bernard Cohen. Lyon Cohen, Leonard’s paternal grandfather, a well- known businessman and philanthropist, was an important figure in the Jewish community. He started the Freedman Company, one of the largest clothing manufacturers in Montreal, and cofounded the Canadian Jewish Times (1897), the first English- language Jewish newspaper in Canada. Lyon Cohen was also president of several organizations, including the Canadian Jewish Congress and Congregation Shaar Hashomayim. He helped Jewish immigrants from the Russian Empire settle in Canada—among them, from Lithuania, the learned Rabbi Solomon Klinitsky- Klein and his family. Lyon’s son, Nathan Cohen, a lieutenant in the Canadian army and World War I veteran, later ran the family business. From his father, the young Leonard inherited a love of suits; from his mother, Masha, who trained as a nurse, he received his charisma and his love of songs. Cohen’s well- to- do family was quite different from the Jewish masses who arrived in Montreal in the early twentieth century. Many of these immigrants spoke Yiddish as their native language and worked in garment factories. Despite his extensive travels and his residence in Los Angeles, Cohen always returned to Montreal to “renew his neurotic affiliations,” as he often repeated in interviews. -

Popular Music, Technology, and the Changing Media Ecosystem from Cassettes to Stream
POP MUSIC, CULTURE AND IDENTITY Popular Music, Technology, and the Changing Media Ecosystem From Cassettes to Stream Edited by Tamas Tofalvy · Emília Barna Pop Music, Culture and Identity Series Editors Steve Clark Graduate School Humanities and Sociology University of Tokyo Bunkyo-ku, Tokyo, Japan Tristanne Connolly Department of English St Jerome’s University Waterloo, ON, Canada Jason Whittaker School of English & Journalism University of Lincoln Lincoln, Lincolnshire, UK Pop music lasts. A form all too often assumed to be transient, commer- cial and mass-cultural has proved itself durable, tenacious and continually evolving. As such, it has become a crucial component in defining various forms of identity (individual and collective) as influenced by nation, class, gender and historical period. Pop Music, Culture and Identity investigates how this enhanced status shapes the iconography of celebrity, provides an ever-expanding archive for generational memory and accelerates the impact of new technologies on performing, packaging and global market- ing. The series gives particular emphasis to interdisciplinary approaches that go beyond musicology and seeks to validate the informed testimony of the fan alongside academic methodologies.

Kontakt s. 3 Leonard Cohen 2013_Press Kit 1 LEONARD COHEN – LEGENDARNY ARTYSTA WRACA DO POLSKI! Witany z olbrzymim entuzjazmem na całym świecie, genialny kanadyjski artysta Leonard Cohen, wystąpi na jedynym koncercie w Polsce, który odbędzie się w 19 lipca w Atlas Arena w Łodzi. Po trwającej prawie sześć dekad karierze, podczas której występował w wy- pełnionych po brzegi salach w najodleglejszych zakątkach świata, pisarz, poeta, trubadur i niezmiernie wpływowy artysta, po raz kolejny udowad- nia, że w każdym miejscu na naszej planecie fani wciąż czekają na jego koncerty. Od momentu zakończenia piętnastoletniej przerwy w występach na żywo i powrotu na scenę w 2008 roku, Leonard Cohen wciąż pokazuje, że nie stracił ani odrobiny energii, a jego najnowsze występy bez wątpie- nia przejdą do historii jako jedne z najważniejszych wydarzeń w dziejach muzyki. „Nie ma drugiego takiego artysty, który potrafiłby uwodzić publiczność, jak Leonard Cohen. Kiedyś cieszyłby się reputacją twórcy zdolnego uwieść każdą kobietę, dziś, w wieku 78 lat wykorzystuje swój talent ku innym celom, rzucając do swych stóp publiczność na całym świecie” – napisano w Financial Times. Cohen to bez wątpienia największy pieśniarz naszych czasów. W dniu przyjęcia go do Rock’n’Rollowego Hall of Fame, mogliśmy usłyszeć słowa Lou Reeda, który powiedział: „nie ulega najmniejszym wątpliwościom, że mamy do czynienia z najważniejszym i najbardziej wpływowym współcze- snym piosenkarzem, postacią, której twórczość zyskała z czasem niespoty- kaną głębię i tajemniczość.” Powrót Cohena do Polski to prawdziwe wydarzenie dla wszystkich fanów kanadyjskiego barda, jedyna okazja by zobaczyć to poruszające, wywołują- ce olbrzymie emocje i wzruszenie, widowisko.
