In honor of Lady Lawanda, who continues on her expected course at hospice, surrounded and beloved by family and friends, today’s offering is an up tempo version of one of her favorite songs, Leonard Cohen’s “Suzanne,” performed by one of the singers she admired most, Nina Simone, in a manner that calls to mind (or at least to my mind) a church choir solo on a Sunday morning in June.
Credit Due Dept: While Lady L and I have listened to my MP3 version of this piece for some time, I was unaware that it was available on YouTube until I found it posted on Dance With Your Legs at Nina Simone doing Leonard Cohen
