New Cohen Live CD/DVD Information
Because some may have missed it, I’m reprinting yesterday’s comment by David about the soon to be released Leonard Cohen CD.
Leonard Cohen’s first album in five years, Live in London, will be released on March 31 via Columbia. The 2-CD/26-track set was recorded last July 17 at London’s O2 Arena during his world tour. A DVD will be released on the same day.
This is Cohen’s first release since 2004’s Dear Heather and the fourth live album of his career.
The troubadour’s career has been very active over the last year with his world tour selling over 700,000 tickets at 84 shows and his song Hallelujah being the biggest selling British single of 2008 by X-Factor winner Alexadra Burke. At the same time, the Jeff Buckley version went to number two and Cohen’s original went to 36.

I would add that a streaming video of one track, “Suzanne,” is available at Amazon.com. Amazon has also made the album available for pre-order.
