Shades Of Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen Photos On DrHGuy

I often post photos on DrHGuy¹ that require little or no explanation. For reasons admittedly obscure to me now, I began publishing a series of shots, identified by the title, “Shades Of Leonard Cohen,”² which have become unaccountably popular.

Most of the specimens in this collection are photos of – well, photos of Leonard Cohen wearing sunglasses (I claimed these photos were popular, not profound) but also included are photos of backup singers Perla Batalla, Julie Christensen, Charley Webb, Hattie Webb, and Sharon Robinson behind those synecdochical Foster Grants. And, in the offing are other variations. Consequently, the official defining subtitle of “Shades Of Leonard Cohen” is the accurate albeit less than euphonious “Sunglasses Worn By Or Associated With Leonard Cohen.”

And, as implied by “in the offing,” I have in hand a small number of yet to be published photos from this category I will be posting in the near future.³

A New Leonard Cohen Exhibit

With the goals of organization and, more significantly, viewer convenience in mind, a new page has been added to the Heck Of A Guy Cohen compendium. A complete gallery of the posted photos featuring Cohen-affiliated smoky spectacles can be viewed at Collected Shades Of Leonard Cohen

Yes, I suppose one reason is that the grownups like Marie at Speaking Cohen and Jarkko at LeonardCohenFiles, snarfed up all the big stuff like the list of covers of Cohen’s songs and a concordance to his songs and books. That’s why Heck Of A Guy readers are stuck with material like a list of Leonard Cohen Nicknames, a page of Leonard Cohen Lookalikes, a Leonard Cohen Crossword Puzzle, … . Happily, some folks like opera, some folks like “Build Me Up, Buttercup,” and some folks like Weird Al Yankovic. [↩]
As always, I can use all the help I can get. Viewers aware of photos displaying sunglasses worn, owned, or spoken of by or otherwise associated with Leonard Cohen are urged to let me know of these by email or comment. [↩]
