Leonard Cohen Getting His Licks In 1
Upon receiving this photo of Leonard Cohen from Christine Geyer, I instantly sensed there was something special about it.
Note the respect, gratification, and bemusement reflected in Cohen’s aspect as he contemplates the frozen novelty treat.

"Do I Have To Dance All Night" was performed many times in concerts but was never released in the US.
As part of my crusade to popularize this song, I've cobbled together 2 videos - one for the semi-funky 1976 version with Laura Brannigan and one for the 1980 more gypsy, less disco version - that kinda sorta fit the music.
Both videos include links to keys to the sources of the clips and the identities of the backup singers and others who are featured.

Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen had a fling in the 1960s that, for unspecified reasons, was short-lived, with Cohen instigating the parting.
It was then and is now a complex connection. In 1988, Cohen said, “I’m still very friendly with Joni - I had dinner with her before the tour, and I have the same admiration for her as you do. But I think it was Noel Harrison who came up to me in the LA Troubadour and said ‘How d’you like living with Beethoven?’”
