description: When his 1st album was released in 1967, Leonard Cohen was already well known in his native Canada as a poet &amp; novelist, &amp; in the USA as the writer behind Judy Collins' hugely popular recording of Suzanne. With the sucess of the 1st &amp; thru the release of 10 more albums, Cohen gained a reputation as a dazzlingly literate &amp; consistently daring songwriter. Over the years his status as a cult artist has grown. In 1988 the release of his album 'I'm Your Man' put Cohen back into the mainstream spotlight. His latest recording, 'The Future' has brought him renewed, widespread acclaim &amp; this collection will include lyrics from that album, together with many of his famous classics, such as Suzanne, Joan of Arc &amp; The Chelsea Hotel. Stranger Music brings together Cohen's song lyrics &amp; a generous selection of his poetry (originally published between 1956-92). It's a long overdue celebration of Leonard Cohen's extraordinary gift for language that speaks with rare clarity, passion &amp; timelessness.
