Songs Of Light & Darkness Written By Leonard Cohen

'I?ve never gotten over the pleasure of someone covering one of my songs, which probably stems from coming up as a folksinger where it was understood that songs develop a patina through interpretation. I feel that?s the mark of excellence,' Leonard Cohen once said. Of all the CDs we have released since 2018, 'Hallelujah: The Songs Of Leonard Cohen' (CDTOP 1544) is the best seller. By popular demand, here?s our second selection of Cohen covers, including versions of two songs never recorded by the man himself.
