Description
For over four decades, Leonard Cohen has been one of the most important and influential songwriters of our time, a figure whose body of work achieves greater depths of mystery and meaning as time goes on. His songs have set a virtually unmatched standard in their seriousness and range.
Sex, spirituality, religion, power - he has relentlessly examined the largest issues in human lives, always with a full appreciation of how elusive answers can be to the vexing questions he raises. But those questions, and the journey he has traveled in seeking to address them, are the ever-shifting substance of his work, as well as the reasons why his songs never lose their overwhelming emotional force.
Documentaries, awards, tribute albums and the ongoing march of artists eager to record his songs all acknowledge the peerless contribution Cohen has made to what one of his titles aptly calls "The Tower of Song." In 2008 Leonard Cohen embarked on his first tour in 15 years. Quickly recognized as musical folklore in the making, 29 of the original dates sold out almost immediately, leaving fans and critics alike hailing the show as a once in a lifetime experience.
By popular demand, the Canadian/UK tour was extended and by the end of that year it had reached 84 markets worldwide, selling more than 700,000 tickets. The Live In London release fully captures and recreates the extraordinary show from that tour that earned Cohen more than 80 five-star reviews for his performances.

"Beautiful music and lyrics."
I 1st heard the cd that I borrowed from the library – it was so good I decided to by the DVD. Leonard Cohen is one of the best poets around along with Bob Dylan. The concert was so well done I would love to have been able to be there.
"A must for any collection"
This is a great DVD. Background music or sit down and watch. Can be played over and over
"My dad LOVES this!"
I bought this for my dad for christmas and was super excited when he opened it on Christmas morning.
"Excellent, we went to the Wellington concert and this great"
We went to the TSB Arena in Wellington, this is pretty much verbatim of the concert, excellent sound etc
