Leonard Cohen Special

Janice Forsyth explores the music and lyrics of one of her heroes, Leonard Cohen, accompanied by fellow fans Sylvie Simmons, John Archer and Stewart Cruickshank.

Leonard Cohen's music is a far cry from the bubble gum sound of 20th & 21st century pop, as he's often accused of creating music to "slit your wrists to". In a special edition of the Culture Cafe, Janice Forsyth calls an unofficial Leonard Cohen Appreciation Society meeting with three other fans - Sylvie Simmons, renowned music journalist, and author of I'm Your Man, The Life of Leonard Cohen; film & TV producer, John Archer, who made a 成人快手 Omnibus - Songs from the Life of Leonard Cohen; and music radio producer, Stuart Cruickshank. They dive into the peaks and troughs of the living legend's life and work.
