Leonard Cohen ‘Live in London’

-

These 2008 O2 Arena performanc­es not only deliver Cohen at a peak, they’re well recorded, a highlight being the divine backing vocals. We play the masterful Tower of Song in testing regularly, because his vocal tone ranges from the depths to the upper midrange, and we o¤en find systems struggle to hold it together, especially subwoofer and satellite systems, where a ‘dual Leonard’ e¦ect can occur.
