Cohen’s Recitation

Live in London is superior to Live in Dublin
Tonight I heard rumbles I had never heard before (I am putting it down to FLAC or the recording, not the introduction of the Core) ... I’d say they were kettle drums with muffled “sticks” played softly in a continuous roll ..... I thought I knew this piece ! Off to listen to other recordings !!

... or an organ ...

This is my benchmark ... the first time I heard the piece was in a cinerama theatre in ‘67?

And you can hear the effects of the movie production process in this recording as sections are focused / heightened to tie in with imagery / theme(s) ...

By contrast this recording differed from the 6 or 7 others I listened to by the use of a single drum at these points ...

Van Morrison returned - just 3 months after his prior album.

Love it ;-)

BM5000, BG5005, BC5000, BG(cd)5500 via MCP5000 w/ RL60.2. BC9500 via BL1000 w/ BL8000 + Beolit 15

I’m not CB, but Bruce. Definitely Bruce.

This is one of my few synthesizer Springsteen faves, but that Hot Chip version is really interesting.

And now the difficult actual question... Why?
