Will anybody own up to Lenard Cohen, (music to commit suicide to). I have just rediscovered him and his lastest stuff is really good.

Love him!

Someone bought a Cohen LP as a wedding present for my Dad's 2nd marriage!

So fitting ....

I am sure my first record was Guy Mitchell 'Singing the blues' am sure it was a 78. or it could have been 'African Waltz' Johnny Dankworth. Never bought an LP couldn't afford that at 10 bob a week to buy my nylons and go to pics and other rubbish including a f*g a day for 4d.
