Canadian born Poet, Novelist and Songwriter Leonard Cohen was one of the most fascinating and enigmatic singer/songwriters of the late '60s. He retained an audience across six decades of music-making. More than 2,000 recordings of his songs have been made, initially by the folk-pop singers who were his first champions, like Judy Collins and Tim Hardin, and later by performers from across the spectrum of popular music, among them U2, Aretha Franklin, R.E.M., Jeff Buckley, Trisha Yearwood and Elton John.

Above all Cohen was an authentic and deeply creative human being. In his later years he spent time as a Zen Monk. In this episode we look at his thoughts on success, writing, talent and much more.

Was he not just great ? I am still listening to all his songs. And for me, he still sings for us in the tower of song

I've seen most of these before, but a lovely collection gathered into one place. Thank you. That final line in the Tower of Song feels so poignant now that he *is* gone. Gets me every time.
