In the 80s, Cohen was on TV occasionally, but I knew him mostly from what the UK music press wrote about him (ooh, the clever metaphors, the made-up words).
Then I discovered that the Coil song 'Who By Fire' was a Cohen cover, so I acquired myself a greatest hits tape and was blown away.
The 'poet with guitar' format seems quite girly, but Cohen exposes raw emotion from a real male viewpoint (no macho posing), so for me it's very open and moving.
Still don't understand Sonny Rollins, though.

Rollins won't make much sense to you until you go to your local pawn shop, pick up a tenor saxophone, and try to play it yourself. (Like I did, a year ago). Do it. Then get back to me. (He does have a bit of an edgey sound on this cut).
