2016 just won't stop kicking us in the balls.
Now it's taken the great Leonard Cohen.
He ascended to the Tower of Song in the shy last night at the age of 82. He was writing and recording up to the end.
Remember the short-lived NBC show "Night Music?" This was one of the great performances that you could only see on that show with Leonard Cohen, Sonny Rollins and Was Not Was
Leonard didn't know it, and I discovered him way too late, but since that time he was my mentor with regard to my poetry and music. He spoke to me in ways that no one else has ever done. I will miss him terribly.
And Robert Vaughn.

ReplyDeletePoetry set to music. He will be missed by me, for sure.
