Leonard Cohen
"Leonard Cohen Sings Leonard Cohen"
BBC In Concert 1968

This two-part recording is taken from a BBC TV In Concert, originally broadcast in 1968; part 1 on 31st August 1968, and part 2 the following week on 7th September 1968. It is one of the earliest concert performances in existence, with earlier recordings mainly poem recitals.

Performances here include both solo and accompanied songs mainly from Cohen's first album "Songs of Leonard Cohen" released the previous year and a couple from "Songs from a Room" released in 1968.

Finally I have included a rare Top Gear Radio Session complete with commentary by John Peel.
