28) "The Mid-Morning Recording"            Leonard Cohen-'Songs of Leonard Cohen'
A few days ago, Leonard Cohen played up in Austin, and sadly I could not make it. I have been listening to his music around the house these days, so I decided this is a good time as any to play the debut release from Mr. Cohen. Certainly one of my favorites from him, mainly for the amazing and beautiful, "So Long Marianne". One of my all-time favorite songs. Maybe one day I'll see him perform live, and this MMR goes out to all my friends that have. "So long Marianne. It's time that we began to laugh, and cry, and cry, and laugh about it all again".
Michael - MFL
