Movie Reviews of Live In London
Movie Review: Leonard Cohen Live In London
Summary: 5 Stars
Leonard Cohen's Live In London is an incredible Album in every way. With a quiet salute of his hand and a warm smile he greets his audience with humor, recognition of their grasp of what he is about to perform and a humbleness that becomes a person who has lived hard and well in his 80 plus years.
Then the marvelous orchestra begins with individual muscians thrilling all of the audiance with their perfect skill and magic sounds. Mesmorized we listen to the gravity of the words he sings and knowingly nod our understanding of all he is teaching us. The DVD album is the best I have seen and leaves all who see it indelible musing long after having watched the performances.
This performance by Leonard Cohen, his singers, (Manhattan Sisters of Mercy), and his outstanding Orchestra, is a magic musical experience you will play over and over again, marvaling at the total grasp of his muscianship.

Summary of Live In London
For over four decades, Leonard Cohen has been one of the most important and influential songwriters of our time, a figure whose body of work achieves greater depths of mystery and meaning as time goes on. His songs have set a virtually unmatched standard in their seriousness and range. Sex, spirituality, religion, power - he has relentlessly examined the largest issues in human lives, always with a full appreciation of how elusive answers can be to the vexing questions he raises. But those questions, and the journey he has traveled in seeking to address them, are the ever-shifting substance of his work, as well as the reasons why his songs never lose their overwhelming emotional force. Documentaries, awards, tribute albums and the ongoing march of artists eager to record his songs all acknowledge the peerless contribution Cohen has made to what one of his titles aptly calls "The Tower of Song."In 2008 Leonard Cohen embarked on his first tour in 15 years. Quickly recognized as musical folklore in the making, 29 of the original dates sold out almost immediately, leaving fans and critics alike hailing the show as a once in a lifetime experience. By popular demand, the Canadian/UK tour was extended and by the end of that year it had reached 84 markets worldwide, selling more than 700,000 tickets. The Live In London release fully captures and recreates the extraordinary show from that tour that earned Cohen more than 80 five-star reviews for his performances.
