This clip is taken from the FULL DVD "Leonard Cohen Under Review 1934-1977". In 1977 Cohen decided to try a new style of music and started working with Phil Spector, a well known producer. Shortly after the beginning of the recording session Cohen discovered that Spector was a heavy drinker and was acting like a tyrant, arguing with Cohen on every musical decision.

  • I'm not too crazy about the whole album, but the album's best moments rank with Cohen's best work.

  • Love that record! Great sound, production and lyrics!

    Spec made Cohen sing and shout and show his feelings instead of just breathing into mic with his usual starbucks-friendly voice.I don't think Larry Levine should be apologising for it.

    I know lots of people who love that album.

    And as for "this record just sucks" guy? Fuck you,and your 4$ shirt, you fingersniffer -))))

  • I think the album has lots of great moments and a great sound.

    Why do people find this album so strange, while the keyboard overloaded, synthetic 'Various Positions' doesn't seem to be a problem at all for them? That 1980s album sounds as if Cohen ended up on some cheap label. And on the next two albums the synths are joined by a hoarse voice, without anyone complaining.
