{"product_id":"leonard-cohen-on-track","title":"Leonard Cohen On Track","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn enigma,\nLeonard Norman Cohen was possibly the most improbable bohemian intellectual\nsongwriter\/singer in music history. He was certainly the working-class hero,\nthe peoples' poet, the suicidal lamenter of doom and the purveyor of popular\nsongs. But the truth is even more complex. Throughout his life, there were\njuxtapositions of the most unlikely life choices and influences. To have\nfashioned a mishmash of ideas, styles and influences into a successful,\nlong-lasting musical career is nothing short of amazing. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e   He blended secular, mystical, sexual and\nreligious themes into ambiguous poetic tapestries and devised an intricate,\nunique musical style. He possessed a deep baritone voice that, although\nmesmerising, was sometimes in danger of sounding monotonous. Leonard was able\nto fuse these elements into a distinctive amalgam that somehow worked on many\nlevels. He did not look the part, play the game or conform to any rules, but\nLeonard touched hearts and minds all over the world, while writing some\nremarkable songs, including 'Halleluyah' and 'Suzanne'. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e   Focusing equally on this popular early\nalbums, his more experimental mid-period and his final, late-career\nrenaissance, this book analyses and interprets every album and every individual\nsong to shed light on the phenomenon of Leonard Cohen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonicbond Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54253871530328,"sku":"9781789523591","price":21.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781789523591_fe25a226-a01c-4fb5-bdcd-34e02b613b97.jpg?v=1778536846","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/leonard-cohen-on-track","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
