What rock music are you listening to? Non-Jazz, Non-Classical.

[Dave James]

Speaking of Leonard Cohen, I was reminded of one of the better Cohen covers, that being Jennifer Warnes' version of "First We Take Manhattan" featuring Stevie Ray Vaughn.

I’ve never really listened to him. What’s the best album to start off with?

You may start with “Live in London “ a double CD with a great band In concert. On YouTube there are a lots of clips of this album. I love his later albums more then his earlier but I have a sweet spot for old wise rock poets over young anger ones, a true rock poet improve ageing. I prefer today’s Patty Smith for instance. Another one I file among apostles and forgot to mention.

porcy62, I get your point on the "true rock poets improving over time". For me, that also happens with Lucinda Williams and Johnny Cash.

Rhino is using the above photo on their Atlantic Asylum Cd set coming out in October but that’s not the original cover art for his Atlantic albums.
