Leonard Cohen - Songs of Love and Hate (Exclusive White Vinyl)

Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Leonard Cohen's 'Songs Of Love and Hate' with this limited white vinyl edition produced for RSD Black Friday 2021.

While the title Songs of Love and Hate sums up the album's themes accurately enough, it's hardly as simple as that description might lead you to expect on Leonard Cohen's 1971 album. In these eight songs, "love" encompasses the physical ("Last Year's Man"), the emotional ("Famous Blue Raincoat"), and the spiritual ("Joan of Arc"), and the contempt in songs like "Dress Rehearsal Rag" and "Avalanche" is the sort of venom that can only come from someone who once cared very deeply.

Songs of Love and Hate is one of Leonard Cohen's most emotionally intense albums, which, given the nature of Cohen's body of work, is no small statement.Widely regarded as one of Cohen's best album, it's absolutely essential listening to anyone interested in his work.

Exclusive heavyweight OPAQUE WHITE vinyl produced by Columbia Records in celebration of RSD Black Friday 2021. Only 5000 copies worldwide. It features updated / re-typeset embossed packaging that includes a brand new eight page, 12x12 lyric booklet.
