Leonard Cohen: Live, BBC Television Theatre, London, Summer 1968 (Repost)

* "There's No Reason..." and "...Goodbye" updated.

Vintage Leonard Cohen. Live at the BBC Television Theatre (aka Paris Theare), London, Summer 1968, playing songs from the essential 1967 debut, Songs of Leonard Cohen. Set broadcast on 31 August 1968. Really good quality, and nothing beats Cohen as a folkie. Must have for all Cohen fans.

Bird On The Wire
The Stranger Song
So Long Marianne
The Master Song
There's No Reason Why You Should Remember Me
Sisters Of Mercy
Teachers
Dress Rehearsal Rag
Suzanne
Hey, That's No Way To Say Goodbye

Hi, I cant download the files. They are not in mp3 format, they are in html. Or maybe is just me.


Thanks anyway.

Great Blog.

Just right click and save as. I can download them just fine.

It does appear as if there is some problem with downloading from the server (ezarchive!). For now, everyone just has to be content with playing the songs off the site, and keep checking back to see if they have got their act together. Oh my!

Update: Moved the files elsewhere. Now downloadable.

I too am having problems downloading the songs. They come up as web pages to download, except for the first one, where I just get a message that the file is gone.

Hope it can be fixed; thanks for providing these!!!

Uum... You've got the track listing wrong, "Teachers" comes after "Sisters Of Mercy". Thanks for the gig and keep up the good work.

Fantastic bootleg. I've had this for some years now and always come back to it, (no Always Coming Back To You pun intended!)
By the way, Buffer Low is right about the track order. Thanks though, and keep 'em coming.

Hi, Great Blog! as always.

I, too, can't get hold of tracks #6 (There's No Reason You Should Remember Me) or #11 (Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye.)

I am uploading the rest to sendspace.

Please do the same with those tracks if you can.

Thanks,
