Leonard Cohen live in Lisbon
Masterful, superb... it's easy to run out of superlatives to describe Leonard Cohen's concert yesterday at Pavilhão Atlântico. For close to three hours, his catalogue of classic songs was delivered with deep subdued feeling and insuperable precision. The band was perfect - is there any other word? - and Cohen himself, his voice intact, his body lean, presided over the show with majestic serenity like the high priest of song he is. Time flied, the audience roared and a beatific smile of elation and gratitude came over me.
