{"product_id":"live-in-london-6","title":"Live in London","description":"After taking a decade-and-a-half vacation from live performance, septuagenarian singer\/songwriter\/saint Leonard Cohen returned to the stage in 2008 for a European tour. During his absence, his popularity had grown to such a degree that his London concert took place at the city's O2 Arena. With the gathered masses sounding suitably enraptured, Cohen can be heard delivering a long program that serves as both career summary and mission reiteration on this double-length live album (FYI, there's also a DVD companion release).\u003cbr\u003eAmazingly, Cohen sounds even more vital and intense than the last time he strode the boards, back in the mid-'90s. For all the high-powered cover versions over the years, his cavernously deep voice remains the most effective instrument for delivering his poetic incantations, looming large over a subtle, sympathetic band. He invests '60s classics like \"Suzanne\" and \"Bird on a Wire\" with new energy, underlining their continued relevance, while establishing a place in the canon for latter-day gems like \"Anthem\" and \"Democracy,\" all the while punctuating his performance with carefully placed quips that show his trademark black humor to be in full effect.","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46296527339807,"sku":"886976924928","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/32542c5dde5414f52fee13693cf1624d_8c501ac7-669d-4b7e-b2ef-c90d79fafd99.jpg?v=1778334698","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/live-in-london-6","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
