  • My contribution to Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto's Leonard for Lent - a month long series of Cohen themed sermons and musical offerings.
    ‪@MCCTorontoTV‬
    I love the iconic original, but have always felt that Len's songs got short shrift in the studio. I am all for understated, tasteful production, but thought this tune deserved a lot more contrast and saturation to bring out the graphic, tough, occasionally vulgar and violent nature of the lyric...
    I also got a little carried away with the video. All they expected was what I did this time last year, a quarantine vid delivered from my couch... what a difference a year makes. Particularly a year of isolation - I might be going a little crazy.
    Thanks to Kim Carr @kimbocarr for filming it, and playing with me... and thanks to Toronto's MHC Vintage (555 Parliament Street) for letting me play with their mannequins.

    I met Tristan and Marc Martel here in Buenos Aires (backstage). Not only is he an amazing musician but I can assure you, he's VERY cool and outgoing. He allowed us to take pictures with my little girl and me. Hope to see you guys upon return.

    Stellar! Quite literally: great performances, musically, in front of the camera, and great production...loved the 'Threepenny Opera' flavour of the section in the middle. Great song, natch...your choice? Perfect! Kim looks a bit like my old friend Lesley Young, who may still be in England, had to check in the credits. Cheers to your company of - holy crap!! - TWO!!

    Tristan Avakian seems fitter and more well-dressed than most, and this was an interesting choice of material to cover in this TERRIBLE time of disease, surveillance, and injections.
