Songs of Love and Hate

Released 1971Folk & Singer-Songwriter
Classic

A stark, intense peak of literary folk, home to 'Famous Blue Raincoat'. Dark and beautiful. One of his best. Released in 1971, it's a key entry in Leonard Cohen's run.

On vinyl: Vintage copies and modern reissues both circulate — worth comparing condition and remaster notes before you buy.
