Leonard Cohen Anthology (Pvg) Reviews:
Good to know - this is book of music notes... 
2008-05-20 - It is not really review of book (how can I actually review book written by man who is lights of years talented than me?). I just wanted to say - this is book of music notes for Leonard Cohen songs. Yesterday I received it and I was surprised. Have friend of mine who is musician - book will become a gift for him.
Wonderful work by Leonard Cohen
2008-02-26 - This Leonard Cohen Anthology is a wonderful collection of the great poet's work. Not all of his work, but much of it. The songs, to me, are wonderful and hypnotic. The price for the book is more than worth spending.
leonard cohen anthology 
2005-11-21 - This book is very good and does contain many sons which are difficult to come by, however it does not contain any guitar tablature as the description states.
Excellent selection presented well
2005-01-30 - The 43 songs in this book cover Leonard Cohen's work up through 1988, with his I'm Your Man album being the last one represented. While the 1969 book Songs of Leonard Cohen contained an essay and many photographs with vocal lines and guitar tablature from his first two albums, there are no photographs or extras in this collection.
This book presents vocal lines, guitar chords, and a grand staff for piano arrangements. The typography and layout are excellent, though the piano arrangements cause a number of songs to be run out for six, eight or ten pages. The 43 songs included represent a good cross-section of Cohen's most prolific period of songwriting.
The Singer Songwriter's Reference, A Must Have
2000-06-25 - As I have always been attracted to Leonard Cohen's mysterious poem and song writing; now I can and you too, experience the thrill of playing guitar or piano to Leonard's classic songs such as, Sister's of Mercy, Suzanne, Hey That's No Way to Say Goodbye, etc. We can do justice to these compositions since chord charts are provided making each page in this anthology easy to read with melodies - accurately -chord matched. In other words, it's not a fake book. Lyrics, though not text underlayed, can be manipulated under first verses, especially if you are a guitar player and are not in need of the piano treble and bass systems. Regardless, you won't be let down. Make this Anthology of Mr. Cohen's life's work masterpieces part of your creative library. Ok, I've gotta go now, Bird on A Wire is hovering over my guitar.
