Jayne, “At The End Of The Line” always stops me dead in my tracks. It’s uplifting in the most home-spun down-to-earth kind of way. I want it to go on and on. It’s so tightly woven lyrically and musically. There are so many things about that song and about that group of musicians that makes them (the songs and the artists) enduring.
I noticed the empty chair for Roy Orbison. I’ve seen the video many times before but don’t remember him not being there. It also makes me think of the two other chairs now empty... It cheered me with some left over : ) Thanks.
In certain circumstances, my unlikely cup of tea for cheering is Leonard Cohen. Yes, he can be reverential... But it is in his nature to be a strange brew of what’s holy, physically and spiritually.
Here is one of those lesser known Cohen “uplifts” delivered downbeat, performed live in London at what was arguably his finest live performance of his life.
